A Review on Automated Storage/ Retrieval Systems and Shuttle Based Storage/Retrieval Systems
Main Article Content
Abstract
Automated storage and retrieval systems are warehousing systems that are used for the storage and retrieval of products in both distribution and production environments. Shuttle based storage/retrieval systems are composed of elevators with lifting tables that are attached on a mast, shuttle carriers, buffer positions and the storage racks. It is observed that the shuttle based storage/retrieval systems increases the throughput capacity of the systems compared to automated storage/retrieval systems. Shuttle based storage/retrieval systems is relatively a new technology in automated storage and retrieval systems and usually works with aisle and tier captive shuttles. This new technology is mostly used for mini-load warehouses. The main body of the paper consists of an overview of literature discussing automated storage/retrieval systems and shuttle based storage/retrieval systems.
