Smart Inventory Management with Modern Storage Technology
A smart warehouse, also known as an automated warehouse, is where finished goods or raw materials are stored through storage technology, machines, robots, and automated management processes instead of relying on manual labor as before. Machine-assisted activities include safe and swift goods handling into the system, accurate locating of item positions, precise inventory count, and more.
Fully automated warehouses: All operations within this warehouse are performed 100% by robots, with features pre-set through computers or control devices. Managers only need to perform a few actions to access all information about a product and can operate a warehouse spanning thousands of square meters as normal.
Automated retail warehouses: Instead of being fully automated like automated warehouses, only a few processes are performed by robots, such as accessing goods into and out of the system, conveyor belts between the stages of product completion, packaging finished products, and more.
Nowadays, in the digital age, the use of smart warehousing equipment is becoming an undeniable development trend. It has a significant impact on business productivity and differentiation in the fiercely competitive market today. This requires business owners to carefully consider upgrading their warehouses.
"Some small and medium-sized enterprises may not truly see the necessity of warehouse improvement; however, observing large enterprises, we see a gradual shift from traditional warehouse systems to smart warehouses to leverage the benefits that technology and automation bring.
This will become even clearer as the difficult economic phase passes, the market gradually recovers, human demand begins to increase again, and business activities become more vibrant. Certainly, at this time, the volume of goods will increase significantly, and congestion due to overload will be inevitable. Therefore, establishing modern warehouses has become more important than ever.
Using automated storage equipment is the foundation for managing modern warehouses.
A warehouse integrated with various robotic technology factors will create a professional operating environment and bring many benefits to both businesses and workers.
One of the outstanding advantages of modern warehouses is the ability to maximize space savings. Thanks to optimizing the storage system and using accurately operating robots, businesses can efficiently utilize warehouse space, thereby reducing rental costs and enhancing the storage capacity.
Smart warehouse equipment operates automatically and accurately, helping to enhance warehouse operational productivity. Thanks to process automation, the transportation, storage, and retrieval of goods have become faster and more efficient, enabling businesses to quickly and accurately meet customer demands.
Smart warehouses help optimize operation time and minimize errors caused by human intervention in the goods management process. This helps reduce operating costs and enhance work efficiency, while also minimizing potential risks in warehouse management.
Technology and automation are continuously evolving, creating great potential for smart warehouse equipment in the future. Manufacturers are increasingly investing more in researching and developing advanced warehouse solutions, thereby improving performance and integrating more modern features into warehouse systems.
The boundary between a warehouse and a factory will be removed because smart warehouse equipment allows maximum space savings, allowing factories to integrate into warehouses without the need for scale expansion. This helps save costs and time for transportation.
The prospect of modern warehouse equipment is to be present in most medium and large enterprises
AS/RS is an automated rack that enables smart warehouse management, with robots operating autonomously to move and retrieve goods accurately. Notably, this system requires no human intervention or forklifts during the process of moving goods within the warehouse.
To implement this racking, businesses need to have large warehouses and a wide range of products because the investment cost for this system is currently considered the highest among all types.
The Shuttle Robot Racking is an efficient storage solution that utilizes robots moving on rails to retrieve and place goods on racks. This system allows for convenient and optimized storage of goods within the warehouse space.
For this racking system, robots only assist in the input and output of goods to and from the racks. Therefore, there are still warehouse operators to control forklifts for loading and unloading goods. This model appears to be more suitable for the majority of businesses in Vietnam at present.
The Shuttle Eurorack automated racking system is a suitable storage solution for the business model in Vietnam.
To successfully implement smart warehouse equipment, it is essential to understand the trends in warehouse storage in the new era. For more information, read the article: Introducing New Trends in Warehouse Storage Technology.

Vinamilk, a Vietnamese milk brand, applied automated warehouses to its milk supply chain process in 2014, reaching consumers. At that time, the company owned multiple facilities, but its largest and most modern milk production plant was located in Binh Duong province, covering a total area of 20 hectares. The production capacity was about 400 million liters of milk per year, equivalent to nearly 9 combined factories at that time.
Thus, it can be seen that Vinamilk has a long-term vision for the milk market and is determined to lead the industry. To date, the company still holds the highest market share position.
Here are our insights into the market for smart storage technology in the future. If there are any shortcomings, we hope you can provide feedback to help us improve further.
Furthermore, if you also have aspirations to become a pioneering enterprise in your field regarding the use of smart warehouse racks, please contact Eurorack immediately for support.
