Mixvill Villamossági Keresked?ház, one of Hungary’s leading distributors of electrical and construction-related products, has commissioned Jungheinrich to automate its new logistics centre in Debrecen. The greenfield site will house an automated miniload warehouse with more than 60,000 container locations, from which Mixvill will supply both trade customers and end customers.
Mixvill trades in electrical and construction-related products at both wholesale and retail level. Its existing warehouse logistics have reached their capacity limits, and its processes across the different areas require a new approach. With the new building, the company is now bringing these processes together at one site, standardising them and creating headroom for further growth.
The automated miniload warehouse spans four aisles across roughly 1,500 square metres and stands 14.5 metres high. One stacker crane per aisle handles the storage and retrieval of the containers. The warehouse will operate five days a week in two shifts.
Jungheinrich is supplying everything from a single source: the racking structure, the stacker cranes, the container conveyor system including the workstations, plus control technology and visualisation. The conveyor system links the goods-in stations, goods-out and a dedicated workstation for B2C orders to the warehouse. The Jungheinrich Warehouse Management System (WMS) manages stock and orders.
