Intelligent flow in and around cooling tunnels

Customer

The customer is a leading dairy products manufacturer.
Challenge

The customer wanted to automatically route products to one of four cooling tunnels using intelligent algorithms, while guaranteeing full traceability of every product. Each cooling tunnel is 32 meters long and required an advanced conveyor system. The solution also had to be seamlessly integrated into the existing multi-level production environment. The system needed to handle both Euro pallets and industrial pallets.
Solution

Motus Handling designed a system that automatically directs each pallet to the appropriate cooling tunnel based on product type and tunnel occupancy. Using barcode tracking, the system monitors in real time where each pallet is located, how long it has been in the tunnel, and how much cooling time remains.

All information is continuously exchanged with the customer's WMS, ensuring seamless integration between manufacturing and storage operations. Motus Handling also integrated a lift system, transfer units, contour checks, wrapping, and labeling. The complete solution was delivered as a turnkey project.
Result

A fully automated cooling tunnel logistics solution with an increased and automated flow of up to 120 pallets per hour to the warehouse, delivering error-free handling, complete traceability, and seamless integration into the existing production environment.
