High Speed Buffer ASRS Technologies
Duosys Mini Load ASRS
Daifuku’s DUOSYS is an incredibly fast and efficient mini load automated storage and
retrieval system (ASRS) that can act as a high speed buffer as well.
MultiShuttle™ Mini Load ASRS
Dematic's Multishuttle™ Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) can dramatically
increase speed, accuracy and throughput when handling cases, totes and trays. It's inherent
flexibility enables it to be easily adapted to any shape or size building, including existing
buildings with lower ceilings.
How High Speed ASRS Buffers Work
This technology has the ability to accept a random variety of carton sizes, store them and then send them back out in a new, customer specific sequence to build the final order. The system uses a unique high performance design that makes the buffer ideal for high-volume box handling and sorting operations. This type of application is often found where “Store Ready” or “Rainbow” pallet orders are being created. As a result of the speed of this technology, the need for accumulation conveyor lanes can be eliminated thus saving space, system complexity, and expense.
Also described as a 3-dimensional buffering sorter, the Sorting Box buffer saves valuable floor space with its compact foot print and heights up to 50 ft. tall, Likewise, the units are relatively modular, making expansion simple. Additional modules can be added as needed to increase the capacity of this high-density storage buffer.
This technology is designed with variable speeds in all axis which Bastian Engineers will match your throughput requirements. Servo and vector drives support vertical, horizontal, and shuttle movement or smooth, precise load control that prevents damage. Despite its high speed, the equipment is remarkably quiet, operating at typical office sound levels.
High Speed Buffer ASRS Features
- Controls – The high speed sorting buffer contains end-of-aisle controls using the latest processors and user-friendly menus guiding operators to quickly diagnose any errors.
- Multiple Speed Options - multiple speed options are available allowing you to pick the machine that matches your requirements. This includes high-speed order picking.
- Multiple Heights – Allows you to maximize the use of your overhead space, from 10’ to 50’ high.
- Small Footprint – Each module has a footprint as narrow as 7’ and is easily installed close to the factory or warehouse use point.
- Easy maintenance – Designed with modular construction and built-in diagnostics simplify installation and maintenance.
- Space Efficient – This AS/RS provides easy access to totes, multiple items per tote and likewise permits computerized location tracking for thousands of SKU's.
- Designed for integration – The system is easily integrated with conveyor or ergonomic order picking workstations.
