The goods-to-person principle is used to determine the organization of the vertical shelving. Carousels are constructed in a manner that is analogous to that of ferris wheels; specifically, they are made up of a series of shelves. This means that they move quickly and safely around a track in order to deliver items that are stored to a work counter that has been arranged in a manner that is ergonomically sound. At the operator's instruction, everything was completed successfully. Vertical carousels are able to reduce the amount of floor space they require by as much as 75% because they take advantage of the ceiling height that is available. They have the potential to bring about a productivity increase that is approximately two thirds greater than that which is brought about by standard shelving.
Shelves, which are sometimes referred to as carriers, can be arranged in a number of different ways to produce a unique storage system and make the most of the space that is available. Each carrier has the capability of being outfitted with inserts, rollout drawers, intermediate shelves, partitions, and specialty holders. It can also be configured to hold a variety of different things, including items, totes, containers, cases, and cartons, depending on the specific configuration chosen.
When properly integrated, vertical carousels are capable of performing the functions of either standalone work stations or integral parts of larger work zones. Carousels that are vertical and stand on their own are driven by a standard controller, which allows the operator to move the carriers around the track and stop them when necessary. These carousels are freestanding. Through the utilization of inventory management software, the vertical carousel can be integrated with an already established ERP or WMS system. This, in turn, results in increased levels of productivity, accuracy, and security.
Further Information Regarding the Pick-to-Stock Shelving Carousel
99.9% accuracy is the maximum level that can be reached through the utilization of light technology. The position lights that are installed at the work counter offer the operator assistance in picking by shining a light beacon in the area from which they should pick. These position lights are located at the front of the work counter. A light bar that is attached to the pick face of the vertical carousel and labeled as a Transaction Information Center (TIC) provides the operator with information regarding the precise location of the pick at all times. The TIC also has the ability to display supplementary data, such as the number of items that need to be picked up, the part number, and a description of the part.
The Pick-to-Light technology is built in, and the system's compact design brings the items to the person working the register. There are also doors that lock on both sides and can bipart.
This software provides both password protection and transaction tracking, as well as a safety light curtain with an emergency stop, a high MTBF rate, and an emergency hand crank. Each Item Is Placed At The Appropriate Height Before Delivery.
Storage Carousel in the Shape of a Horseshoe
Shelving Carousels are a product that Vidir developed especially for the purpose of providing a high storage density for items that are heavier and more cumbersome. The product is brought directly to the operator by the automated storage system, which is how the system works. Because of this, it is no longer necessary for the operator to stoop or climb in order to retrieve items that are cumbersome or heavy. Within the confines of this mechanical shelving concept, the carrier frequently customizes one-of-a-kind applications that do not conform to conventional system standards. These customizations are done in order to meet the needs of individual customers.
Increases the Total Amount of Available StorageYour available storage capacity can be increased with the Shelving Carousel because it makes use of the vertical space that is typically left unused by traditional shelving systems. This space can be utilized to store more of your belongings.
The Shelving Carousel is able to haul up bulkier items than those that can normally be stored in a typical vertical carousel. This is made possible by the fact that it possesses a number of large carriers in a variety of sizes. In addition, the Shelving Carousel product line that Vidir offers is qualified to receive a heavy-duty upgrade that, once it is installed, is capable of achieving lifting capacities of up to 15,422 kilograms or 34,000 pounds. This upgrade is available at an additional cost.
Timeframes for Retrieval That Are Both Swift and Effective
Implementation of automated vertical carousels, such as the Shelving Carousel, has the potential to bring about a significant improvement in the effectiveness of order processing. This is brought to your attention as a result of the concurrent reduction in the amount of time spent retrieving items and the increase in the precision with which they are picked. The Shelving Carousel is equipped with order processing software that not only maintains an accurate record of your inventory but also manages your pick lists. This makes it possible for you to retrieve the items you require in a quick, dependable, and stress-free manner.
Enhance Efforts Regarding Health and Safety
When the product-to-person principle is put into practice, steps that are inefficient and possibly hazardous that are associated with stocking and retrieving components are eliminated. Shelving Carousels from Vidir guarantee that employees will always be working at heights that are both safe and beneficial for their bodies. Because of this, you won't need to walk as much, bend over as much, or rely on any other haphazard methods of retrieval. Ladders and cherry pickers are two examples of pieces of equipment that can help increase health and safety in the workplace.
