Operate smart warehouse with automatic storage system

ASRS Rack - Warehouse Automation Solution

ASRS (Automated Storage and Retrieval System) rack is a fully automated storage system, where the handling of goods is done 100% by robots. As a result, the operational productivity is maximized. The warehouse is managed by software that limits theft situations - a common issue in large warehouses.

The only limitation of ASRS racks is the requirement of a large initial capital investment. This barrier makes it difficult for most businesses to operate this system. However, with the right initial investment, the advantage for your business operations is enormous. The foremost benefit is saving a large amount of labor and warehouse management costs.

Automated Storage and Retrieval System(ASRS)

Operating Principle of ASRS Rack

  • When pallets are stored in the warehouse, the system manages all information related to the goods through barcodes. The system automatically calculates and arranges the storage positions depending on criteria such as size, weight, and classification area. Furthermore, the warehouse management system is integrated with IoT to calculate the shortest path from the input position to the storage position to save time and energy.
  • The speed of goods retrieval and storage depends on various factors such as warehouse scale, system capacity, industrial conveyor belts, and autonomous robots. However, compared to traditional warehouses, automated warehouses provide superior efficiency. The operational activities run smoothly and steadily thanks to the integration of conveyor systems, 90-degree curved conveyors, transfer carts, industrial robots, and barcode systems.
  • In addition to automatically retrieving and storing goods efficiently, the AS/RS pallet warehouse system also has the ability to manage the expiry date of products to provide forecasts for managers to plan sales and shipments in the future.

Radio Shuttle Rack - Enhanced Pallet Storage Efficiency Solution

The Radio Shuttle rack is an automated pallet storage rack system that uses self-powered robots to move pallets independently within the rack system. The transporting robots run on rails on the rack, creating a high-density storage rack system, optimizing the use of space in the warehouse as much as possible.

To move towards an automated, intelligent warehouse operation, Eurorack's team of engineers has researched, designed, and produced an automated rack system (Radio Shuttle rack). This will be the main rack system contributing to the optimal management of goods in the warehouse, applicable in today's intelligent automated warehouse ASRS systems.

Operating Principle of Radio Shuttle Rack

  • Goods In: Robots are placed on rails, the forklift will lift the pallet onto the robot, press the control to start the robot, lift and move the pallet containing the goods to the required position.
  • Goods Out: Press the control to make the robot run deep into the rack, pick up the pallet containing the goods to the front of the rack, and the staff will pick up the pallet containing the goods using a forklift.

Mobile Rack - Space Optimization Solution

Mobile racks can move back and forth on a rail system arranged on the floor, thanks to the connection with mobile structures. The structure of the mobile rack consists of independent rack rows close to each other. The movement is completely controlled by electric motors.

The most outstanding advantage of this heavy-duty rack type is that the manager can move each rack or entire rack rows individually. Just press the control button to access any pallet containing goods in the system without any obstacles. This is a special feature that no warehouse rack system currently has.

Optimize cold storage space with Mobile Racking system

Operating Principle of Mobile Rack

Mobile Rack operates very flexibly with 3 mechanisms to suit each time of the warehouse: Full-Width Opening Mode, Half-Width Opening Mode, Equally Spaced Mobile Rack Mode:

  • Full-Width Opening Mode: This mode is for forklift loading and unloading, activated when the forklift moves and unloads goods. It can be opened in any row in a system. Forklifts can move and access the aisle easily, saving both time and effort.
  • Half-Width Opening Mode: This mode is for manual picking without the need for a wide aisle. Workers can move and pick goods in the warehouse easily at selected pallets. Instead of stacking goods from one side, the mobile storage rack allows opening both ends of a rack row to save energy and time.
  • Equally Spaced Mobile Rack Mode: This mode is suitable for inventory picking operations. Thanks to the equally spaced mode, air circulation is good and even between rack rows. Suitable for cold storage warehouses.
