Details about the ASRS racking system

– The AS/RS racking system is specially designed to buffer, store, and retrieve products and inventory as needed.
– It consists of multiple computer-controlled systems to automatically place and retrieve loads from defined storage locations. Loads can be standard as well as non-standard.
– The automated storage and retrieval system operates under computer control, maintaining an inventory of stored items. It is designed for automatic storage and retrieval of parts and items in manufacturing, distribution, retail, wholesale, and organizations.
– The automated warehouse picking system can not only efficiently and safely store items in a compact area but also allows users to retrieve items easily and quickly when needed.
– Automated pallet racking systems (also known as AS/RS storage systems) are most commonly used in manufacturing and distribution facilities.
– Storage with AS/RS means that accurate, real-time data is kept on inventory, eliminating the need for physical inventory checks and also providing direct access to items at all times.
– The use of an ASRS storage system increases throughput and efficiency, saves space – because they often replace large areas of shelving to save floor space, improves safety, and reduces construction costs.

Warehouse operation with ASRS solution

Advantages of ASRS systems

– Efficiency
ASRS storage systems bring requested items directly to the operator via a convenient height and the shortest possible route. This cuts down on the time operators spend walking, searching, lifting, and bending, and reduces operator fatigue and work-related injuries.

– Improved picking accuracy
ASRS automated storage and retrieval systems use light-picking technology to guide operators to the exact location of the stored item, achieving a 99.9% picking accuracy rate.

– Increased throughput capacity and space savings
Maximizes the use of floor space and ceiling height within existing buildings, and uses space more efficiently, which is especially important for businesses that have no more room to expand or in locations with high land prices.

– Low cost
Automated warehouse picking systems require less than 2/3 of the labor to operate compared to manual racks, reducing labor costs and other operating costs; reducing or avoiding capital expenditures for building expansion or new construction.

– Easy maintenance

– Greater inventory control
Automated pallet rack systems manage inventory so you always know what you have and, more importantly, where it is.

– Security
User and group permissions can be controlled and managed. Transactions can be tracked and real-time inventory data provided. Improved ergonomics and safety, leading to fewer accidents.
