Small, but powerful! Focus on intralogistics load carriers
Systematic coordination of staff and goods within intralogistics to make them a coherent unit comes with its fair share of challenges. Successful internal logistics requires implementation of a series of strategies and processes that make the transportation of goods within a company as efficient as possible.
Selection of the correct container system is of the utmost importance when ensuring things run smoothly. As a core element, it is the fundamental infrastructure for powerful, networked storage logistics.
Airbus trusts Fb Industry Automation with major order
For the new A321 XLR long-haul aircraft, Airbus is looking to automate production by using the innovative, flexibly scalable Fb Compact Warehouse (=automated small parts warehouse) from Fb Industry Automation. Manufacture of the rear fuselage in the new assembly hangar in Hamburg takes place with the customised automated small parts warehouse.
The Fb Compact Warehouse is flexibly scalable incl. upstream and downstream conveyor connections to incoming/outgoing goods as well as material flow control.
Everything you need to know about intralogistics
Intralogistics refers to all of the logistics processes and procedures undertaken within a company or an organisation. These include, among others, the internal planning, organisation, control and implementation of the various flows of materials and information. As an essential element of modern logistics, its relevance continues to grow as well.
This article will provide a detailed look at intralogistics and its importance for companies, the “7 Rs” principle of logistics, the various subsections and the key tasks covered undertaken by intralogistics.
LEHNER electronics – Automated Small Parts Warehouse (AS/RS)
Since its establishment in 1997, LEHNER electronics has stood for quality and reliability in the areas of cable systems and the manufacture of electromechanical assemblies.
The Fb Compact Warehouse, a tailor-made Automated Small Parts Warehouse (AS/RS) in connection with the Automed Guided Vehicles (AGV) are the heart of the new building. Thanks to the good partnership, all of the customer’s wishes and requirements could be perfectly implemented.
Nagel Maschinen- & Werkzeugfabrik GmbH – Automated Small Parts Warehouse
Find out more about the possibilities of an automated small parts warehouse with different rack heights. In order to be able to use the space available at NAGEL Maschinen- und Werkzeugfabrik GmbH in the best possible way, the Fb Compact Warehouse was individually developed and implemented. Small parts up to 120kg can now be transported automatically with shuttles and picked with maximum performance.
Individual Degree of Automation
When does which degree of automation make sense? The unparalleled flexibility of Fb Industry Automation even allows for step-by-step integration of the automation processes into the existing storage logistics. We discuss the best possible approach and the individual service phases with you, taking a customised approach to the requirements of your company.
Fb Stash – The storage management software for your success.

The high-performance software ties together the individual elements of the Fb 360+ intralogistics complete solutions.
Customised Intralogistics
Werner Frissenbichler, CEO of Fb Industry Automation, about the opportunities for companies with customised intralogistics automation.
From the ideal procedure for automating warehouse logistics to the perfect warehouse of the future, different ways for a sustainable competitive advantage are discussed.
Automated High-Bay Warehouse
Rapid developments in the high-tech sector – keyword Industry 4.0 – require automated intralogistics complete solutions with excellent flexibility and scalability. An automatic high-bay warehouse fulfils these requirements and, as a high-performance system, individually adapts to your framework conditions.
Automated Small Parts Warehouse vs. Storage and Retrieval Machine.
Warehouse processes are typically handled by a storage and retrieval machine (SRM) or an intralogistics shuttle. While an SRM scores points with consistent material flows and low maintenance, transport shuttles impress with their flexibility. They manage, for example, various hall heights, long transport routes and changing throughput requirements. In an emergency with an SRM, entire warehouse aisles fail. In addition, both the storage and picking performance are limited.
“The Retrofit Revolution”
Upgrade existing intralogistics systems instead of “scrapping” them. An article in the special publication “Technische Logistik” (“Technical Logistics”, MM Logistik/Huss Medien) presenting novel approaches to warehouse logistics by Fb Industry Automation. With a customised retrofit solution, companys can react flexibly and quickly to dynamic market and business developments. An outdated system can ths be inexpensively adapted to new requirements.
