Job Introduction
Keep systems running, keep performance high.
As a Flow Controller, you ensure seamless material flow, act fast on disruptions, and minimize downtime. Working with engineering and site teams, you help hit performance targets and build strong, trusted customer relationships.
ICA Sweden partners with TGW for the delivery of an automation solution for the warehouse operations of ICA's newest cold store in Hacksta, Västerås, which should go-live in February 2026.
The new highly automated cold storage facility is approximately 23,000 square metres, and TGW will deliver the automation solution for the warehouse operation of the new warehouse.
The solution from TGW consists of a 30-metre-high fully automated pallet warehouse with a dynamic shuttle system that provides direct access to each product in ICA’s cold store, which shortens the lead times for store picking.
Goods are shipped in sequence and packed store-specifically at fully or partially automated packing stations, which pack the store orders onto trolleys. The different parts of the automation solution are connected by energy-efficient conveyor belts for pallets, cartons, and parcels. All modules of the solution have been developed and tested to work in temperatures of -25 degrees.
As a Flow Controller, you will be at the start of the realisation of this newest TGW project for ICA in Sweden.
