CIRRUS AUTOMATED CASE PICKING SYSTEMS

A SEAMLESS, HIGHLY PRODUCTIVE PICKING EXPERIENCE…THE CIRRUS AUTOMATED CASE PICKING SYSTEM.

ACCURATELY PICK ALL SKUS WITH ONE AUTOMATED SOLUTION. A FINISHED, FULLY PALLETIZED PALLET OF ORDERS WITH THE CIRRUS AUTOMATED CASE PICKING SYSTEM.

Cirrus Tech has spent over 20 years successfully implementing case picking systems from directed/voice picking to fully automated case picking systems where layers of product are placed in the system, and they are not touched until a fully built pallet is ready to be put on the truck.

For distributors with a 9+ million case volume size, The Cirrus Automated Case Picking System is a perfect fit. This solution includes a pick module to pick mid-volume to lower-volume SKUs, a high-speed picking area to pick layers of highvolume products and palletizer(s) to automatically palletize the finished pallet of orders. This system eliminates the need to pick orders conventionally in a pick path and automates the entire picking process. As with all of our solutions, each system is built for each client’s warehouse/distribution center and all designs are based off of Cirrus’ extensive evaluation of the client’s SKU profile and order data.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE CIRRUS AUTOMATED CASE PICKING SYSTEM:

• 100% picking and placing product on conveyor with no conventional pick path picking

Cirrus Tech’s “Crane,” Cirrus WMS and Cirrus Directed Picking have helped us in all areas of the warehouse.

    The Cirrus Tech Crane System not only saved us from doing a costly expansion, it also helped us organize our warehouse in a manner that put efficiencies in places that we would have never realized by building a new warehouse.

    The Cirrus Tech Crane System provided our company an opportunity to consolidate an entire warehouse (Norfolk, NE) into the existing warehouse here in Fremont, NE.  It will incorporate 5 years of growth while providing less than a 5 year ROI with the efficiencies of the system.

    The Cirrus Crane System will increase our available pallet storage significantly. When we take into account the organization and many efficiencies the system will bring, this will be a real game changer for us in our warehouse.

    The Crane System is the right fit for our operation. We will be able to build the expansion, place The Crane System inside of it and maximize the clear height to go 5 pallets high in the system. Because of the additional space savings, we will be able to absorb another operation into our existing building and still have optimal room for future growth. Cirrus is the industry leader in Crane System implementations in the beverage industry and we look forward to our partnership for years to come.
