Buffering & Sequencing Solutions

Warehouse and production operations use buffer systems when their processes include a wait or hold step, their material handling process requires reserve inventory to manage fluctuating demands, or when they require a quick and accurate order consolidation before packing or shipping. Kardex offers scalable and flexible solutions that reduce operator search time, save floor space, and ensure that goods are always available at the right time. 

Warehouse operations and production lines each have unique challenges, from managing fluctuating demand to improving material flow. Kardex offers customized buffering and sequencing solutions that adapt to your specific needs and provide unmatched flexibility, scalability, and efficiency. Kardex solutions can create a fully or partially automated order consolidation process that helps you to save floor space, speed up processes, and increase accurate, on-time deliveries.
