Stacker-cranes are designed for automated storage-retrieval of unit loads, in high-bay warehouses. – Take loads into and out of the storage area and move them to the manufacturing floor or loading docks. – Ensure that storing and retrieving goods in pallets, mesh boxes and individual carrier systems happens quickly. – For storage and retrieval they carry out three movements: travel along aisles, lifting and load handling. – They travel in aisles equipped with guide rails, electrical supply, data transmission and control systems. – They are supported on a track and ceiling guided at the top by guide rails or channels to ensure accurate vertical alignment. – Stacker cranes can be of single/ double mast design. They are often supported by a system of conveyors and/or AGVs. – Smaller stacker cranes can often be suspended from the ceiling. – The management software coordinates all the activities, location of stored goods and schedules the retrieval. |

They are typically used in applications where: -There is a very high volume of loads being moved into and out of storage -Storage density is important because of space constraints -No value is added in this process (no processing, only storage and transport) -Accuracy is critical because of potential expensive damages to the load |

An effective automated storage retrieval system provides several benefits for supply chain management. – Reduced labor for transporting items into and out of inventory – Reduced inventory levels – More accurate tracking of inventory – Within the storage, items can be placed on trays or hang from bars. – Facilitates JIT Just-In-Time production by faster organizing of storage of smaller items next to production lines. – Helps companies cut expenses by minimizing the amount of unnecessary parts and products in storage. – Improves organization of the contents of a warehouse. – Increased space savings as it also allows higher storage density, narrower aisles, etc. – Automation reduces labor costs while lowering workforce requirements and increasing safety. – Modeling and managing the logical representation of the physical storage facilities (e.g. racking, etc.). – Popular items, products sold together can be grouped together or placed near delivery area for faster picking, packing and shipping. – Enables seamless linking to order processing and logistics management in order to pick, pack, and ship product out of the facility. – Tracking where products are stocked, which suppliers they come from, and the length of time they are stored. – By analyzing such data, companies can control inventory levels and maximize the use of warehouse space. – Firms are more prepared for demand-supply fluctuatins during peak, seasonal and lean periods. – Data on goods storage provided by the controls can be fed into analytic systems to help companies optimize their supply chain. |
