Example systems
More storage. Less handling. See the designs.
Use these reference designs to explore storage and flow. The figures describe each example. Your layout depends on your building, loads and operation. Footage illustrates system operation.
Pallet four-way shuttle AS/RS
41,500 pallet positions. Less manual handling.
A reference design for dense battery-material storage. Deep shuttle lanes and lifters put building height to work and reduce manual pallet moves.
- Pallet locations
- 41,500
- Height
- 21 m (69 ft)
- In and out
- 200+ pallets per hour
Equipment in this design
- 30 pallet four-way shuttles
- 7 lifters
- WMS, WCS and API
Reported results for this reference design
- Labor
- 70% lower: from 20 workers to 6
- Space use
- 5x higher than before
- Storage cost
- 50% lower
- Efficiency
- 40% better
Mini-load + pallet four-way shuttle + VNA + mezzanine
Small parts and bulky pallets. One flow.
A reference design that pairs tote picking with dense pallet storage. AMR integration links the work areas under one WMS.
