Our Solutions

Twinlode Automation helps warehouses become more efficient and productive through automation. Based on your unique requirements, we will supply the automation capabilities you need to streamline your overall business operations. We offer several automated material handling and storage systems for increased efficiency and productivity, including:

  • Automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS): ASRS automates the storage and retrieval processes of products, items, and parts. Our ASRS solutions include structural steel racking, computer-controlled systems, and robotics that keep the product flow continuous across the supply chain.
  • Layer picking: Layer picking systems are designed for high-volume staging and mixing applications. Automated layer picking allows businesses to accept higher order volumes, reduce errors, and increase efficiency and flexibility.
  • Palletizing: Palletization builds pallets automatically by using palletizer robotics. Optimize the production line while improving your pick accuracy, cycle times, and throughput.
  • Automated guided vehicles (AGVs): AGVs are self-guided robots that navigate warehouses to perform material handling tasks. Automate and optimize the logistics in your warehouse while reducing your labor costs.
  • Conveyor: Our conveyor systems are customizable conveyor solutions to transport various material types within your warehouse. Available for pallet or case loads, conveyor systems are utilized in many applications to transport loads for unloading and loading.

Our conveyor systems are customizable conveyor solutions to transport various material types within your warehouse. Available for pallet or case loads, conveyor systems are utilized in many applications to transport loads for unloading and loading.

Twinlode Automation has a variety of racking systems for pallets, cases, and special loads to increase warehouse storage capacity. We help you plan and implement material handling systems for new facility layouts, reconfigure existing systems, and plan First-In First-Out (FIFO) and Last-In First-Out (LIFO) inventory management methods. Our pallet storage solutions include:

  • Selective storage: Selective storage solutions allow you to access every stored pallet at any time. They have low pallet storage density and low costs, making them ideal for small-scale warehouses as well as large-scale operations.
  • Pallet flow: Pallet flow helps products move to the picking position, which is ideal for FIFO stock, high volume, and multiple SKU applications.
  • Push back: Push back racks allow storage of two to five pallets deep while keeping all the SKUs accessible. This system has high throughput for high-density same-side picking and loading.
  • Drive-In/Drive-Thru: Drive-In and Drive-Thru pallet racks optimize the floor area and height in your warehouse to store palletized loads efficiently. This system features deep lane storage for high-density requirements.
  • Case/carton flow: Case flow or carton flow provides ergonomic put-a-way. It takes advantage of gravity to replenish pick faces by using an inclined conveyor to move products to the front. This high-density system is ideal for carton picking and light goods.
  • Keg flow racking: Keg flow racking is the preferred storage system for breweries and beer distributors. It improves storage density and delivery by maximizing space.
  • Gen2: Gen2 is a structural racking system for warehouses in areas with high seismic activity. In addition to meeting stringent requirements for stability, it is flexible for expanding, reconfiguring, and moving at any time, and its closed tube design provides maximum impact resistance.
  • Cantilever: Cantilever solutions are made for long, oddly shaped, or bulky items. They utilize space strategically with single- or double-sided access.
