We ensure the flow of materials

In modern industrial companies, production, warehousing, and logistics processes are seamlessly integrated. If the material flow stalls, machines come to a standstill, production processes are delayed, and delivery deadlines are put at risk. Production reliability therefore begins with a material flow you can rely on at all times.

Whether it’s a rolling mill, press shop, paint shop, or shipping department—every unplanned interruption incurs high costs and ties up valuable resources. Vollert develops intelligent heavy-duty intralogistics solutions that deliver materials reliably, on time, and automatically. In this way, we create the conditions for stable production processes and high plant availability.

After all, even the best production facility can only perform at its best when the right materials are available at the right time and in the right place.

More Than Just Equipment Technology

Vollert stands for reliable, high-performance, and future-proof production processes—going far beyond traditional plant engineering. Stable production begins with a stable supply of materials. That is why we consider not just individual transport routes, but the entire material flow within the plant. Storage capacity, conveyor technology, automation, and control systems are coordinated so that materials are available at all times and bottlenecks are prevented before they arise. This ensures planning reliability—even with increasing production volumes or complex manufacturing processes.

With automated storage, conveying, and crane systems, Vollert ensures a continuous flow of materials between receiving, warehousing, manufacturing, and shipping. Materials are transported as needed and precisely made available—reliably, consistently, and around the clock.

Because every minute counts

Downtime costs more than just lost production time. It leads to delayed delivery dates, additional logistics costs, inefficient use of resources, and dissatisfied customers. With intelligent intralogistics from Vollert, you can reduce these risks in the long term. Seamless material flows, automated processes, and high system availability lay the foundation for reliable and cost-effective production.

This transforms a technical solution into a decisive contribution to the supply security and competitiveness of your facility. Among other things, you benefit from:

a continuous supply of materials to production lines
fewer unplanned wait times and downtime
higher equipment availability
automated transport with repeatable processes
lower error rates in internal material movements
Predictable processes and higher on-time delivery rates

This transforms the material flow from a potential risk into a stable success factor.

Automation as a Solution to the Skilled Labor Shortage

Production reliability begins with a material flow that isn’t dependent on a shortage of skilled workers. The shortage of qualified employees is one of the biggest challenges facing the industry today. At the same time, production volumes, delivery requirements, and the pressure to maintain reliable, round-the-clock operations are all on the rise.

The result: bottlenecks in the material flow, rising labor costs, and a growing dependence on individual skilled workers. With intelligent heavy-duty intralogistics solutions, Vollert creates the conditions necessary for your production to remain efficient even under challenging staffing conditions. Automated warehousing and transport processes reliably handle repetitive tasks around the clock—regardless of shift changes, vacation periods, or open positions.

By automating recurring material flows, experienced skilled workers can be increasingly deployed for more demanding tasks—such as in production, quality assurance, maintenance, or process optimization.

LESS RELIANCE ON SKILLED WORKERS

In many manufacturing facilities, the flow of materials is still heavily dependent on individual employees. If a forklift operator or crane operator is suddenly unavailable, processes come to a standstill. Delays in material supply quickly affect entire production lines. Automated intralogistics reduces this dependence. Materials are transported, stored, and made available autonomously—precisely, predictably, and continuously. This ensures that the material flow remains stable even when staff are in short supply.

UTILIZING SKILLED WORKERS TO MAXIMIZE THEIR VALUE

Qualified employees are too valuable to tie them down with monotonous tasks. By automating recurring material flows, experienced specialists can be increasingly deployed for more challenging tasks—such as in production, quality assurance, maintenance, or process optimization. This not only increases companies’ efficiency but also allows them to utilize their existing human resources much more effectively.

AUTOMATION PROVIDES PLANNING CERTAINTY

Automated heavy-duty intralogistics operates reliably—regardless of shift operations, staffing shortages, or seasonal fluctuations. The systems ensure a continuous supply of materials to production, reproducible and predictable processes, and higher equipment availability. This makes the material flow a stable component of production—rather than a bottleneck.

GREATER SAFETY AND BETTER WORKING CONDITIONS

Many manual tasks are physically demanding and take place under challenging conditions—for example, in steel or aluminum plants. Automated systems reliably handle these heavy and repetitive tasks. This reduces physical strain, improves workplace safety, and creates more attractive jobs for qualified employees.
