The commissioning with our SEOS® software for a new extension of the warehouse of Bell Schweiz AG in Oensingen was successfully completed. Thanks to the good cooperation with the experts of our customer Stöcklin Logistik AG, the entire commissioning of the warehouse with three devices including system tests was implemented in only two days.

The system is a small parts warehouse with an overall height of 21m. Normally, competitors equip such high devices with an anti-pendulum drive to prevent mast vibrations. Thanks to the innovative SEOS software solution, these additional drives are no longer needed. This enables faster commissioning, easier maintenance and of course significantly lower purchase costs and permanently lower maintenance costs.

In May 2019, we successfully commissioned an automatic reading system for stamps ReaSy® at our customer ArcelorMittal in Poland. We thank the technical team of ArcelorMittal for their confidence and good cooperation!

ReaSy (abbreviation for Reading System) recognizes and automatically identifies stamped symbols on hot and cold products, e.g. rails, wheels, billets, or similar. At our customer ArcelorMittal, the system was used to identify rails in front of a test facility. After passing through this test facility, each rail receives a test certificate, which is issued according to the stamp number of the rail. So far, an operator manually typed in the stamp number in the plant control system. On the one hand, this manual operation costs time and money, on the other hand it slows down the entire process and reduces the throughput of the system.

With ReaSy, the stamp number can now be read fully automatically. In contrast to manual reading, the rail does not even have to be stopped – ReaSy 4.0 is able to read the characters at a rail speed of up to 4.0 m/s. In addition, the reading result is available in less than 0.5 seconds. This tremendous improvement eliminates any labor, cuts time and costs, while increasing throughput and therefore overall plant productivity.

This improvement is made possible with newest software methods. With these we achieved a reading accuracy of 99.4% (!) at our customer. This very high accuracy is unique in the industry so far. Read more under the following link: https://www.b-berger.de/products/reading-system/

Further commissioning with our software SEOS® at Tönnies Lebensmittel GmbH & Co. KG was successfully completed. The installation was again under demanding conditions during operation. Thanks to the excellent cooperation with Tönnies’ technical and maintenance department as well as SIVAplan’s competent RBG specialists, the installation was completed smoothly and in record time despite the challenging conditions.

The stacker cranes in the fresh warehouse are in continuous use for 6.5 days a week under the toughest conditions. In order to increase the performance of the fresh warehouse and to generate throughput reserves for necessary maintenance measures, the software SEOS was used in a retrofit project. Already last year, the first storage and retrieval machines of the fresh warehouse were equipped with SEOS during operation. After the company Tönnies had intensively evaluated the performance figures with SEOS, they were so satisfied with the use of our award-winning software that they wanted to equip all remaining stacker cranes with SEOS. We are proud that this extensive performance test was rewarded with a follow-up order, and we thank Tönnies for their trust.

Numerous national and international visitors came to our booth again this year at the world trade fair for intralogistics in Stuttgart. Not only existing customers wanted to find out about the latest developments of our software SEOS®. Also many new prospective customers were with us this year at the stand, who had already dealt with the topic in part astonishingly well in advance. We say thank you for the exciting discussions!

Many satisfied customers, interested persons and also representatives of the trade press were back at our booth at the LogiMAT this year to inform themselves about the most high-performance control system for storage and retrieval machines. A new article in the exhibition newspaper also caused a sensation. It sheds light on how our software SEOS® fits in with the latest trends in high-bay warehouses. It is shown how stacker cranes can be built higher and lighter and still a high storage throughput can be realized. At the same time, SEOS helps to reduce costs and commissioning times. All topics are examined using practical examples.

Between ŽĎAS, a.s. and BERGER Engineering has jointly signed a contract to supply WheSt and ReaSy to BONATRANS (Czech Republic).

BERGER Engineering supplies the first fully automatic stamping machine for stamping of characters in railway wheels.

All characters (13 characters) are freely selectable and changeable.

ReaSy is used to read and identify!

We are looking forward to a good cooperation!

The SEOS® technology reduces vibrations of stacker cranes. This increases on the one hand the warehouse throughput in high-bay warehouses. On the other hand, the mechanical stress is reduced and also the use of higher, lighter and cheaper stacker cranes without anti-pendulum drives is made possible.

At the LogiMAT 2019, we present you the latest developments and reference projects of the “Best Product” of the fair.

Visit us from the 19th to the 21st of February 2019 at the LogiMAT 2019 in hall 3, booth C27. We look forward to you.

On December 12, 2018, our managing director, Mrs. Edith Berger, signed the contract with ArcelorMittal Poland S.A. for the delivery and installation of ReaSy 4.0.

ReaSy is the first automatic reading system that can read and identify characters even from hot rails up to 1150 ° C.

The AI ​​allows ReaSy to increase the quality, which at the beginning of the installation is 97%, to almost 100% over time.

It will be measured according to the standard of the IOS and there is ReaSy on first place.

The commissioning with our SEOS® software for the warehouse of Leister Technologies AG in Sarnen, Switzerland, was successfully completed. Thanks to the good cooperation with the experts of our customer Stöcklin Logistik AG, the commissioning including plant tests could be implemented in only two days.

The system is a small parts warehouse with a height of 18m. Usually, anti-pendulum drives are used for these large heights in order to enable vibration-free positioning. With our SEOS software, even with such large heights, no additional drives are required on the mast head. This can significantly reduce costs.

The very well-known magazine for logistics and storage technology „Hebezeuge Fördermittel“ again wrote an article on the SEOS® technology in its current issue 4/2018. The focus of the article is on current projects in practice, where the advantages of SEOS over other systems become clear. We thank the editors of Hebezeuge Fördermittel, and in particular the publisher Norbert Hamke, for the good cooperation.
