Storage
Goods are stored using a Fully Automated Storage and Retrieval System which could comprise of stacker cranes, conveyors, AGVs, RGVs, Shuttles, etc. The efficiency in warehouse storage is a critical factor of Warehouse Productivity.
- The system automatically assigns location based on the Location-Assign algorithm, giving the row/bay/sub bay/level of the location to store – based on ABC sales rank/other criteria
- Provision for supervisors to manually assign/un-assign/reassign location for Bin FM and Pallet FM areas
- The system is well integrated to generate control and transport commands that will be routed through the Warehouse Control System for the ASRS system to store & retrieve, and control hundreds of equipment including conveyors and cranes
- The system then receives the response sent by the ASRS system and updates the status of equipment, configuration, and settings
