Advantages and Disadvantages of the 4 Direction Warehouse Radio Shuttle Rack

The four-way shuttle car is one of the very important intelligent handling equipment in the automated three-dimensional warehouse. The shuttle car can travel along the vertical or horizontal track direction on the cross track through the high-precision guide rails installed on the three-dimensional warehouse shelf, and reach any designated warehouse. Cargo location, for automatic warehouse entry and exit of unit materials. At the same time, the guide rail of the shuttle car has both the functions of cargo transportation and cargo storage, which can greatly improve the utilization rate of storage space.

1. Advantages of shuttle racks

1 quantity of goods. Each track of the shuttle shelf can reach a depth of 35 goods, while the one-way distribution of other shelves is generally controlled at a depth of 7 goods, and only two-way distribution can make the depth of goods greater, but some are controlled at 14 goods depth.

2 Space utilization. The rack rails are designed side by side, and can be made into multiple rows, giving greater depth to the cargo space. Compared with other shelves, forklift access is reduced, and the space utilization rate is naturally higher. The space utilization rate of ordinary heavy-duty shelves is 30%~35%, the space utilization rate of fly-in shelves is 60%~70%, and the space utilization rate of shuttle shelves is about 80%.

3 commodity management. The shuttle car can sort out and count the pallet goods on the track according to the counting order, which greatly reduces the management cost and ensures the safety of employees. It is a new type of storage option for palletized goods.

4 Operating costs. Although the cost of the shuttle bookshelf is higher than that of ordinary bookshelves, it is much lower than that of the automated three-dimensional library. It is cost-effective and can be effectively used in various industries. From the current use point of view, the cost input is still super value. After all, the shuttle rack reduces the number of personnel by more than half, saves labor costs and improves work efficiency.

2. Disadvantages of shuttle racks

1 In order to ensure the smooth operation of shuttle racks, there are high requirements for the accuracy of racks, guide rails and floors. The space shuttle is the core component of the system, and its quality is directly related to the after-sales cost of future users.

2 The investment cost and maintenance cost of the system are relatively high, and a professional and reliable service team is required to be responsible for maintenance, and the maintenance cost is also relatively high.

3 A single storage item cannot be accessed randomly.

4. The size of the shuttle rack board is not standardized, and each shuttle rack board cannot be used in common use.

5 If the equipment breaks down, the rescue time will be longer.
