Advanced automation in the handling of variable liquid loads
In collaboration with a leading system integrator, Eurofork contributed to the development of an automated system for a company operating in the petrochemical sector. The project involved the creation of an innovative solution for handling load units containing liquids, featuring variable telescopic forks spacing and a system designed to manage different pallet configurations, ensuring high operational efficiency and reduced cycle times.

Requirement
The project concerns a warehouse with an automated area of 4,150m² (44,670sq ft) and a capacity of 28,630 pallet locations. In this context, the client required a system capable of handling pallets with 4 or 8 drums up to 1,100kg (2425lb), characterized by different configurations, while ensuring stability and precision during handling.
The solution had to adapt to varying geometries and centers of gravity, optimize cycle times through fork adjustment, integrate within limited spaces and be plug-and-play, without requiring modifications to the existing system.
