Pallet AS/RS: Industry-Specific Applications

Pallet automated warehouse

A three-dimensional structure AS/RS that provides the optimal solution for pallet storage. In addition to an integrated construction (building supported AS/RS),
it is also possible to easily install a single three-dimensional rack unit in the existing facility. By integrating other transport equipment like AGV or RTN-X,
it is possible to build an optimal storage and transportation system for efficient material handling.

Details
Environment
(food residuals)
Other processes
Auto Storage and Retrieving System (AS/RS) is used for ageing of food residuals to form compost.
Load detection is done by wire with provision of measures against insect damage.
Optical cables provide protection against insect and dust.
Details
Environment
(medical waste)
Other processes
Inventory control of received wastes is done in manifest units together with control of specific data on leaking, dry, or broken items.
Incineration efficiency calculated according to the weight data is an additional item in the control items list so as to supply wastes to meet the pre-determined incineration efficiencies of the various furnaces.
Details
Handling of Hazardous goods
Other processes
All power equipments are of fireproof construction.
All detectors are of intrinsically safe design.
All safety sensor used in the system are of approved standards.
Safety design features inverter control for smooth speed control to prevent load collapse.
Sectional toothed racks with safety-catch stoppers positioned on the front, back, right, and left sides of the main rack prevent accidents by load falling off the rack.
Height of Sectional rack shelves can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate varying package dimensions.
