Software as the Key to Efficient Palletizing in Grocery Retail
15.07.2025
Requirements in grocery retail are rising: growing product variety, faster delivery times, and maximum availability are expected. To master this complexity, smart automation is essential – with software as the central element.
WERX: The Intelligent Backbone of Modern Grocery Logistics
TGW Logistics relies on its proprietary platform WERX, a modular software solution that controls, visualizes, and optimizes all material flows. A key focus lies on intelligent palletizing: AI-powered algorithms ensure maximum packing density, optimal load stability, and high efficiency. This significantly reduces manual intervention – and boosts overall performance.
High-End Automation, End to End
TGW Logistic’s full case portfolio covers all temperature zones – from ambient to chilled and deep-freeze (-30 °C).
High-performance components such as …
- High-speed palletizers (>700 units/hour),
- Depalletizing systems with AI-powered object recognition,
- Shuttle warehouses with multi-SKU trays,
- Sequencing directly from storage or via external systems
… enable seamless, automated processes that are efficient, scalable, and reliable.
Split Case & Full Case: Two Worlds in One System
As e-commerce continues to grow, so do the demands on split case picking. We combine both full case and split case in integrated systems – including:
- High-speed shuttle technology,
- The patented PickCenter One for 1:1 order picking,
- And the Target Sequencer for optimal item order.
This allows fast and slow movers to be picked flexibly – whether for store delivery or direct-to-consumer fulfillment.
