Incap UK installs vertical storage system to optimise PCBA management

Incap UK installed two vertical storage systems to enhance PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly) storage, boosting efficiency, accuracy, and order fulfilment speed. The investment is expected to improve stock handling efficiency by at least 40%.

These systems, standing at 5.5 metres high and 4 metres wide, are the first of their kind within Incap Corporation. They optimise space by consolidating stock, freeing up valuable floor space, and increasing capacity to meet the needs of high-demand industries such as defence, aerospace, and security.

According to Jamie Maughan, Managing Director of Incap UK, vertical storage systems optimise inventory management while also accelerating component kitting time, increasing storage accuracy, and enhancing on-time delivery, ultimately reducing customer lead times. Units integrated with Incap UK’s ERP system provide real-time inventory insights, supporting responsive, data-driven customer service.

“This investment is a significant step forward in our technology roadmap. It boosts our operational capacity and reinforces our commitment to delivering agile and customer-centric services”, Maughan added.
