AUTOMATED WARE-HOUSING FOR PALETTES:

This warehouse is particularly suitable for housing spare parts and componentry which are stored in special reticular containers with a capacity of up to 1,500 kg. The loading and/or refilling activity is carried out via the use of a “loading bay” especially equipped with a “weighing platform” and a “shape checking device”.

The operator in charge of the warehouse has the use of a computer onto which the loading and unloading lists are “imported” from the central computer system. The  “VELOX” robot extracts the containers to be loaded from the warehouse, hands them over to the “shuttle” which transports them to the “loading bay” where the operator physically carries out his work.

The operators assigned to “picking-up” operations carry out their activities via the use of three “unloading bays“ which are also fitted with a local processing unit directly interfaced with the central computer system from which it receives the “picking-up list”.

As in the case of loading, also for the unloading operations the “VELOX” robots take care of “picking up” the relative containers and hand them over to the “shuttle” which deposits them in the three “picking up” bays leaving the operators free to carry out their specific activities.

The containers used for both the loading and unloading operations are returned to the warehouse by the reverse route, from the “bays” to the “shuttle” and from there to the “VELOX” robots.
