Autostadt Car Towers the ultimate storage system
Autostadt in Wolsfburg is well known for their car towers, a 150 feet tall transparent cylindrical building. The towers consist of high rise stacks that are fully automated and deliver about 600 vehicles on an average per day.
This transparent building made of glass encased steel construction servers both as a storage system for approximately 800 new cars and also as a Landmark. Because of its nightly illumination these towers are visible even from a far distance, they look spectacular.
Those visiting Autostadt can now experience the CarTowers from inside - CarTower Discovery (TurmFahrt). This is a special panorama lift which follows through the same procedure as one of the 800 Volkswagen cars and it accommodate 6 guests who can experience and see for themselves how the system works.
The cars are loaded in advance 24 hours before the delivery is made. The customer service agent then signals the system which then sets a car shuttles in motion. The shuttle then picks up the correct vehicle and sends the message to the centre of the tower. The car is then lowered to the ground floor, through a tunnel into the car distribution centre. The number plates are then mounted and the vehicle is then delivered to the customer.
