The Störtebeker Braumanufaktur shows pioneering spirit – regarding new types of beer and an extremely stringent marketing concept just also when it comes to expanding its production capacities. In its filling and packaging operations and Information technology and intralogistics, the brewery has now opted completely for Krones' engineering, thus coping successfully with fifty-fifty highly complex production sequences.

Krones' telescopic of supply included a new energy-efficient bottling line rated at 40,000 returnable drinking glass bottles an hr and a high-bay warehouse with just under thirty,000 pallet slots from Arrangement Logistics full-coverage networking of the product performance with solutions from Syskron and Triacos. The existing bottling line, the new one, a kegging line, and the loftier-bay warehouse, plus the empties sorting organisation and goods acceleration zone, are all interconnected via a floor track system.

Highly circuitous Varioline

The principal job here was to streamline the complex piece of work sequences involved, thus upgrading the production operation's efficiency. "As I always say, here on our premises, we've got ten breweries in one because each of our beers is packed in its sort-specific crate," is how Jürgen Nordmann, the owner of the Störtebeker Braumanufaktur, describes the situation. Störtebeker's beers are offered in the brewery's own uniquely distinctive crates and as well in closed half-dozen-packs. This is why the brewery opted for the Varioline packaging arrangement that can handle not only crates and closed baskets but another xvi different packaging variants as well.

Störtebeker's Varioline organization is the most modern version currently up and running – since it is the first to characteristic the new TIA control organisation from Siemens, enabling a maximum degree of automation to be accomplished. Another beneficial side event is this – the layout installed at Störtebeker takes upwards just most half the space that a traditional packaging kit with the same output would need.

Holistically conceived logistics and IT concept

System Logistics delivered the fully automatic high-bay warehouse and the associated warehouse control organization. The warehouse with its eight aisles provides but under xxx,000 slots served by six storage and retrieval units. The floor track arrangement supplies the warehouse with empties, like bottles and crates, and ready-for-auction packages.

Furthermore, Störtebeker decided to have Syskron's subsidiary Triacos alter its existing SAP system to suit the new production landscape and link it to diverse It solutions from Syskron's SitePilot Suite. These IT solutions include Syskron's Line Management, Line Diagnostics, and Manufacturing Intelligence. Thus, the brewery has succeeded in harmonizing purchase orders, business processes, and production planning with each other to optimum effect. Thanks to Edge Device, moreover, Störtebeker has integrated its existing Krones glass line into the overall concept.

"When we ended the contract with Krones in 2017, it was important to us that Krones would exist supplying not only the bottling line but also the intralogistics with the high-bay warehouse, and that the customizing piece of work needed for the SAP organisation, plus the SitePilot automation solutions, were all elective parts of the order," is how Jürgen Nordmann sums upwardly their requirements. "We had already turned our attention to the subject of Industry four.0 at quite an early on stage and went looking for some suitable partners. With this investment, we take taken another crucial step in that direction, and we hope nosotros're now in expert shape to meet and master the challenges of the future."
