Jungheinrich to automate Mixvill's new Debrecen logistics centre
Mixvill has commissioned Jungheinrich to automate a greenfield logistics centre in Debrecen, Hungary, including an automated miniload warehouse with more than 60,000 container locations. Jungheinrich is supplying the racking, stacker cranes, conveyor system and control technology.
Mixvill Villamossagi Kereskedohaz, a Hungarian distributor of electrical and construction-related products, has chosen Jungheinrich to automate a new logistics centre in Debrecen. Jungheinrich says the greenfield site will include an automated miniload warehouse holding more than 60,000 containers. Mixvill supplies trade and end customers at wholesale and retail level.
According to the announcement, the miniload warehouse covers four aisles in roughly 1,500 square metres and reaches 14.5 metres in height. Each aisle has one stacker crane for storing and retrieving containers. The facility is planned to run five days a week over two shifts. Jungheinrich is providing the racking structure, stacker cranes, container conveyor system with workstations, and control technology from a single source.
Mixvill says its existing warehouse logistics had reached capacity limits and its processes needed a new approach. The new building is intended to bring those processes together at one site, standardise them and create room for further growth.
For equipment buyers, ask whether the stated container count and aisle layout match your own throughput and SKU profile. Consider how shift patterns affect crane utilisation and maintenance windows. Clarify which control and conveyor interfaces are included, and what support is planned after commissioning.
