Buffering and Sequencing Systems

Automated Solutions That Save Time, Space and Money

The Automated Buffering and Sequencing Solutions typically use one or more of the following technologies provided by System Logistics: Stacker Cranes, Mini-loads, Vertical Lift Sequencers (VLS) and Inserter/Extractors with Horizontal Carousels. These solutions are used in a large variety of applications, including manufacturing sequencing for high volume assembly operations, shipping buffers supporting shipment of individually selected case goods, cross-dock operations and tote / case order consolidation shipping operations. Cartons or totes are automatically dispatched using efficient algorithms which manage the sequencing of materials to the required destination.

The benefits of Automated Buffering and Sequencing Systems are many:

  • Direct and indirect labor savings
  • Space savings
  • Inventory reduction and accuracy
  • Increased order accuracy
  • Increased throughput
  • Increased available order window
  • Real time order status
  • Reduced workers’ compensation rates
  • Minimized product damage
  • No manual lifting or handling of heavy loads
