Pallet Automation for Food Manufacturing Logistics - Yihai Kerry - BlueSword

Yihai Kerry operates large-scale food manufacturing and distribution sites where palletized materials move continuously between inbound, storage, and outbound operations. In this environment, intralogistics needs to stay predictable over long operating hours. To support stable daily throughput, the site implemented an automated pallet warehouse designed around controlled pallet flow and high-density storage rather than short-term peak speed.

The system centers on high-bay racking served by multiple stacker cranes, with inbound pallets checked, transferred, and stored through defined routes. Conveyors and straight-rail RGVs reduce floor congestion, while outbound flow follows fixed sequences supported by automatic pallet handling equipment. The focus remains reliability, layout efficiency, and repeatable operation in food logistics.

Key system figures
⚙️Over 10,000 pallet locations
⚙️Seven double-mast stacker cranes
⚙️Combined throughput of 300+ pallets per hour
⚙️Operation up to 23 hours per day
⚙️Automatic empty-pallet sorting and pallet push-out handling
