TME relies on advanced warehouse automation to support its international logistics operations. This plays a key role in TME’s logistics operations, enabling the company to process and dispatch over 7,000 packages daily. TME’s logistics infrastructure includes the 19,500 m² facility in ?ód? and the 21,000 m² Rzgów Logistics Centre, where automated storage, picking, sorting and packing technologies support its daily operations. A third facility in Poland is planned for 2027, and a US warehouse will begin supplying customers in North America towards the end of Q1 2027.
Some numbers are illuminating:
- Automation level: approx. 60%.
- Automated storage in Rzgów: 86 autonomous picking robots, 260,000 locations, 5,000 totes/hour total throughput, 12 m high.
- Automated storage in ?ód?: five pallet cranes (12,000 pallets, 160 pallets/hour) and six container stacker cranes (220,000 locations). Both systems are 22 m high.
- Robotic arms: six automated sorter induction stations (500 operations/hour/each), with two more planned for 2027.
- Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs): 3 robots equipped with robotic arms that pick and place products into shipping boxes.
- Product picking station: An automated station for picking products, currently being commissioned.
- Sorter: Capable of processing up to 115,000 order lines per day, with 279 automated and 59 manual sorting slots.
- Conveyors: 7.5 km in total (3.5 km in ?ód?, 4 km in Rzgów).
A robotic dispensing system is currently being commissioned.
Avanock, a subsidiary of TME, specialises in advanced warehouse automation and intralogistics solutions. The company develops its own robotic systems and customised equipment, while also integrating technologies from established partners such as Hai Robotics and Kardex.
This combination results in solutions tailored to the specific requirements of TME’s logistics operations. An important advantage of this cooperation is that solutions can be developed and refined in a real operational environment, based on TME’s specific challenges and requirements.
