An automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS or AS/RS) consists of a variety of computer-controlled methods for automatically placing and retrieving loads from specific storage locations. Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) are typically used in applications where: there is a very high volume of loads being moved into and out of storage; storage density is important because of space constraints; no value adding content is present in this process; accuracy is critical because of potential expensive damages to the load. AS/RS can be used with standard loads as well as nonstandard loads.

 

A self-supporting system is a system that integrates the shelf as a supporting structure of the whole construction. All pallet racking storage systems (be they conventional, drive-in, dynamic, etc.) can be converted into self-supporting systems by adding the appropriate elements to support walls and roof, as well as all the rest of the installations and accessories required for the correct operation of the construction.

Refrigerated storage helps in eliminating sprouting, rotting and insect damage. In general, there are three groups of products, foods that are alive (e.g. fruits and vegetables), foods that are no longer alive and have been processed in some form (e.g. meat and fish products), and commodities that benefit from storage at controlled temperature (e.g. beer, tobacco). Cold storage helps stabilize market prices and evenly distribute goods both on demand basis and time basis.

There are two main types of refrigeration system used in cold storage warehouses, a Vapour absorption system (VAS) and Vapour compression system (VCS). VAS, although comparatively costlier, is quite economical in operation and adequately compensates the higher initial investment.

Some warehouses are completely automated, and require only operators to work and handle all the task. Pallets and product move on a system of automated conveyors, cranes and automated storage and retrieval systems coordinated by programmable logic controllers and computers running logistics automation software. These systems are often installed in refrigerated warehouses where temperatures are kept very cold to keep product from spoiling, especially in electronics warehouse where they require specific temperature to avoid damaging the parts, and also where land is expensive, as automated storage systems can use vertical space efficiently.

A warehouse management system, or WMS, is a key part of the supply chain and primarily aims to control the movement and storage of materials within a warehouse and process the associated transactions, including shipping, receiving, putaway and picking. The systems also direct and optimize stock put-away based on real-time information about the status of bin utilization. Warehouse management systems often utilize Auto ID Data Capture (AIDC) technology, such as barcode scanners, mobile computers, wireless LANs and potentially Radio-frequency identification (RFID) to efficiently monitor the flow of products. Once data has been collected, there is either a batch synchronization with, or a real-time wireless transmission to a central database. The database can then provide useful reports about the status of goods in the warehouse.

The fully adjustable long-span shelving system is designed for storage of light to medium heavy loads. It lends itself to use in almost any situation: shelving racking, long span shelving, multi tier and high rise installations. The system offers the benefits of quick assembly, good stability and low cost. LSS is dedicated for the storage of hand loaded heavy products, such as machinery equipment and tools. The system is also suitable for the construction of multitier constructions.

pallet racking system allows the storage of a wide range of products with easy access. Conventional is a "classic" of the storage solutions. Racking installation with broad aisles is the most common solution for storage. Stocking is done with forklifts, reach trucks, front stackers, stacker cranes or order picking trucks. Conventional racking can also be realized as a narrow aisle installation. In this case, loading and picking is mostly done by rail-guided or wire-guided specialist trucks. When storing a large number of pallets, double-depth racks can be installed, enabling one pallet to be placed in front of another on each side of the aisle.

conventional racking has a flexible usage area with its adjustable beams for storing pallets and metal boxes. With our specially designed beams you can store the maximum amount of pallets or boxes based on your warehouse dimensions. Aisle of pallet racking is depend on the mhe used for access the material.

types of pallet racking

• conventional pallet racking
• double deep pallet racking
• very narrow aisle (vna)
• asrs racking

The Pallet Runner system combines the density of Drive-In systems with the benefits of pallet-flow systems and be easily positioned and repositioned by conventional forklifts. The system uses self-propelled intelligent carts that run along rails to shunt full pallet loads in and out of the high density storage structure.

The Pallet Runner can be set up for true FIFO (first-in/first-out) or LIFO (last-in/first-out) operation. Forklift operators are free to focus on bringing product to and from the system, without the need to drive into the rack, as the Pallet Runner cart operates automatically and independently within the system. It can operate anywhere from ground-floor level to the highest level of the rack.

Carton flow is a form of shelving that uses a gravity feed rear load design. Each unit consists of one or more inclined runways. Merchandise is loaded in the rear of each runway. As an item is removed from the front, the item directly behind it slides forward in place of the previous.

Put simply, the main advantage of carton flow rack over static rack or shelving systems is that merchandise remains better organized and easier to find/pick. With carton flow rack, the product is automatically rotated on a first in first out basis. Merchandise is stocked in the rear of the carton flow rack and moves toward the picking station in front on an inclined shelf equipped with specially designed roller track. When a carton is removed from the picking station, the next one in line rolls to the front. Carton flow always keeps items within reach. Inventory is easier to monitor and control since products are fully visible at all times.

Cranes and Trolleys, generally equipped with a hoist, wire ropes or chains, and sheaves, can be used both to lift and lower materials and to move them horizontally. They are mainly used for lifting heavy things and transporting them to other places. They may use one or more simple machines to create mechanical advantage and thus move loads beyond the normal capability of a man. They are commonly employed in the transport industry for the loading and unloading of freight, in the construction industry for the movement of materials and in the manufacturing industry for the assembling of heavy equipment.

Steel Mezzanine Floors enables you to maximize the utility of the working height of your space to its optimum level. This can be achieved by doubling or tripling the surface area, using various options with flooring that match your requirements. These can be designed for office spaces, packing areas, changing rooms, storage areas and various combinations.

Advantages of Steel Mezzanine Floors

• They increase your floor area, in your existing space.
• They are quick, clean and easy to install.
• They can be disassembled, moved and re-assembled at another location and can also be increased or decreased in size to suit your future needs.
• The custom design and manufacturing of these floors and the range of flooring types and load-carrying capacities allows us to meet specific customer needs.

Mezzanines can also carry racking and shelving systems on them. Railing and access stairs are designed and installed as part of our Mezzanine Floors. They can be made in as many tiers as the per specific customer needs.

• Chipboard (Wooden)
• Slotted and Galvanized floor
• Slotted and perforated galvanized floor
• Metal Grating.
• Concrete Flooring

We have specially designed Galvanised Mezzanine Floor decking (Code : MF-02) for the movement of Trolleys. There are distinct advantages of the flooring compared to the Normal Mezzanine (Big Slots) Decking.

A pre-engineered building (PEB) is designed to be fabricated using a pre-determined inventory of raw materials and manufacturing methods that can efficiently satisfy a wide range of structural and aesthetic design requirements. Historically, the primary framing structure of a pre-engineered building is an assembly of I-shaped members, often referred as I beams. In pre-engineered buildings, the I beams used are usually formed by welding together steel plates to form the I section. The I beams are then field-assembled (e.g. bolted connections) to form the entire frame of the pre-engineered building. Some manufacturers taper the framing members (varying in web depth) according to the local loading effects. Larger plate dimensions are used in areas of higher load effects.

Other forms of primary framing can include trusses, mill sections rather than 3-plate welded, castellated beams, etc. The choice of economic form can vary depending on factors such as local capabilities (e.g. manufacturing, transportation, construction) and variations in material vs. labour costs.

As rising fuel prices drive energy costs up, operations costs rise likewise, cutting into corporate budgets and eroding profits. Much of this pressure can be reduced by improving time management with key material handling equipment & supplies that make plant and distribution labor less time intensive and less hazardous to workers.

Drive-In Racks allow a lift truck to enter the rack from one side to pick up or pull out pallets. This is done because pallets can slide backwards on a continuous rail. Forklifts drive into the rack to access pallets, two or more deep. You are limited in the depth of storage for a particular bay by the size of your facility. Drive-In racks are typically subject to more abuse than selective racks due to the way they are utilized, so rack integrity and strength are important factors. It is ideal rack for cooler or freezer applications.

We are offering mobile storage systemmobile shelving or roller racking systems are specialized storage units designed to offer increased capacity for a given footprint over traditional storage units. By eliminating the need for an aisle between every shelving unit, more floor space can be utilized for storage. Each unit is mounted on a level track way (to eliminate gradients in the supporting floor), making it possible to move heavy units with minimal effort. Mobile shelving can be moved manually or by the use of electrical motors.
