Dürkopp Fördertechnik has recently completed the design and installation of a hanging garment storage and sortation system for ASDA George’s Northern Regional Distribution Centre in Washington, North-East England. The design is similar to the system installed in ASDA’s Northampton facility, and with clients such as Debenhams, Next, Marks and Spencer and John Lewis, Dürkopp re-enforces its reputation as market leader in the retail fashion distribution sector.
The Washington project covers 54,000m2 over five floors, providing storage for around three million hanging items. Deliveries are processed through six goods-in doors, each equipped with telescopic booms to enable staff to unload vehicles quickly and efficiently. The latest RFID chip technology allows garment carriers to be conveyed and tracked automatically to their designated storage area. Dürkopp’s Conveyor Control System interfaces with the ASDA Walmart WMS to provide seamless, real time stock management and control.
Automatic interfloor conveyors take incoming items to level buffers before being transferred to their storage locations. Bar code data and transponders provide the Durkopp system with all movement and stock information, available throughout the warehouse on PC monitors.
When stock orders are received, goods are batch picked and auto-sorted via two high-speed single item sortation systems for some 160 regional stores, with items being sorted into store friendly sequence. This means that garments are presented to retail staff ready for the shop floor, ensuring the same consistent and high standard of presentation and minimising labour costs.
With ASDA George’s round the clock operations, fast technical response and service are vital. Dürkopp offers a 24-hour Help Desk and monitoring centre, manned by specialist engineers able to access the system remotely, diagnose potential threats and suggest preventive maintenance. Should a system malfunction, the Help Desk, together with a well-established UK support team, will provide rapid response to ensure minimum downtime and maximum productivity.
