In today’s fast-moving world of logistics and e-commerce, every second counts. When distribution centers slow down, entire supply chains feel the impact — from delayed deliveries to rising costs. That’s why leading global brands are turning to HEGERLS, a pioneer in smart warehousing, to achieve 99% operational availability and ensure that their operations never stop moving.
With almost 30 years of experience in automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), HEGERLS combines engineering excellence, intelligent software, and predictive maintenance to help warehouses stay online — efficiently, safely, and sustainably.
Why 99% Uptime Is the New Benchmark for Modern Warehouses
Traditional manual warehouses often struggle with unplanned downtime, inconsistent throughput, and human errors. In contrast, automated distribution centers powered by HEGERLS integrated systems — including four-way shuttle technology, stacker cranes, and smart WMS/WCS software — are achieving near-perfect reliability.
This benchmark of 99% operational availability translates into:
l Faster order fulfillment and fewer bottlenecks
l Real-time visibility across all warehouse assets
l Lower total cost of ownership (TCO) through predictive maintenance
l Seamless scalability as order volumes grow
For industries like e-commerce, pharmaceuticals, cold storage, and manufacturing, this reliability is not optional — it’s essential.
Reliability by Design: Engineering That Never Sleeps
Every HEGERLS system starts with robust engineering. From the structural steel used in rack-supported warehouses to the motion precision of four-way shuttles, durability and uptime are embedded into the design.
The HEGERLS Four-Way Shuttle System allows shuttles to move in all directions — forward, backward, left, and right — providing unmatched flexibility in dense storage environments. If one path is blocked, the shuttle intelligently reroutes, ensuring continuous flow.
For high-bay applications, the HEGERLS Stacker Crane System provides rapid, high-precision pallet handling with automatic load balancing and dual-mast redundancy, reducing the risk of downtime due to mechanical failures.
Smarter Control with HEGERLS WMS Software: CC-WMS and YUNTU-WCS
CC-WMS
YUNTU-WCS
What truly powers uptime is intelligence. HEGERLS proprietary CC-WMS (Warehouse Management System) and YUNTU-WCS (Warehouse Control System) synchronize every process, from inbound receiving to outbound dispatch.
l CC-WMS optimizes inventory, orders, and replenishment, ensuring stock accuracy above 99.9%.
l YUNTU-WCS monitors every shuttle, lift, and conveyor in real time, dynamically adjusting workflows to prevent congestion or idle time.
Together, they turn static storage into a self-learning warehouse ecosystem — where machines make real-time decisions that boost efficiency and uptime.
Predictive Maintenance: Prevent Problems Before They Happen
HEGERLS integrates IoT sensors and AI diagnostics across its automation systems to detect anomalies before they disrupt operations. Motors, drives, and sensors continuously send performance data to the central control platform, where predictive algorithms flag early warning signs.
The result:
l 40% fewer breakdowns
l Shorter maintenance windows
l Longer equipment lifespan
Through remote monitoring dashboards, HEGERLS technicians can analyze and resolve issues instantly — often before the client even notices a slowdown.
Cold Storage Performance at -40°C
Cold chain logistics faces unique challenges: extreme temperatures, moisture, and power efficiency. The HEGERLS Cold Storage Shuttle System is built to perform reliably in freezers down to -40°C, using low-temperature batteries, corrosion-resistant materials, and sealed control circuits.
Major food and pharmaceutical clients rely on HEGERLS’ Four-Way Shuttle and Stacker Crane Systems to ensure uninterrupted automation in frozen environments where uptime is mission-critical.
Modular, Scalable, and Always On
Every HEGERLS system is modular — designed for growth without disruption. New aisles, shuttles, or racks can be added while operations continue. Maintenance is simplified with plug-and-play component modules, allowing technicians to replace key parts in minutes.
This approach ensures that distribution centers can expand capacity or upgrade automation without downtime — an essential advantage in high-growth industries.
Proven Projects Across Multiple Industries
HEGERLS success stories span across industries, showcasing our versatility and engineering expertise.
Cold Storage Excellence (Indonesia & India)
For clients in frozen food and pharmaceutical logistics, HEGERLS designed ultra-low-temperature systems operating at -22°C. Our Four-Way Shuttle Systems ensure smooth pallet movement, while intelligent scheduling algorithms maximize efficiency even in extreme environments.
Automotive Component Warehouses (China & Russia)
Partnering with leading automotive and agricultural machinery manufacturers, HEGERLS implemented Stacker Crane Systems and Heavy-Duty Racking for spare parts and raw materials storage. These facilities achieved faster retrieval rates and improved inventory traceability, reducing downtime in production lines.
E-Commerce Fulfillment Centers (Southeast Asia)
In high-volume e-commerce operations, HEGERLS deployed Multi-Layer Shuttle and Pick-to-Light Systems, increasing order accuracy and fulfillment speed by over 35%. Integration with YUNTU-WCS allows real-time tracking and intelligent task allocation.
Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Logistics
Our AS/RS and Mobile Racking Solutions provide temperature-controlled storage for sensitive materials. With HEGERLS’ precision engineering, clients maintain strict quality compliance and achieve high-density storage in limited space.
These cases demonstrate our commitment to customized, scalable, and reliable warehousing innovation.
Sustainability and Smart Energy Recovery
In addition to performance, HEGERLS systems are engineered for energy efficiency. Regenerative braking, smart lighting control, and AI-powered scheduling collectively reduce power consumption — supporting both environmental goals and cost savings.
As global supply chains focus on green logistics, HEGERLS enables customers to achieve sustainability without sacrificing operational excellence.
From Downtime to Data-Driven Efficiency
For HEGERLS, automation is more than machines — it’s about intelligence, foresight, and adaptability.
By merging smart data analytics, robotic flexibility, and reliable engineering, HEGERLS empowers global distribution centers to achieve true operational resilience.
In a market where even seconds matter, 99% uptime isn’t a dream — it’s the HEGERLS standard.
Always-On Support, Anywhere
To maintain 99% uptime, HEGERLS provides 24/7 technical support through both remote service centers and local on-site teams.
Remote diagnostics resolve most control issues within minutes, while regional support hubs guarantee rapid field response when needed.
It’s not just a system — it’s a partnership built on performance and trust.
