New Pallet Shuttle AS/RS System Provides Labor Savings & Economical Automated Pallet Handling
Conveyco’s new two and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) pallet shuttle systems provide economical goods-to-person automation for organizations pallet storage, retrieval, sorting, buffering and sequencing activities.
These systems can eliminate up to 2/3 of the required labor, 85% of otherwise wasted floor space and a significant portion of the forklifts you are using today. The systems aisles are designed for robotic shuttle transportation, not the wide aisles associated with human and forklift use. Because there is no single point of failure, these systems are ideal for mission critical operations.
Every organization’s throughput is accommodated with the correct pallet shuttle model. In facilities where pallet storage and retrieval are predictable, a 2D pallet shuttle will have the number of required robotic shuttles on each level of the system. For operations which have less predictability, a 3D pallet shuttle allows robotic shuttles to be automatically dispatched to all of the systems levels providing additional throughput and flexibility.
The pallet shuttle systems can handle a wide range of pallet sizes up to 48” x 48” and a maximum load of 3,300 lbs. in a range of temperatures from +120 degrees F to minus 22 degrees F. These automated systems improve inventory accuracy, order turnaround times, inventory visibility, and worker safety while reducing the reliance on forklift operators (and forklifts) for storage and retrieval tasks.
With the system’s open scalability expanding as your business grows, the shuttle systems are a future-proof investment that drives optimization through advanced controls integration and data-driven warehouse management. Implementing pallet shuttle technology will boost your throughput, lower your fulfillment expenses, and provide a competitive edge.
Boost productivity and maximize storage space with pallet shuttle systems. These automated storage and retrieval technologies efficiently handle 24/7 inventory and order fulfillment tasks with fewer workers needed to oversee operations. By using the facility’s available vertical space, pallet shuttles fit 2-3 times as many pallets into the same warehouse footprint compared to traditional racking methods. The combination of dense storage capacity and automation enables companies to accurately manage a larger inventory while accelerating order processing – all in less floor area. Investing in a pallet shuttle system not only optimizes warehouse workflows, but also improves the bottom line through minimized labor costs and maximized storage density.
