Grand Rapids, MI -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/01/2016 -- viastore Systems recently released a new eBook titled, "15 Myths About Warehouse Automation, Debunked." The eBook is a compilation of the 15 most common myths about warehouse automation, debunked with facts. The seventh myth is: When business grows, just add on to the current building. The fact is that with today's modular systems it may also be possible to fit automated storage into an existing structure, even those with ceiling heights as low as 20 feet. Depending on an operation's stock keeping unit (SKU) velocities and the number of fast-, medium- and slow-movers, and a high-density, low-bay automated warehouse system can optimize even standard-height warehouses. Adding automation increases inventory density by maximizing the cube of a building and freeing up floor space for more product storage or other handling activities.
