Installation at Nitin Spinners

UV Hitech (P) Ltd. with its corporate office in Mumbai was established in the year 2000 with an intention to serve the textile Industry on an all-India basis with creative solutions for improving productivity and quality along with energy conservation. The solutions covered all the segments of the textile industry ranging from cotton ginning to yarn, fibre to fabrics and knitting, finishing nonwoven, made-ups and manmade textiles and garments. The expansion of production capacity of the Indian textile industry was realised through the most modern technologies evolving around the textile machinery world.

However, it was soon realised that the industry had very poor infrastructure for storage and supply chain and was seeking to find the right solution. UV Hitech appreciated these requirements and offered to the textile industry the best and the most efficient warehousing solutions in partnership with Automha Italy with the following features:

• High throughput
• Traceability of raw material and goods produced
• Dense storage
• Lowest footprint
• Low operation cost by employing less manpower
• Low-cost warehouses.

The textile industry has a complex matrix in terms of the huge number of intermediate processes, different technologies, production capacities for final goods such as ladies’ wear, men’s garments, children wear, sportswear, seasonal wear, casual wear, knit wear, furnishing fabric, nonwoven, technical textile, etc. and therefore the warehousing solution becomes complex and has to be customised. Depending upon a customer’s needs a solution is developed, which can be a fully automatic or a semi-automatic warehouse with the latest management software. The tallest warehouse built so far is 38 metres with an uptime of 98.5%.

Some of the solutions implemented are as follows:

• Multi-deep grey yarn storage solution
• Dyed yarn automatic storage and retrieval system
• Fully automatic single roll storage solutions
• Fully automatic double deep storage solutions with rolls in pallets
• POY yarn fully automatic warehousing solutions
• DTY fully automatic warehousing solutions
• Grey knits fabric semi-automatic warehouse
• Finished knit fabric semi-automatic warehouse.

These solutions allow the textile companies to expand their production base, improve warehouse management, arrange for timely dispatches with fewer mistakes and share real-time information of raw material and finished goods, etc. The company will highlight all such technologies at its Stall No. BC 7 | 18 at Texfair to be held at Coimbatore from June 24-27, 2022.
