Known for its pallet racking and
storage solutions, Dexion has added
a Warehouse Intelligence System
called C-WIS to its portfolio.

Launched at the recent IMHX
show, the C-WIS is a control system
that enables the user to continuously
optimise warehouse functionality.

Dexion believes any company with a
WMS or ERP system would benefit
from C-WIS as it says the initial
creation of a warehouse operation
may not always be the optimal setup.

Operating as a cockpit, which
collects and processes information
from a user’s system, C-WIS recreates
a 3D simulation of the entire material
and work flow for the warehouse
based on real data. This lets the
company optimise stock locations,
investigate staffing and service levels,
working methods, forklift truck type
and use, and picking routines.

Potential changes can be simulated
prior to implementation to assess
their effectiveness.
