Minimum intervention, maximum effect – a retrofit by LTW retains the stable basic substance of your installations and systems, at the same time as significantly increasing their life span. Thanks to the many years of experience accumulated from more than 550 completed retrofitting projects, LTW covers the entire modernization and upgrading performance spectrum. As a full-service provider, we can assist you with all aspects of your retrofit project – from consulting and project planning to engineering and after-sales support.
If a material flow system is getting a bit long in the tooth, routine servicing is often insufficient to ensure perfect operation. The system is more prone to failure and spare parts are no longer available on the market. Plus, if the system is also no longer state-of-the-art and component manufacturers no longer offer support. The consequences of all this are often a reduced handling capacity and less economic efficiency. The best and most cost-effective solution here can be a retrofit, building on the basic substance of the system.
From beginning to end – the retrofit team is the point of contact for all your needs, throughout the entire project. It all starts with an as-is analysis and project planning. Not only do we replace components, we also offer complete system refurbishment if desired – regardless of whether third-party installations or LTW systems are involved. The aim is to restore performance to the level of a new installation through customized system modernization, with minimal interruption to business operations.
We start with the as-is analysis. The retrofit team checks the status of your existing system on-site, as well as using internal documents to search for possible sources of error. The customer then receives a comprehensive report and advice on how to proceed. When planning the project, we always pay special attention to the cost/benefit gains. As the high-bay warehouse is a central interface in many companies, the availability of the intralogistics is a top priority – so the implementation often runs in stages, while operation is ongoing, to keep downtime to a minimum.
The result of any system modernization is better availability – but you should never lose sight of the cost. A retrofit by LTW guarantees a reduction of your maintenance costs, ensures that replacement parts are available, and implements new technological functions. Functional reliability is sure to increase and sources of error are minimized. Now that you have a remote diagnostic option, fewer call-outs are required to your site – something else that saves you money.
Upgrading the old logistics IT to the current state-of-the-art boosts functionality for system operators. For instance, adjustments are made to identification solutions (barcode readers, RFID), order picking solutions are introduced, and operating systems, database servers, and the installed software are upgraded. Also not to be forgotten is the positive effect this has on the future maintenance unit – the flow of data is continuous, thanks to the new monitoring and evaluating tool.
After Sales
A major challenge in support and maintenance is the provision of spare parts. But here, too, LTW is in an excellent position. We offer you spare parts supplies for in-house and third-party trades. If you want to be on the safe side, we will be happy to put together plant-specific spare parts packages to ensure access as quickly as possible. Alternatively, you can also order conveniently from our digital spare parts catalog - as it visually depicts all plant components, selection is particularly easy.
Trainings
In modern highly automated high-bay warehouses, only a few people move around - but they are the ones who matter! To ensure smooth operation of the automated systems, we equip you with the necessary know-how. In training courses and training units specially tailored to your needs, our trained specialists will teach you everything you need to know about your complete logistics solution in a transparent and comprehensible manner - on request, these can take place on site or at our headquarters in Wolfurt.
