Automated Packing & Shipping Case Study

Warehouse Solutions for Packing & Shipping

Whether you’re looking to streamline order readiness, ensure accurate packaging, or eliminate shipping bottlenecks, Kardex provides scalable solutions that fit your specific needs.

Order Readiness Notification

Kardex software solutions can notify packers the moment that all items for an order or kit are ready. This eliminates delays and increases packing efficiency. Real-time communication between systems ensures complete orders are released to operators as soon as they're ready with no manual checks or validations required.

Sequenced Item Delivery

Having trouble with packing errors and workflow during high-demand times? With Kardex solutions, your items are delivered in the exact sequence required, whether for individual orders or production kits. Heavy items arrive first to reduce damage and improve safety, while pre-sorted order logic ensures minimal dock dwell time and faster outbound flow. Easily integrate automated storage technology with your inventory management software to ensure timely and accurate order fulfillment.

Real-Time Inventory Tracking

Our automated solutions ensure every item is tracked and scanned, providing up-to-date inventory visibility. Integrated software ensures transparent inventory management and reduces the risk of packing or shipping errors. This provides real-time control over inventory levels.

Consolidated Order Shipping

Our solutions can act as an automated consolidation buffer to ensure that all components of a shipment are packed and shipped together. This optimization reduces shipping errors and ensures that products arrive in great condition. Your team can manage both partial and completed orders; so it’s never been easier to save space, improve delivery times, and complete orders – fast.

Smart Cartonization

Packing is optimized through intelligent cartonization, powered by Paccurate, seamlessly integrated with AutoStore and FulfillX. The system selects the ideal outbound carton based on item dimensions, crushability, and carrier rate cards, then determines the most efficient way to pack each order. This reduces freight costs by 6–8% and cuts corrugated and void fill usage by up to 30%, enabling smarter, more sustainable shipping at scale.
