Molinos Tres Arroyos, a producer of dry durum wheat pasta, will install the Automated Pallet Shuttle system and Easy WMS software in its manufacturing plant. Located in Tres Arroyos (Buenos Aires, Argentina), the facility outputs over 560 tons of pasta daily.
“The new automated storage and retrieval system will help us optimize our logistics processes. It will run at full throughput 24/7 in freezing temperatures,” says Federico Vis, Head of Production at Molinos Tres Arroyos.
With a 6,000-pallet capacity, the Automated Pallet Shuttle system will boost Molinos Tres Arroyos’ productivity. The AS/RS is one of the most efficient high-density storage solutions on the market. In addition to increasing the number of cycles per hour, it will leverage all available space to maximize storage capacity.
“Our supply chain is equipped with state-of-the-art technology that ensures the highest production quality, and Mecalux’s Automated Pallet Shuttle epitomizes this,” says Vis. This compact storage solution — coupled with the Easy WMS warehouse management system — is ideal for responding to the main challenges of food logistics. These include traceability of perishable products, uninterrupted flow of goods, and optimization of costs related to temperature control.
Logistics efficiency is key for Molinos Tres Arroyos to distribute products to clients across Argentina and other countries in the Americas, such as the US, Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile, Peru, and Colombia.
