Seabourne Logistics extends South African footprint

Posted on by Keith McKinley

From the automotive industry to the agricultural community, new road freight and fast delivery options are now available thanks to Seabourne Logistics, which opened a branch in Mbombela, formerly known as Nelspruit, in Mpumalanga.

The Nelspruit branch was officially launched in February 2022. It is anticipated to move to new flagship premises soon that will include warehousing space, according to Seabourne Logistics Director Garry Harris (pictured). Harris is a former Nelspruit resident who lived in the community for 19 years and attended Lowveld High School: “It is so great to be able to open a Seabourne Logistics office in my hometown, and I look forward to connecting with old friends again.”

He adds: “We are really extending our reach and scope in the region with some unique value-added services. A lot of companies offer air freight, which has become much more costly due to the recent surge in fuel prices. Our road-freight option is a unique differentiator for us.”

Services include overnight and economy, courier, and next-day delivery options. A delivery service is also available from Johannesburg to Komatipoort before 12:00. In addition, there is a 48-hour delivery service from Komatipoort to Cape Town, George, East London, Port Elizabeth and vice versa via the road network.

“What continues to give us the leading edge is that we establish long-term relationships with our clients, which allows us to become trusted advisors and business partners. This is largely due to our business values, which include trust, reliability, and flexibility, all based on ensuring a personal service to cater for all client needs,” says Harris.

Zenda Stoffberg, newly appointed Branch Manager, had the following to say: “I feel privileged to have been afforded this opportunity, as there is something different about Seabourne Logistics. It strives for excellence, is very professional, and goes the extra mile for its clients. They are kind and friendly and welcomed me with open arms, and I do indeed feel part of the family. The work ethic is incredible. Seabourne Logistics is well organised, technology-driven, and has excellent communications. It is certainly the best CSD department I have ever worked with.”

Husband-and-wife team Garry and Ezelle Harris set up the business in 2002. After establishing a significant footprint in the automotive industry and other niche sectors such as wine and pharmaceuticals, they sold a 70% stake in the business to the Seabourne Group in 2009. Seabourne Logistics will expand on the group’s global platform and further extend the synergies between the different in-country businesses.

Seabourne Logistics operates globally in South Africa, France, the UK, and The Netherlands. Its logistics and supply chain solutions include warehousing, distribution, courier, clearing and forwarding and air, sea, and rail freight, in addition to specialised solutions for specific requirements.

Domestic services offered by Seabourne Logistics are Early Bird, Overnight Express, Overnight Road, Budget Air Freight, Economy Road, Same Day, Specialised Loads, and National Distribution.

Game-changing intralogistics technologies at IMHX 2022

Posted on by David Priestman

Sales of autonomous mobile robots and driverless lift trucks are taking off but the game-changing intralogistics technologies we will see at IMHX 2022 go much further than the simple replacement of man by machine, says event director, Rob Fisher.

Across the intralogistics sector sales of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are booming. Indeed, in a recent report Interact Analysis forecast that more than 1.1 million robots will be deployed in warehouses around the world before the end of 2024. And almost a fifth of respondents quizzed earlier this year for the IMHX Optimism Index expected to be using AMRs to some extent within the next 12 months – a remarkably high figure for a technology that was seen as futuristic just a few years ago.

In simple terms, AMR technology differs from the science behind long-established Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) in that the units do not rely on human interaction to change route. Instead, on-board navigation systems guide them between destinations.

These robots are proving a particularly effective alternative to the type of conveyor-based sortation systems that have historically been used at parcel hubs and order fulfilment centres. Their attraction is partly based on the fact that they require a significantly smaller floor area within which to operate than a conveyor to achieve the same parcel throughput statistics – at a time when every square foot of available floorspace has to be optimised, this particular benefit is clearly a significant plus point.

Modular AMR-based sortation systems are also scalable, so additional robots can be introduced as and when they are needed to cope with any spikes in throughput and, what’s more, if an individual robot malfunctions, it is simply and quickly removed from the ‘shop floor’ and replaced with no discernible drop in throughput capacity.

The technology is also fully portable, which allows systems to be switched between sites if required.

Until now, China and the USA have been the top two investors in AMR sortation systems but, as autonomous mobile robot technology’s reputation for bringing flexibility and scalability to some of the busiest parcel sorting hubs in the world spreads, Europe’s logistics community is increasingly conscious of the benefits that this innovative, low CapEx approach brings.

Of course, other forms of robotic and automated intralogistics technology are taking off too. For example, with a substantial decline in the availability of forklift drivers recognised as a major problem, a growing number of warehouse and distribution centre operators see driverless forklift truck technology as the solution to the recruitment and employment cost challenges they face.

Driverless forklifts undertake every type of task that would be expected of a manually-operated forklift – including vehicle loading and unloading, pallet put-away and retrieval in both standard and very narrow aisle racking configurations, as well as pallet and stillage movements throughout the warehouse.

In addition to the obvious savings in labour costs that driverless forklifts bring, other benefits include: reduced damage to goods, racking and trucks; greater picking accuracy; and more efficient use of the available storage space.

DHL and Walmart are among the high profile businesses to have already adopted driverless lift trucks, while countless small and medium sized forklift users are also benefiting from the advantages that the technology delivers.

But the developments and technologies we will see at IMHX 2022 will go much further than the simple replacement of man by machine.

Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, ‘big data’ and the Internet of Things are beginning to be adopted in a significant way right across the logistics field to allow warehouses or distribution centres to become self-learning, self-correcting, self-optimising operations capable of adapting to change in real time.

And as technology continues to play an ever-more crucial role in shaping the future of supply chains, IMHX 2022 will provide a fascinating opportunity to discover artificial intelligence, robotics, and automated handling systems by bringing together world-class suppliers of intralogistics and supply chain solutions across three days of interactive demonstrations, exciting new product announcements and immersive experiences.

In addition to the full exhibition floor, which includes names such as Whittan Group, Knapp, Combilift, Geekplus, Cesab, Zebra Technologies and Swisslog, IMHX 2022 will also host a multi-track series of educational seminars, talks and workshops. Covering key industry themes and trends, the line-up of influencers, innovators and pioneers among the conference speakers will reflect the growing role of artificial intelligence, automation and robotics within the modern supply chain.

The seminars are free to attend and alongside the innovations on show within the main exhibition halls they make a day at IMHX 2022 an outstanding opportunity for logistics industry professionals to stay ahead of the shifting landscape of supply chain processes.

IMHX 2022 takes place from 6 – 8 September at the NEC, Birmingham. To find out more and activate your free pass, visit www.imhx.net.

Dematic offers inspection by drone

Posted on by David Priestman

Dematic now offers an innovative service for the entire inspection of intralogistics systems. Customers can conduct regular security checks and visual inspections with the help of drones. With Dematic Drone Inspection Services, monitoring and checking large automation systems, including automated storage and retrieval machines as well as equipment, stored goods and buildings, will be quicker and safer, reducing the need for service technicians operating complex safety equipment at high altitudes, all without loss of quality.

“Safety in the workplace always has the highest priority,” says René Sickler, Senior Director Value Added Services Dematic EMEA. “It’s why every safety-relevant system and component must be regularly inspected and checked for any flaws. With our Dematic Drone Inspection Services solution, facilities will be shut down for shorter, planned periods of time and started up again more quickly in a very safe environment for service employees.”

To efficiently implement this innovative approach across brands, the Central Technology & Innovation group at parent company KION GROUP AG handled the project management. Notes Sickler: “By combining our capabilities with KION, we quickly conquered the technical, organisational and regulatory challenges and created a new type of service which provides customers with real added value.” Dematic’s drone inspection services have been approved by the German Federal Aviation Office and the solution is currently available in Central Europe. Future plans call for rolling out the services internationally.

Avoiding long service downtimes

Currently, service technicians have performed visual inspections primarily using extensive amounts of safety equipment at significant heights. It requires complex precautions – sometimes even scaffolding – and can result in long downtimes as well as high costs. However, Dematic Drone Inspection Services can greatly reduce both of these issues.

The time required for a Dematic drone inspection is about 30 percent of the time needed to complete a manual inspection. The risk of an accident has largely been eliminated. Other service areas where drones are useful include interim inspections, monitoring congestion situations, facility management and analysis of emergencies such as accidents.

Equipped with high-resolution cameras and LED lights, the drones are controlled by trained, licensed Dematic service employees. The images and videos captured during the flight can be analysed both in real time and at a later date. Thanks to the quiet flight behaviour and the high image resolution, even the smallest details, such as test stickers on a column head, can be recorded and analysed. Another advantage for particularly difficult cases, offsite specialists can perform an evaluation remotely. Images can be used to create long-term documentation over a system’s entire service life.

The images are processed following strict adherence to data and privacy protection laws and regulations by blurring or eliminating respective objects within the photos. Access to data storage is also restricted and only possible with clear non-disclosure agreements in place.

“The use of Dematic Drone Inspection Services gives customers a tangible competitive advantage,” explains Sickler. Dematic is currently planning a global market launch for the innovative service technology and is exploring additional applications. In the future, the Dematic solution might conduct evaluations and record image and video material based on decisions informed by artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Yale showcases ‘Technology that moves’

Posted on by David Priestman

Yale Europe Materials Handling made what it describes as a triumphant return to LogiMAT under the theme of ‘Technology that moves’. At the event, which was held at the Stuttgart Messe on 31 May – 2 June, visitors witnessed first-hand a variety of game-changing materials handling solutions on the Yale stand.

Yale, which has undergone a business transformation, brought its refreshed and recharged solutions to the international intralogistics event. Experts were on hand to explain how its technology is moving with the times and offering customers new materials handling solutions that meet changing industry demands. The latest Yale products combine technology and design to provide a customised solution to each and every customer.

“It was a real pleasure to be back at LogiMAT this year and have the opportunity to reunite with customers, dealers, partners and new visitors under one roof,” said Timo Antony, Area Business Director Central Europe at Yale. “There was a great atmosphere at the event, especially as Yale has undergone a hugely exciting business transformation including a new website and sales process designed to address customer needs with a focus on industries and solutions. We showcased our latest solution, the new Series N, which will offer a whole new way of configuring materials handling solutions and help keep businesses moving, even under constantly changing circumstances.”

Visitors at LogiMAT got to see the newest fleet on the block, the Yale Series N, in its very first public outing following its launch in May. The new product offers customers an easily configurable truck to match their unique requirements, raising the bar for success while offering operator comfort, safety and efficiency.

Yale’s lithium-ion battery partner, Sunlight Group, was also on hand at LogiMAT to meet visitors and showcase a warehouse reach truck powered by one of its lithium-ion solutions. The MR16 Reach Truck can lift up to 10.7 metres and has a maximum load capacity of 1,600kg. The robust mast design provides high residual capacities and stable load handling, which can enable faster put away and retrieval times. The reach truck has a spacious operator compartment and can manoeuvre in tight spaces, making it ideal for warehousing applications that need to maximise on storage space.

Yale recently strengthened its relationship with the Sunlight Group, having previously used its lead-acid batteries as an option for its product range. Yale now also offers the company’s lithium-ion batteries.

“It was a real joy to be joined by our new lithium-ion battery partner, Sunlight Group, at LogiMAT,” said Antony. “It’s one of the world’s top manufacturers of energy storage solutions, and we’ve long utilised their battery solutions in our products. We’ve expanded our partnership and we look forward to continue working with them to provide our customers with the very best power solutions to keep them moving.
