Although we know that each area plays an important role in logistics, warehouse automation is key to standing out and staying competitive with efficiency and precision, becoming one of the most important links in the supply chain.
Optimizing space utilization, reducing operating times, and improving inventory management are some of the many advantages achieved by integrating revolutionary, cutting-edge tools such as the 2D Pallet Shuttle System.
In this blog, we explain in detail how this innovative system stands out with hundreds of advantages and applications.
2D Pallet Shuttle: The Simplest and Most Effective Automation Solution
The 2D Pallet Shuttle system is an automated storage technology that uses state-of-the-art robotic vehicles. These systems are designed to provide a more dynamic, flexible, and scalable operation.
The 2D Pallet Shuttle system was not only conceived as an autonomous design that helps achieve more compact storage but also integrates energy improvements. Compared to traditional systems, where forklifts are required for each pallet movement, the 2D Pallet Shuttle enables faster, more precise operations.
Advantages of the 2D Pallet Shuttle System:
• Certainty in Operation: With no critical point of failure, there is no downtime, including maintenance.
• Adaptability: The system is highly scalable in storage and performance, flexible for warehouses with low heights or an asymmetrical layout.
• Cost optimization: Due to the reduced layout space, as well as operating and maintenance costs.
• Cold storage: Robots generate much less heat compared to cranes or forklifts, and they optimize space due to the high storage density, taking advantage of every corner.
• Lower energy consumption: Since this is a system where robots consume and recharge energy, they optimize consumption.
• Simple maintenance: System maintenance falls on the conveyor carts and lifting systems, as they are the dynamic components of the system.
What management system accompanies the 2D Pallet Shuttle System?
The automated movements of a 2D Pallet Shuttle System are controlled by the Execute WCS (Warehouse Control System). Its main function is to improve the processes themselves and enrich the intelligent dynamics of the distribution center, making it a functional tool, proven with a well-supported interface in several industries, such as the food and beverage industry, retail, e-commerce, and the pharmaceutical sector, improving product flow and reducing order processing times.
If you are looking for a solid foundation to face future challenges in inventory management and logistics, the 2D Pallet Shuttle System is an advanced solution that helps you improve, save time, and save space.
