facilities for the storage of goods - Part

In the first part we saw the types of simple structures, consisting of fixed components, which require the use of torque wrenches for the handling of cargo units.
We see this second part of the systems that have moving parts in support of moving equipment, or carrying out fully the activities of moving cargo units.

compactable shelving
These structures consist of movable spans of shelves that slide on rails on the ground, and make available the sites for sampling only after movement of the shelf itself.
are suitable for storage of goods at low rotation, due to the low index of accessibility to locations and often are used in the storage of paper documents.

Automated warehouses
This storage where storage takes place in fixed facilities, but that are served (in payment or collection of goods) by automatic machinery.

There are different types of automated warehouses:
- vertical storage carousel : develop in height, and have storage drawers in solidarity with a chain, have very fast payment and levy high enough, and are thus used for low rotational

- vertical lift Stores: same principle of development in height, but with the difference that Storage drawers are handled independently by a central lift, which makes much faster access to goods, as well as allow the programming of movements in search of the minor cycle time

- warehouses served by stacker cranes : yes Stores in pallet racking is often self-supporting, in which the horizontal and vertical movement of loads columns are performed by robots equipped with trucks and rail travel: the loads are located and collected, a full unit load (pallet or cassette), by reading bar codes in a conjunction of target cells, while all the operations of translation , cycle forks and provision of goods are carried by electric motors coordinated by a specific software. Optimize workloads IN and OUT from the store, while on the other hand, once made, are difficult to expand, unless you add new lanes

- warehouses served by shuttles on tracks : I am the last found in terms of automation in storage: it's infrastructure that can be adapted to existing stores, putting shelves with rails movement when operating the buses have electronic controls, for the handling of full pallet. We are now implementing the first systems of this type: they have the advantage of requiring less investment than is required by the automated warehouses, but, being adapted to pre-existing layout, have lower values \u200b\u200bof productivity.

Good logistics!
