SHUTTLE RACK SYSTEMS
It is also known as Drive-in automation. It is thesemi-automatic warehouse rack system and it is possible to apply fifo and filo principle on all loading platforms. In the system with in-depth loading, maximum storage is ensured in the available area.
In this system, pallets can be unloaded sequentially with automated movement of shuttle device.
Commands given to the shuttle device using a command panel can be rapidly performed in accordance with the command.
Shuttle device has an electro-magnetic structure that it is more appropriate than Drive-in system in terms of speed and safety due to private battery and laser readers. Based on the location in projects, system may be also operated according to the first-in-first-out principle. Another positive aspect, in comparison with drive-in system, is that it is not necessary to place same type of articles in each corridor and thus, different articles can be placed on each platform throughout the platforms inside the corridor.
For pallets with different sizes, there is possibility to operate with shuttle device. In the drive-in system, lifting vehicle enters the corridor and operation is performed, while in the shuttle system, mean two folds accelerated operation is performed since products are rapidly taken from front corridor and the shuttle makes products ready on front corridor in an automated manner. It is possible to operate with any and all types of lifting vehicles.
