Four-Way Tote Shuttle

Four-Way Tote Shuttle

Automated tote handling within a high-density storage system. The four-way tote shuttle travels longitudinally and transversely on rack tracks to store and retrieve totes or cartons. A telescopic grabber transfers each load between its storage location and the designated inbound or outbound position.

System advantages

• Low-voltage power supply and low energy consumption.
• Efficient inbound and outbound handling.
• High space utilisation with fewer aisles for the same handling capacity.
• Lightweight, precision-manufactured aluminium forks and linear guides for smooth load transfer.
