Automated Warehouse Racking System Pallet Shuttle Animation

This animation shows the fully-automated, high-density pallet storage RAFT AS/RS system at work receiving pallets from an intake conveyor:

1. Pallets arrive/depart via conveyor to the vertical transfer unit (VTU).
2. The system selects the optimal pallet storage location.
3. Vertical transfer units (VTU) move pallets between levels.
4. RAFT robots deliver & take-away pallets from storage positions.

Unlike traditional one-directional shuttle systems, RAFT (Right Angle Fast Transfer) AS/RS is a 2-dimensional “lift and run” system. Pallets are lifted to the designated storage level, transferred both cross-lane and down-lane – to the next available pallet position. Maximum storage density and pallet accessibility are as easy as that!

Swiftly navigate the changing landscape of order fulfillment with cutting-edge automation and software. Easily configurable WMS and WCS work seamlessly with RAFT to deliver your custom, adaptable, order-fulfillment solution.
