Concept:
- Maximize space utilization & storage density
- Optimization of storing, loading & retrieving full pallets
- Perfect integration with the various warehouse logics: LIFO/FIFO/Both
- Efficient organization of the warehouse
Standard Functions:
- Storing – The operator selects a cart and loads the cart into the desired lane. Once the cart is loaded, the operator can then position the pallet to be stored into the front position. The operator then simply selects the command he wants to give the cart via the hand controller. The cart will pick up the pallet and store it in the next available position.
- Retrieving – Similar to the storing process, once the cart is placed in the lane, the operator selects retrieve. The unit cart travels the lane until the first available pallet is located. The cart picks up the pallet and returns to the home position. Pallet needs to be removed before the cart can accept any other command.
- Continuous retrieving – Same functionality as retrieving except once the pallet is removed from the home position, the cart will automatically return to retrieve the next available pallet.
- Manual setting of distance between pallets from 20 to 150 mm (3/4″ to 6″) – In case of pallet overhang, the pallet spacing can be independently managed via remote controller. The distance between pallets can be increased directly from the handset.
- Remote controller is able to control up to 4 carts simultaneously
- Missions counting
- Cycle counting – carts have functionality that allows them to be used to count the # of pallets in any lane for the purpose of inventory or cycle counting
- Automatic maintenance notices
