Mini Load AS/RS Racking: Automated Storage for Smaller Goods
Mini Load AS/RS (Automated Storage & Retrieval System) is a space-saving, automated storage solution ideal for warehouses and distribution centres handling small to medium-sized items like cartons, totes, and trays. It utilizes a combination of high-bay racking structures, stacker cranes, and warehouse control software (WCS) to efficiently store, retrieve, and manage inventory.
Maximized Space Utilization: Mini Load AS/RS eliminates wide aisles needed for forklifts, allowing for more storage capacity within the same footprint.
Improved Efficiency and Productivity: Automated retrieval and storage significantly reduce order fulfillment times and labor costs.
Enhanced Inventory Control: The Warehouse Control System (WCS) provides real-time inventory tracking, minimizing errors and improving stock rotation.
Increased Safety: By minimizing manual interaction with stored goods, the risk of workplace injuries is reduced.
Scalability: The modular design allows for system expansion as your storage needs grow.
Racking Structure: High-strength, lightweight steel racks with multiple storage levels.
Stacker Cranes: Automated cranes navigate aisles, retrieving and depositing goods with precision.
Load Handling Devices: Telescopic forks, robotic arms, or vacuum lifters handle various load types.
Warehouse Control System (WCS): Manages system operations, optimizes storage locations, and integrates with warehouse management software (WMS).
Warehousing and Distribution: Ideal for storing high-volume, fast-moving inventory in various industries like electronics, pharmaceuticals, and automotive parts.
Manufacturing: Streamlines production line supply by efficiently managing parts and components.
E-commerce Fulfilment: Enables rapid order picking and retrieval for fast and accurate delivery.
Mini Load AS/RS offers a perfect balance between automation and cost-effectiveness for warehouses handling smaller items.
The system's modular design allows for customization to meet specific storage requirements.
Improved inventory management and reduced errors lead to significant cost savings.
While the core racking structure is designed for mini-load applications, there may be variations within a system
Double Deep Racking: Provides two storage locations per bay, maximizing space utilization.
Carton Flow Racking: Utilizes gravity-fed lanes for efficient picking and faster order fulfillment.
Console Supported Racking: Offers additional structural support for taller systems.
Mini Load AS/RS provides a powerful solution for optimizing storage space, enhancing operational efficiency, and improving inventory management in warehouses and distribution centres dealing with smaller goods.
