Automated internal logistics All of Dematics’s projects at L ’Oréal are based on a similar concept: AGVs transport packaging materials such as jars, bottles, flasks, boxes, as well as lids, caps and labels from the warehouse shelves at the back of the building to the filling lines. After filling, the finished products are collected in boxes and then stacked on pallets by a robot. As soon as a pallet with finished products is ready at the end of the filling line, the AGV will travel to the pick location and transport the pallet to the wrapping line. It is then ready for transport to one of the many distribution centres in neighbouring countries, or a distribution centre nearby for products for the German market. Dematic started with AGVs for the plant in Soprocos (France)
