Maximum load capacity in combination with a minimum height: up and running

In high-performance intralogistics, there’s no room for compromise. Systems run 24/7, speeds keep increasing, and every component must deliver — consistently.

For a global leader in automated warehouse & distribution systems, the challenge was ambitious:

👉 Develop an overhead order picking system with integrated shuttles that combines maximum load capacity with a minimal footprint
👉 Perform under continuous operation, high acceleration (3 m/s²), and constant start-stop movements

In other words: compact, powerful, and built to last.

✅ The Vulkoprin solution

Engineering the difference
Through advanced simulations and testing, Vulkoprin engineered a tailored solution:

• Lightweight aluminium core for structural efficiency
• Printhane‑X™ (95 Shore A) high-performance polyurethane

Originally designed for extreme high-speed environments, Printhane‑X™ brings a critical advantage:
🔥 Minimal heat build-up — even under continuous, high-speed operation

In automated systems, heat = wear, energy loss, and downtime.
By reducing temperature build-up, this solution delivers:

✅ Reliable 24/7 uptime
✅ Lower risk of unexpected maintenance
✅ Energy-efficient performance through low rolling resistance
✅ Long-term durability in high-intensity operations
