Shuttle storage system Shuttle Rack M

Daifuku's multi shuttle system, the Shuttle Rack M, is a fast, vehicle-type AS/RS designed to provide temporary storage, sorting and sequencing functions. It is perfect for the following needs: Manufacturing Buffering products from manufacturing lines and feeding to palletizing robots by product group Parts picking for high-mix, low-volume production Picking parts for customer orders at a maintenance parts center Distribution Buffering between primary batch picking and secondary order assorting Buffering finished order cartons/totes until shipment and feeding by delivery group Buffering depalletized products and feeding by sequence or group to create mixed pallets Features High-density storage with flexible location management The Shuttle Rack M can handle multiple types of containers and cardboard boxes. A free-allocation management function by the controller automatically adjusts the storage location according to the size of the load, allowing for high-density storage. Easy Maintenance Faulty shuttles can be replaced with little disruption to the system. Other shuttles continue to operate while maintenance is being performed on one shuttle. By controlling the number of active shuttles, maintenance can be systematically performed on each shuttle without interrupting the handling process.
