Eurorack WiFi Shuttle Racking is an intelligent automated storage system designed to maximize warehouse space utilization and enhance operational efficiency. The shuttle operates via WiFi connectivity and is remotely controlled using a smartphone or tablet, enabling flexible and accurate pallet handling within high-density racking systems. By eliminating the need for forklifts to enter deep into the racking lanes, the system shortens handling time, reduces energy consumption, and significantly minimizes the risk of collisions in the warehouse.
Wifi Shuttle Racking includes 7 basic details:
- Robot running speed when loading goods: 40m/min.
- Robot moving speed: 72m/min.
- The shuttle operates continuously for up to 8 hours in cold storage and 10 hours in ambient-temperature warehouses on a single charge.
- Equipped with sensors to detect people and obstacles, enhancing operational safety.
- Operating temperature range: -30°C to 55°C, ensuring stable and long-lasting performance.
- The Shuttle rack optimized design and sturdy structure increase storage capacity up to 85% of warehouse space
- Secure inventory control through sensors.
- Automatically pick up goods, move pallets in and out flexibly, speeding up import and export speed.
- Minimizes collision risk because forklifts do not need to move into shelves.
- Long-term cost efficiency, shortening operation time and significantly liberating manual labor.
- Robot Shuttle racks allow goods to be imported and exported using both LIFO and FIFO methods.
- Shuttle Wifi automatically loads and picks up pallets continuously on the principle of receiving remote control commands.
- Cutting aisles to focus on improving storage space.
- Suitable for storing food, beverages, supplies, production materials, etc.
The Shuttle Racking System (Orbiter) combines the use of the Eurorack Shuttle Robot (Orbiter) and a forklift to transport and store goods within the warehouse. Goods are stored and retrieved in the racking system based on either LIFO (Last In, First Out) or FIFO (First In, First Out) principles, making it ideal for warehouses handling uniform or low-SKU inventory.
During operation, the forklift places pallets onto the rail at the front of each racking level. It then lifts and places the Eurorack Shuttle (Orbiter) onto the rail, where the shuttle automatically moves to the first available position within the lane. The movement and functions of the shuttle inside the rack are fully automated and controlled via operator commands sent from a Wi-Fi-connected tablet.
The Shuttle Racking System (Orbiter) is widely used across various industries, including:
- Food, beverage, and consumer goods warehouses with large-volume storage.
- Heavy industrial warehouses storing semi-finished or finished goods.
- Warehouses with medium to high SKU counts.
- Warehouses requiring fast inventory turnover and real-time stock control.
However, when operating in cold storage environments, the shuttle system may require customization to ensure optimal performance based on the specific conditions of the warehouse and the characteristics of the stored products.
