AWA’s automated reel handling system – 21st century material flow
While being up to date cable technology company, Nestor Cables modernizes production processes in Oulu, Finland by investing in AWA’s reel handling system.
Customer value is multidimensional
• Handling manually the flow of even 40-70 cable reels in an hour – weighing about 100 kg each – causes a mess in inventory management
• The system enables continuous production on copper cable line
• Seamless integration to production – connected material and information flow between production stages
• Efficient operating – production in order, no mistakes, less operating costs
• Concentrating on better quality of products – no possibilities to mix wrong raw materials to cable production
• Better capacity utilization and space usage rate
AWA’s solution comprises racking for cable reels storing and all the necessary positions for automated production processes. The heart of the system is AWA ARMI reel handling unit, which can handle up to 60 movements per hour depending on the storage layout. The system is controlled and inventory managed by AWA’s manufacturing control system for cable reel handling.
