Profiles that vary in length, shape and material? No problem for fehr honeycomb. The system employs the changing-cassette principle and is ideal for the demands encountered in the window-manufacturing sector.

fehr honeycomb impresses with its absolute consistency and easy handling. No other storage system provides more capacity on a similarly small footprint.

___ fehr wmsAdministrating, controlling, managing. As a fully integrated warehouse-management software system, fehr wms hand-les all aspects of warehousing logistics and guarantees excellent IT support for all warehouse-management tasks.

But the system is not only able to handle processes within the storage facility itself, it is also able to record and store upstream and downstream processes. Capacities may be monitored and early responses to material changes may be triggered as a consequence of the processing equipment being controlled directly. This means that current activities at the storage facilities can always be tracked and punctual deliveries guaranteed to customers.

___ Kronenberger, which is headquartered in Emmen, is one of the leading Swiss manufacturers of high-quality plastic windows.

The honeycomb light system provides window manufactu-rers with direct access to fast-moving items without waiting times. The specially designed access stations also allow machine saws to be directly connected. The process of storing and removing items directly from forklifts is also possible with honeycomb light.

___ Sky-Frame AG is an international leading manufacturer of sliding-window systems with development and production facilities based in Frauenfeld in Switzerland.

The art of Swiss engineering also comes to bear in its warehousing system: fehr honeycomb has enabled Sky-Frame‘s store to be integrated into the entire production line – from goods receipt through coating to processing. All processes have been automated and precisely tailored to customer requirements – manual interventions by staff are no longer required.

fehr‘s honeycomb superlight material buffer store allows the maintenance of clear material overviews. The fully automa-ted saw link-up brings the timber scantlings directly from the cassette to the machine saw. The special design made it possible to realize several buffer areas without the need for an additional peripheral station.
