Shuttle racking is a semi-automatic racking between automated racking and normal racking, which can be turned into automated racking with both other hardware and WCS. It can also be controlled manually using a remote control. Shuttle racking is suitable for dense storage scenarios and can make the maximum utilization of the warehouse up to 90%. Shuttle racking can effectively reduce the number of forklifts used. The overall investment cost of shuttle racking is not much higher than through racking, so more and more customers are choosing it.
The installation requirements for shuttle racks are the same as those for automated warehouses, as the racks need to have tracks laid on them for the shuttle cars to pass, so a high level of flatness is required. In addition to installation, the processing requirements for shuttle racks are also higher and require smaller production errors, so ordinary racks cannot be converted to shuttle racks.
The number of shuttle cars of shuttle racks can be reasonably configured according to the actual requirements. And according to the characteristics of the stored goods, the first-in-first-out or last-in-last-out options are available in the design, unlike the through racking, which can only be first-in-last-out.
