Alì Supermercati S.p.A.

5/16/2019 / Padua, Italy

The Alì supermarket chain is one of northern Italy’s leading food retailers. The company provides its customers with high-quality, fresh produce from selected suppliers in more than 110 stores. In order to secure its own long-term growth, Alì has invested in a new logistics centre. A fleet of 350 electric forklift trucks is responsible for the internal transport of goods.

The internal transport of goods is handled by a fleet of 350 electric forklift trucks, which are supplied with energy by innovative battery charging technology from Fronius.

These forklifts are part of a rental package with a full-service contract, which also covers the traction batteries. The company relies on innovative battery-charging technology from Fronius to ensure that these load carriers are charged efficiently and reliably. The specialist also installed the Cool Battery Guide Easy information and management system for Alì. This significantly improves battery pool utilisation by intuitively guiding employees to the battery that has been fully charged for the longest and is therefore the coolest. This maintains capacity for as long as possible.

The Cool Battery Guide Easy information and management system has improved the utilisation of the battery pool significantly. A control unit processes the data from the chargers and shows the user which battery has been fully charged for the longest and is therefore the coolest. — The Cool Battery Guide Easy information and management system has improved the utilisation of the battery pool significantly.

The battery charging room is equipped with over 40 Selectiva chargers with power categories of 2 kW and 8 kW. Thanks to the innovative Ri charging process, these are particularly economical in their power consumption and are gentle on the batteries. By using charging technology from Fronius, the supermarket chain has been able to optimise the availability of its forklift trucks and significantly cut its operating costs.
