Coca-Cola Singapore embarked on this journey as part of its digital transformation strategy
Coca-Cola has launched five new autonomous forklifts (AGVs) at its regional beverage concentrate plant in Singapore, in partnership with XSQUARE Technologies (XSQUARE), Asia Pacific’s leading intelligent warehouse automation solutions provider.
Coca-Cola Singapore embarked on this journey as part of its digital transformation strategy. The company supports one of the fastest growing regions in the world, and by embracing Industrial 4.0 capabilities into its plant, it will be able to build supply chain resilience into its system and increase plant capacity in anticipation of future growth opportunities.
XSQUARE’s Springer AGVs have been integrated into the plant’s shop floor and automated warehouse to transport finished goods within the premises. In addition, autonomous forklifts have been incorporated with Coca-Cola’s existing sub-systems and can operate in hybrid working environments. This is enabled by XSQUARE’s Xymphony software, which allows for seamless data interoperability and increases operational efficiency.
“Coca-Cola is proud to launch our new AGVs with XSQUARE, leveraging their deep expertise in warehouse optimisation and cutting-edge technologies. This marks a new milestone in our Industry 4.0 transformation journey.”
“Through our partnership with XSQUARE and ongoing efforts to fully automate our plant in Singapore, we hope to continuously improve our processes, create higher value-added jobs for our workforce, and contribute to Singapore’s vibrant ecosystem for advanced manufacturing,” said Gerardo Artavia, Plant General Manager, Coca-Cola Singapore.
