Shuttle car stackers are very efficient in high-volume warehouses with referenced Pallets
As this is a compact warehousing system, the use of available space is maximized
Easy WMS management software optimizes all reception and dispatch processes
Stacker cranes lift the goods and move them sideways improving the location and pick-up times.
The car shuttle moves pallets from the entry position to the position determined by the Easy WMS management software.
For the exit point, the management software uses extraction rules: stackability, batches and expiry dates.
It also uses the LIFO system: Last in, first out.
Pallets are always put in place at their widest side
The shuttle car is connected via a cable transmitting power and data
Using a shuttle car saves manoeuvre times in each operation.
