Intelligent Warehousing Project in the Chemical Industry: 5 Stacker Cranes + 3 Palletizing Robots Build a Safe and Efficient Material Management System

2026-05-12

Chemical production places stringent demands on material storage safety, rigorous batch traceability, and compliance with operational environment standards. During its intelligent transformation initiative, a chemical enterprise encountered challenges including high reliance on manual labor in raw material and finished goods packaging, inefficient warehouse space utilization, and difficulties in tracing inbound/outbound records. To enhance automation and management precision across its logistics operations, the company commissioned Zhejiang Jingxin Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. to design and implement an intelligent warehousing system specifically tailored for chemical industry applications.

 


Located in a designated storage area within the client’s plant, the solution was carefully engineered to accommodate the packaging formats, storage conditions, and safety protocols typical of chemical materials. The system configuration includes:

5 stacker cranes

9,632 standardized pallet positions

3 palletizing robotic workstations

A fully integrated conveyor network

A unified electrical control system with proprietary WMS/WCS software platform

The system covers the entire logistics flow—from end-of-line production output, through automated storage in the AS/RS (Automated Storage and Retrieval System), to outbound loading for shipment.

 


To handle common chemical packaging types such as FIBCs (ton bags), cartons, and drums, the system features automated palletizing stations at the inbound front end. The three palletizing robots dynamically adjust their stacking patterns based on incoming material type and pallet specifications, ensuring stable, neat, and consistent pallet builds—replacing manual handling and significantly reducing workplace safety risks. Completed pallets are then automatically conveyed into the high-bay warehouse, where stacker cranes store them in designated locations. All storage positions are logically zoned by material properties and batch information, enabling strict enforcement of the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) principle. During outbound operations, the system retrieves materials by specific batch upon request and delivers them via conveyors to the shipping dock, ensuring full traceability throughout the process.


Throughout implementation, all equipment was selected and rated to meet chemical-industry safety standards, including appropriate protection levels for hazardous environments. The control system features fault alarms, user access control, and detailed operation logging, facilitating daily maintenance and regulatory compliance audits. Since commissioning, the client has significantly reduced manual intervention while improving operational consistency and data accuracy, laying a solid foundation for precision inventory management.

 


This project demonstrates Jingxin Intelligent’s engineering expertise in integrating safety, regulatory compliance, and automation within specialized industrial sectors, as well as its proven capability in system integration for complex material handling scenarios.
