Controllable, predictable costs and labor factors
AS/RS is a high-velocity form of automation that takes aim at the variables. While these systems reduce labor demands, speed throughput, maximize space and reduce errors, their most critical value is sheer predictability. When you reduce dependence on factors of various types, you take control of your future needs.
Does AS/RS fit your needs?
While these questions require in-depth consideration, they are always worth considering:
- Are you short on space? Do you foresee a new or expanded facility?
- Are you short on labor? Do you foresee that situation improving?
- Are order picking errors an ongoing issue?
- Is the operation fast enough? Do you need to move more product, faster?
- Is replenishment is a struggle?
- Are safety concerns driving change in your operation?
