Pet food made in Germany!

bosch Tiernahrung, one of the leading European producers of pet food, is experiencing a continuously growing demand for their high quality products. The latest manufacturing and packing lines combined with comprehensive quality management result in the best quality possible and that is exactly what the market yearns for.

bosch‘s principle of a transparent production leaves no room for compromise. It starts with strict quality controls for suppliers of raw materials and ends with the perfect traceability of each batch – this is where the warehouse management system dilos is applied. Hand in hand with Microsoft Dynamcis Nav, dilos grants smooth processes in distribution and strictly monitored internal processes. Due to the sustained growth, warehouse logistics in Blaufelden had to be expanded: In the newly built high bay warehouse with electric monorail System both storage from the production halls and commissioning is fully automatic-controlled. The storage in the also newly built commission hall is done via unmanned conveying system.

After they have been weighed, Subsets and mixing pallets are labeled, commissioned with the help of the forklift guidance system terminal and provided to the dispatch area under the principle of route grouping. The new infrastructure and storage technology were integrated quickly and smoothly in existing processes – the warehouse management system dilos has been the main system steering the other partners involved.
