Well-known Korean E-commerce Apparel Concern ‒ E·LAND
The E·LAND Group is South Korea’s leading apparel manufacturer. The Tianan Logistics Center supports online and offline sales for various brands and accommodates around 800,000 items and over 100,000 SKUs. Advantages
1. AMR transformation and implementation within the existing warehouse completed in three months
Despite the adverse impact of COVID-19 in 2020 the intelligent remote support function of Mushiny was able to complete the inventory transfer covering an area of 6,100㎡ (65,660ft²) and the AMR warehouse implementation
in just three months. The actual storage capacity exceeded 750,000 items, and the peak storage capacity inexcess of 800,000 items with over 100,000 actual SKUs in storage.
2. The accuracy of inventory counting up to 99.99%.
The Intelligent Robot Execution System (iRES) ensures that the system operation is synchronised with the physical operation at the time of picking and storing goods. Through the iRES's storage rules configuration,
manual operational decisions governing complexity such as a large variety of SKUs, inventory or order profile are automated. It is also possible to historically interrogate processes and retrieve associated data to provide complete traceability.
3. Reduce the number of operators by 40%
After the AMR system goes live, the number of routine operators is reduced from 24 per day to 16 per day for the same quantity of orders.
4.Save 32% of storage area
Design scheme with eight different PODs/totes are employed. Taking into account two dimensions, the size and weight of goods, the all-new "Buge PODs," "Suspending Totes," and "Four-sided PODs" are introduced.
This can achieve a POD filling rate of over 60% and reduce the storage area from 6,100㎡ (65,660ft²) to less than 4,100㎡ (44,132ft²).

5. Flexible design
All the fixed workstations employ the functional design, and types of tasks can be adjusted at any time in light of on-site requirements. Accordingly, the PDA storage workstations that can be added or deleted at any time are reserved and configured. This enables the on-site team to select the most appropriate operation strategy based on the type of inbound goods. These efforts aim to facilitate the consistency of offline and online businesses.
