Intelligent Automation Design for Scalable Warehouse Operations


At Precision Warehouse Design, we specialize in delivering end-to-end material handling automation solutions that help warehouse managers, ecommerce directors, and supply chain executives overcome operational inefficiencies and scale with confidence. Our on-staff PLC programmers and gold certified Ignition programmers help you streamline everything from order picking to conveyor control, giving you oversight, flexibility, and the visibility needed to thrive in today’s high-speed logistics environments.

What Are Automation Controls — and Why Do They Matter?

Automation controls are the digital nerve center of a modern warehouse. These systems manage the logic, sequencing, and coordination of your mechanical equipment—from conveyors, sorters, and lifts to AS/RS and robotic systems.

Precision control systems ensure each component of your operation works together seamlessly. Whether you’re integrating a new subsystem or optimizing an entire facility, our warehouse automation design ensures higher throughput, fewer errors, and a future-ready infrastructure.

Why leading facilities invest in automation controls:

  • Operational Efficiency

    Automate repetitive tasks, eliminate bottlenecks, and reduce downtime.

  • Data-Driven Decisions

    Get real-time visibility into system performance and material flow.

  • Cost Reduction

    Lower labor costs, reduce product damage, and minimize energy waste.

  • Scalability

    Our modular automation control designs adapt as your operation grows.

  • Safety & Compliance

    Fewer manual touchpoints mean safer, code-compliant processes.

  • Supervisory reporting and controls: allows operations management to immediately understand how a process and system are performing and what needs to change in order to optimize throughput

Real Operational Benefits of Automation Engineering Solutions

Our systems deliver measurable gains across your warehouse:

  • Increased Throughput

    Automated sequencing and load balancing reduce delays and idle time.

  • Improved Accuracy

    Precision logic cuts down on misroutes, inventory errors, and human mistakes.

  • Faster ROI

    Engineered solutions that pay for themselves through labor savings and productivity gains.

  • Remote Monitoring & Control

    Stay in command with dashboards and alerts tailored to your workflow.

  • Seamless System Integration

    Synchronize automation with your WMS, ERP, and existing control infrastructure.
