-25°C Frozen Food Cold Storage Project: Pallet Shuttle ASRS Case Study

Customer Background

The customer is a leading enterprise in live sheep slaughtering and agricultural food processing, with annual mutton processing capacity of over 5,000 tons. As production expanded, the company needed a more efficient freezer warehouse to support safe storage, lower labor dependence, and stronger inventory control.

Project Requirements

The project focused on four key goals:

• Maximize warehouse space utilization
• Ensure safe storage in a -25°C environment
• Reduce manual intervention and operating risk
• Improve inventory visibility and full-process traceability

Solution

After on-site evaluation, DELIECN designed a customized cold storage Pallet Shuttle Asrs solution. The system included:

Results

The project achieved several clear improvements:

• 3x higher space utilization
• 60% higher upper-and-lower-level transfer efficiency
• Reduced labor exposure in freezer areas
• Better traceability through WMS/WCS integration
• Reliable operation in a -25°C environment

Why This Project Matters

This project shows how cold storage automation can solve multiple problems at the same time. It improved space utilization, reduced low-temperature labor pressure, and strengthened traceability in one integrated system.

For frozen food operations, that is often more valuable than simply adding storage capacity.
