AMAG, Switzerland: Motor vehicle parts warehouse automation
AMAG Automobil- und Motoren AG is Switzerland’s leading car importer and dealer operating repair centers across the country for major brands including Volkswagen and Audi. To adapt quickly to customers’ increased demands and recognizing the need to have parts available within six hours of order placement, AMAG used Swisslog as general contractor to establish Switzerland’s largest automotive spare parts warehouse. Swisslog handled the planning of this warehouse logistics automation project which was implemented in several phases.
