Automation of De Paauw Buffer Warehouse by DGS

Succescase

Bakery De Paauw, a modern bakery with a strong focus on automation, has once again partnered with DGS to further optimize its production process. Previously, an automated storage and buffer system was implemented, including two robots for stacking and unstacking lids on baking pans. Now, the exchange of baking pans has also been fully automated.

Less manual labor

Previously, the exchange of baking pans was done manually twice a week – a time-consuming and labor-intensive process. DGS has fully automated this task with a robot that removes pans from the line, stacks them, and reintegrates them into the process when needed. Combined with the existing automated storage system, fewer staff are required and switching between pan formats is faster and easier.

Trust in collaboration

One of the major challenges in this project was the limited space. By using robotic technology, a compact and hygienic solution was created that supports a stable and continuous baking process. The fact that Bakery De Paauw once again chose to work with DGS shows the trust in this partnership and rightly so: this project was successfully completed as well.
