Semi-automated, high-density storage
The stow Atlas® pallet shuttle system is a deep lane storage and retrieval system. The heart of the system is a carrier used to move pallets within a specifically designed racking structure. This results in optimized storage capacity.
stow Atlas® 3.0 is the newest generation of the stow shuttle, with a higher performance level and a top reliability, thanks to quality components and a simple design.
The operation
The pallet shuttle system consists of a specific rack and a mobile shuttle. This shuttle is a self-powered device that runs on rails in the storage lanes to load and unload pallets. The forklift places the Atlas 1D Pallet shuttle for retrieval and/or replenishment
These tasks are communicated by the forklift driver using a remote control. Once the task is completed the shuttle returns to its home position and is then ready to be transported with a forklift truck to a new lane for a new task. Each shuttle unit runs on lithium batteries with a long operating times (up to 16h) and a short charging time (max 3h).
Characteristics
- Speed: 2.6 F/s loaded – 3.2 f/s empty
- Load capacity: 55 Lbs. – 3,300 Lbs.
- Different pallet types can be used: euro, industry & combined. Also big bags, CP 1-9, plastic pallets.
- The system is designed to work in temperatures down to -22⁰ F.
- The lane depth is unlimited.
- Long lasting batteries are included to maximize Atlas 1D Pallet Shuttle operating times.
- The electro-mechanical lifting device is easy to maintain, and ideal for cold store applications.
- LIFO and FIFO are possible in the same installation.
- Inventory counting capability.
The highest possible storage density
By introducing more shuttles into your racking system, the performance will increase. The system can be used for new installations as well as for refurbishments, and is independent from the number and the depth of the lanes. The automated system guarantees the highest possible storage density.
