DAMBACH Lagersysteme: Modernisation And Service

If you have a forklift-operated warehouse, you don’t have to build a new one to benefit from modern automation technology. With LOGI-KIT, DAMBACH offers a cost-effective automation solution for existing warehouses. Existing buildings and infrastructure remain usable to the greatest extent possible, and installation can be carried out in phases while operations continue. With a DAMBACH retrofit, you’ll get an upgrade for your warehouse: higher performance, maximum availability, and future-proof technology.

Automated high-bay warehouses with a service life of more than 20 years require modernization. An assessment is conducted to evaluate existing control systems and inspect mechanical components. In collaboration with the customer, comprehensive retrofit concepts are developed to optimize warehouse operations—ensuring they are future-proof and cost-effective.

Automation of the Inventory Warehouse

From a forklift-operated rack warehouse to an automated storage system

No new construction is necessary. LOGI-KIT automates existing buildings with heights of up to 14 m cost-effectively and, in some cases, without interrupting operations. Depending on the configuration, the existing racking can even continue to be used.

Modernization and Retrofit

We are happy to assist with the modernization of existing warehousing and material handling systems. We’ll help you bring your existing high-rack warehouse up to the current state of the art. In consultation with you, we’ll replace necessary components and ensure compliance with new regulations. Depending on the scope of the project, we offer the following services:

Installation of new conveyor system components
Overhaul of existing warehouse equipment, including the replacement of entire storage and retrieval machines
Implementation of new material flow control systems and warehouse management software
Transfer of current safety regulations
Modification of racking systems or workstations

Automation of Existing Warehouses
LOGI-KIT

LOGI-KIT is the ideal automation solution for existing buildings. Whether you’re using manual warehouse operations with wide-aisle or narrow-aisle forklifts, retrofitting automation for pallets and small parts makes your logistics operations future-proof. Manufacturers, retailers, and logistics service providers all benefit equally from LOGI-KIT.

Whether you’re looking to fully automate your existing warehouse using LOGI-KIT or retrofit your existing high-bay warehouse—together, we’ll determine the most cost-effective and suitable solution for you, taking all factors into account.

As an independent manufacturer of warehousing and material handling technology with over 50 years of experience, we are happy to assist with the refurbishment of existing high-bay warehouses. Whether you’re looking to retrofit existing warehouses with automation or modernize your current equipment, our experts will help you make the right decision by conducting an initial analysis.

The use of forklifts does not preclude subsequent automation using storage and retrieval machines (SIR-machines). Mixed operation with forklifts and SIR-machines in separate aisles is also possible. In certain cases, a combination of manual and automated warehouse operations may be the more cost-effective solution. The simultaneous use of forklifts and automated stacker cranes in an area that is not physically separated—for example, in the same aisle—is not possible due to safety regulations.

Thanks to standardized load carriers (pallets or containers), a wide variety of warehouses—such as production warehouses, shipping warehouses, transshipment warehouses, etc.—can be automated. Cost-effective implementation depends on several factors, such as storage capacity and inventory turnover.
