About This Product
■What is an automated warehouse?
An automated warehouse is a multi-tiered high-rise shelving system that uses stacker cranes, control devices, storage equipment, etc. to automate loading and unloading operations. In many cases, it is not built as a standalone unit, but is often combined with a conveyor system or an inventory management system to form a sophisticated system. The types are generally as follows.
■By handling unit
Pallet type, carton (cardboard) type, plastic container type, long items
■With structure
Stacker crane type, storage shelf rotation type (vertical type, horizontal type)
■In the usage environment
Room temperature specifications, frozen/refrigerated specifications (~-30℃), hazardous material (explosion proof) specifications, clean room specifications, etc.
■For the purpose of use
Stock, temporary buffer, sorting (shipping ordering device)
■Features/benefits
By automating the receiving and shipping process, labor and labor savings can be expected. If you use the height effectively, you can significantly increase the storage capacity compared to laying it flat. By linking with the inventory management function, you can improve the accuracy of receiving and shipping. Separate storage and work areas improve worker environment and safety.
Points to consider when considering introduction
■Machine capacity setting
When considering introduction, it is important to set the machine capacity to satisfy the numerical requirements for warehousing and retrieval. It is necessary to allow a margin of about 20% more than the given maximum value for the set value. If the capacity of the stored items increases significantly over the years of use, it will be almost impossible to increase the machine capacity through post-construction work, so the solution will be to install more machines.
■Measures against downtime
If the stored items are thrown out and stopped due to a power outage (power outage) or an earthquake, receiving and shipping operations will be impossible, so it is necessary to consider in advance countermeasures until recovery.
■Running cost
- When calculating cost-effectiveness, it is necessary to include the amount of electricity used each month.
- From the second year onward, concluding a maintenance contract is a necessary condition for stable operation.
・It is important to understand the estimated annual maintenance costs at the time of installation.
■Renewal plan
Control equipment often undergoes model changes or becomes obsolete after about 10 years, so it is necessary to consider updating.
