Transform Warehousing with Armstrong Shuttle ASRS

Adopting new and more advanced warehousing techniques in the current logistics landscape is crucial to stay up-to-date with market trends. Shuttle ASRS is your solution to better warehousing. Managing storage facilities is an integral part of successful businesses, and ASRS with shuttle makes storing and retrieving goods relatively easier. Armstrong comes to your rescue with shuttle-based ASRS that transforms your warehouse and optimises the storage area.

How Does Shuttle ASRS Operate?

ASRS with shuttle involves three quick steps:

• Using fleets of shuttles on aisle tracks between racks and shelves.

• Shuttles position themselves in front of the correct shelf to load the product.

• The shuttle moves from one end of the rack, loads/unloads the goods and returns to its original spot.

Features of Shuttle-Based ASRS

• Covers Multiple Levels: Depending on the workload, a shuttle can operate on multiple levels, starting from a single floor, using an elevator at the end of the aisle.

• High-density Storage: The shuttle system is the go-to warehousing method because it adapts to dense storage locations.

• No Downtime: Unlike traditional methods, shuttles require no downtime. They run on computer-managed software, automatically recharging them when the battery is low. If a shuttle lags, Armstrong's backup shuttles resume operations.

• Optimising Space: Shuttles do not require a manual workforce and forklifts, clearing space in the storage area and allowing you to use it for better or high-priority tasks.

How Do Shuttle Systems Benefit You?

What makes shuttle ASRS stand out is the plethora of advantages it offers.

• Quick and Reliable: ASRS with shuttles save you time and resources. The Automated Storage and Retrieval System loads and unloads goods swiftly and timely, especially in high-density warehouses.

• Higher Throughput: Shuttle systems might have a heavy initial investment, but their sustainability and efficiency make it worth it. They are time-saving machines that boost efficiency, productivity, and warehouse performance.

• Adaptability and Scalability: Shuttles offer you flexibility. Armstrong's shuttles adapt to different loads, regardless of size and weight. Additionally, floor limitations do not bind them, allowing them to cover multiple levels.

• Small Machines: ASRS with shuttle is the ideal solution for your warehouse, no matter the space. Since shuttles are small devices, you can install them anywhere and use them to carry goods from one location to another speedily and safely.

• Secure Inventory: Computer-powered software controls shuttled-based ASRS, preventing unauthorised access to your inventory.
