Automated Storage & Retrieval System – ASRS
An Automated Storage & Retrieval System (ASRS) consists of Computer Controlled & PLC based stacker crane driven system for automatically placing & retrieving materials from defined storage locations. The ASRS is generally used in situations involving high volumes of goods storage. It allows more storage space due to high-density storage & narrower aisles. It exploits the vertical height of each Warehouse. An ASRS based storage automation solution increases the efficiency of Material Tracking, handling and overall throughput. Inventory is maintained on a FIFO basis and is managed through our advanced Inventory Management System, which also interfaces with the electromechanical components to optionally control the pick and place operations.
Safety Features
Safety sensors as per FEM 9.754
Racking structure design standard as per FEM 9.831 requirement
Storage retriever machine as per FEM 9.311
Advantages
Space Saving
It utilizes complete length, height and depth of the stores to ensure high density storage.
Cost Cutting
A single retriever over the long storage space reduces system cost.
Flexibility in Material Storage
Material with variable weight, sizes and shapes can stored.
Quick Retrieval
The retriever moves in both planes simultaneously and ensures quick retrieval.
Security of Material
The system is closed from all the sides and there is only one window for storage and retrieval of material.
Easy Expansion
Over a period, racks can be added in the existing system.
Reduced Manpower
The entire storage system can be handled only by one or two persons.
Time Saving
More number of cycles per hour reduces time in material retrieval.
Advanced Inventory Management Software
Tech-Mark provides a specially developed software for Complete Inventory Management which can be easily integrated with the existing ERPs & other systems.Software also functions as an integrated component of a warehouse management system which can help users to accurately track, store & retrieve material from locations at a distance within a warehouse.
