Project Overview
This project was delivered for an industrial manufacturing warehouse in Germany, designed to maximize vertical storage density and automate heavy pallet handling operations.
The system adopts a stacker crane AS/RS solution to support large-volume palletized inventory and continuous warehouse operations.
Project Specifications
- Location: Germany
- Industry: Industrial Manufacturing
- Warehouse Area: 1,841.52 m²
- System Type: Stacker Crane AS/RS
- Racking Height: 18.8 m
- Total Storage Capacity: 6,576 positions
- Load Capacity: 2 tons per position
Customer Challenges
The customer faced several warehousing challenges:
- rapid inventory growth
- limited ground space
- requirement for high vertical utilization
- heavy pallet loads up to 2 tons
- need for automated inbound and outbound operations
Traditional pallet racking could not meet capacity and efficiency requirements.
Our Solution
We designed a high-bay stacker crane AS/RS system optimized for heavy industrial goods.
The system combines:
- high-bay racking structure
- automated stacker crane
- intelligent pallet positioning
- conveyor-based infeed / outfeed
This solution maximizes vertical space while reducing manual forklift traffic.
Structural & Technical Design
Technical Parameters
- Total height: 18.8 meters
- Storage positions: 6,576
- Load capacity: 2 tons per position
- High-bay rack structure designed for heavy-duty use
The system is engineered for stable high-speed crane operation and long-term reliability.
Key Project Highlights
- 18.8-meter high-bay warehouse
- 6,576 pallet positions
- 2-ton heavy-duty load capacity
- automated stacker crane operation
- high-density vertical storage
Results & Operational Value
After implementation, the customer achieved:
- significantly increased storage density
- faster goods access
- reduced manual labor
- improved warehouse safety
- stable 24/7 operation capability
The system now serves as the central logistics hub for the facility.
Why This Project Matters
This project demonstrates our capability to deliver large-scale high-bay AS/RS solutions for industrial manufacturing environments.
The combination of heavy load capacity, automation, and high-density storage makes this project an excellent reference for large overseas customers.
