Mini Load ASRS
Automated Storage and Retrieval System for Small Totes, Cases, and Trays
A Mini Load ASRS system automates the storage and retrieval process for items weighing less than 350 pounds. By establishing a vertical, automated storage system, these technologies enable warehouses to have a reduced storage footprint with efficient, automated throughput.
Mini Load ASRS stacker solutions perform with excellence in environments in which high throughput rates are required for picking totes or cases within a distribution center. They significantly increase the storage density of a facility while substantially improving the accuracy and speed with which products are stored, picked, and transferred throughout a facility.
As a solution for moving products as quickly as possible from storage to staging, these systems can also serve as a short-term buffer system or act as manufacturing support for production operations.
The operator-friendly Mini Load ASRS is simple to incorporate into the current material flow. Operators can integrate several solutions with Mini Load ASRS, including conveyors, carton flow with pick-to-light systems, or rail-guided sorting vehicles.

Benefits of Mini Load ASRS
- Speed and Accuracy – Able to facilitate high volume throughput in order picking or manufacturing environments
- High-Density Storage – Uses vertical space better than traditional rack systems – high accuracy placement of loads leads to optimized storage
- Unmatched Efficiency – With speed and accuracy, the high-speed solution automatically stores and retrieves loads before handing them off to operators eliminating time spent seeking and retrieving objects
- Multiple Applications – Mini Load ASRS are ideal for arranging goods in a specific order before sorting, which boosts the effectiveness of subsequent handling procedures
- Minimal Power Consumption – Newer, lightweight models use less power than older models and can operate in lights-out condition
