Warehouse Automation for the Food Machinery Industry: Efficiency, Sustainability and Digitalization with Vertimag\u00ae<\/h2>\n

How can industrial logistics become more efficient, sustainable and digital while prioritizing employee health and safety?<\/h3>\n

ITECA S.p.A.<\/a>, is specialized in the design and manufacture of industrial bakery production equipment, selected Ferretto\u00ae to transform its material handling and storage operations with two Vertimag\u00ae vertical lift modules (VLMs) integrated with its enterprise management system.<\/p>\n

The project combines space optimization, process automation and workplace ergonomics to support production growth while improving working conditions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Founded in 1994 in Pal\u00f9, near Verona, Italy, ITECA designs and manufactures automatic and semi-automatic production lines for industrial bakeries, serving customers in Italy and international markets.\u00a0As the company expanded, the volume of materials requiring storage doubled, making it necessary to rethink warehouse organization.<\/strong><\/p>\n

ITECA decided to move from conventional horizontal storage to an automated vertical storage system to maximize available height, centralize component storage and accelerate picking operations.<\/p>\n

Valentina Marchesini, from ITECA S.p.A.’s Sales Department, explains how vertical warehouse automation has improved internal logistics efficiency while creating new opportunities for digitalization and sustainability, with employee health and workplace safety remaining key priorities.<\/strong><\/p>\n
