The automated warehousing sector has continued to grow at a rapid pace. Driven by excellence and innovation, Jarlam was afforded the opportunity to partner with this global leader to complete the mechanical installation of new equipment.

The project involved the mechanical installation of 3 x ASRS storage and retrieval machines at an existing site in Victoria.  This site was to be fully fitted out with a complete high bay automated warehousing system.

The Challenge

  • Applied practical, safe, and streamlined methods to overcome complex installation hurdles.
  • Navigated severe limitations in workable space and ceiling clearance.
  • Handled the installation of three massive vertical ASRS storage and retrieval machines.
  • Maneuvered heavy-duty machinery standing 12 meters tall and weighing over 9 tonnes each.

The Solution

  • Collaborated with partners to safely install the crane chassis first, followed by the mast.
  • Transported heavy equipment individually and utilized a 55-tonne electric franna to overcome tight space constraints.
  • Deployed a highly skilled, fully ticketed team of fabricators, fitters, and project managers for the mechanical installation.
  • Backed on-site operations with the expertise of Jarlam’s dedicated workshop facilities and professional mechanical engineers.

The Outcome

  • Partnered closely with key stakeholders to ensure the timely and complete installation of the new equipment.
  • Executed precise installation strictly to manufacturer specifications, guaranteeing the ongoing efficiency and optimal performance of the ASRS machines.
  • Delivered an automated solution that empowers the end user with increased production levels, operational efficiencies, and reduced manual handling.
  • Reinforced Jarlam Electrics’ established position as an industry leader in advanced automated warehousing technology.
