Stacker Crane ASRS
Rack Automation
Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS) thrive in applications where high volumes of inventory move in-and-out of manufacturing or distribution operations. Upgrading to an automated storage system improves throughput and efficiency with reliable, secure storage that eliminates damage to products and equipment while providing safer, more ergonomic working conditions.
Metafold Solutions experts have designed and integrated automated storage solutions across a variety of industries and product handling needs. With this expertise, they can assess your operational needs, business objectives and technology options to identify a right-sized automated solution to reliably and effectively handle the complexities of moving and storing payloads in your facility. From large, heavy pallet storage to smaller, lightweight goods, or custom features that accommodate unique requirements, our experts work with you to integrate the appropriate level of flexibility and functions to support current labor availability, security of goods, throughput and efficiency, and maximize your vertical space for reduced facility expansion costs.
Applications
ASRS Stacker Cranes follow the goods-to-person (GTP) principle and are managed by a central system for inventory control and crane coordination.
The horizontal carriage on the mast offers two options:
Telescopic forks can efficiently handle single or double deep racks, making them versatile for various materials and handling needs. This solution is limited to selective pallet racking, after every four deep pallet an additional aisle is required.
Telescopic Forks for high throughput but lower batch quantity
Integrated Radio Shuttles cranes, racking structure is converted into high-density racking. The horizontal carriage stops in front of the desired bay, and the radio shuttle travels within the rack for pallet storage or retrieval.
Integrated Radio Shuttles for larger batch quantities but lower throughput.
