Automated Material Flow System for E-comm Center

A fully automated and remotely monitored material flow system is part of a modern, 6,000-square-meter distribution center of Cookplus in Hadimköy near Istanbul, Turkey.

The advanced Interroll conveyor system at Cookplus is entirely managed by software developed by Teknokom.

Interroll teamed up with systems integrator Teknokom on the design and installation of the sophisticated system. Essential elements of the new material handling solution are the RollerDrive EC 5000, MultiControl, and the Modular Conveyor Platform (MCP) from Interroll. The system combines advanced features such as travel control, automatic invoice printing, dynamic volume measurement, cargo label applications, and real-time monitoring.

Cookplus is the e-commerce brand of Karaca Group, a leader in the tableware, kitchen, and home textile market, operating with 2,700 dealers and shops in 27 countries. The zero-pressure-accumulation conveyors used for this material flow solution have a length of more than 220 meters interconnecting a variety of picking stations with the packaging and shipping areas on two floors of the facility. The efficient and extremely energy-saving conveying of totes and parcels uses about 190 RollerDrive EC 5000 units being controlled by 60 Interroll MultiControls cards connected to a programmable logic controller (PLC) and a warehouse management system.

“With our new solution we dramatically increased the performance and capacity of our distribution and fulfilment center by avoiding a variety of complex manual internal processes. Just as important to us as increasing our efficiency was further improving customer satisfaction through very fast and reliable deliveries,” says Ertugrul Celebi, Chief Operating Officer, Logistics & Supply Chain, at Karaca A.S.Automated labeling is part of the new material flow system at Cookplus.Automated labeling is part of the new material flow system at Cookplus.
