AGRI-FOOD / FOOD INDUSTRY

We offer several concepts for order preparations such as layer or box preparation that can combine robotic, manual, or mechanized stations.

Our solutions can handle a wide variety of products in terms of shape, weight, and packaging robustness. We adapt the gripping tools (clamping force, speed, etc.) to the load reference available at the workstation.

Our algorithms allow optimized preparation adapted to your rules and your products, particularly:

• quantities management
• scheduling packages on the pallet
• management of dates per customer
• management of contracts on date
• respect for the rules for non-mixing of products on the pallet
• pallets sequencing management

Our management and control software OPAL, integrates with the customer’s various identification devices and information systems and ensures optimal traceability of the loads and overall control of your internal logistics:

• Product management by batches
• use-by dates management (best-before dates…)
• Quarantine management
• Sampling for Quality Control
• Inventory management

As a French leader in the automated storage of pallets in frozen areas, Alstef Group provides its expertise to the service of its customers.

To improve the operators working conditions and according to regulations, Alstef Group has developed and implemented a concept of order preparations allowing:

• the storage of pallets in stacker crane area under negative cold (-25 to -30 ° C) conditions
• picking workstations in positive cold zone (0 to + 5°C)

We also have a perfect understanding of the requirements for transferring in storage all receipted pallets from the docks in order to guarantee the cold chain.
