In an era where supply chain efficiency dictates competitiveness, traditional warehouses struggle with high error rates, wasted space, and rising labor costs. The solution? Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS). Tianjin Master, a leader in warehouse automation, breaks down how AS/RS revolutionizes logistics.
What is AS/RS?
An AS/RS integrates hardware (e.g., stacker cranes, four-way shuttles, pallet shuttles) + software (WMS/WCS) to automate inventory management from receiving to shipping. Core components include:
Storage Structure: Automated Racking
Handling Equipment: Stacker Cranes, Four-Way Shuttles, Pallet Shuttles
Control Center: Warehouse Management System (WMS)
Top 5 Warehouse Pain Points Solved by AS/RS
Low Space Utilization → Vertical Storage
AS/RS uses vertical space up to 25m+ high, increasing storage density by 300%.
