Rugged RF terminals aid efficiencyApril 1st 2004
Irelands largest food and grocery distributor, Musgrave Group uses warehouse management software (WMS) developed by Aquitec, in conjunction with hardware from Belgravium at its first custom-built facility in Northern Ireland. The warehouse has 17,500 pallet locations and throughput averages over 200,000 cases per week.
The RF hardware consists of a combination of handheld and truck-mounted terminals of rugged design. Belgravium terminals have integral on-board heating components which are particularly useful in the chilled areas of the warehouse. Radio coverage is retained on a continual basis and battery life between charges is maximised.
The system enables complete accountability of warehouse operative movements, and this information is monitored and evaluated regularly to ensure optimum efficiency.
