What is Warehouse
automated storage
Warehouse conveyor systems are handy tools used in warehouses and distribution centers to move goods, materials, and products efficiently from one spot to another. These systems make it easier and faster to transport items, boosting overall productivity and safety. They come in various types and setups, each designed to handle specific tasks and environments.
Types of Warehouse automated storages
We’ve teamed up with almost every manufacturer to ensure you get exactly what you need, whether you’re after custom solutions or ready-made options
storage and retrieval
Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) offer high-density storage with a compact footprint, tailored to the specific needs of your operation. These systems deliver the speed and efficiency.
Pallet Storage systems
Belt Conveyors: These use a continuous belt to move items, ideal for transporting goods over long distances or across different levels.
Vertical Lift Modules
Sortation conveyors are specialized systems designed to quickly and efficiently sort and direct products to specific locations within a warehouse or distribution center.
Custom automation
All warehouses aren't the same. Our Designers and engineers work with you on building the right system.
THE RIGHT AUTOMATION FOR YOUR WAREHOUSE
Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS) are ideal for efficiently managing high volumes of products entering and leaving storage. These systems are frequently used to enhance manufacturing and distribution operations by saving time with their quick throughput capabilities and maximizing space with their vertical design. ASRS can integrate seamlessly with your current or planned operations, providing enhanced inventory storage security.
UNIT-LOAD ASRS
Typically used in warehouses or distribution centers with high pallet load handling needs, these systems are especially popular in freezer applications where maintaining manual labor is challenging, and storage density is crucial. They are also ideal for areas with high labor and property costs, making the investment in automation worthwhile.
MINI-LOAD ASRS
Typically used in warehouses or distribution centers with high pallet load handling needs, these systems are especially popular in freezer applications where maintaining manual labor is challenging, and storage density is crucial. They are also ideal for areas with high labor and property costs, making the investment in automation worthwhile.
CUSTOM
ASRS
Standard storage and load handling options aren’t always the best fit for unique challenges. Custom automation is often needed for precise or delicate handling, maneuverability within tight tolerances, or extreme environments. Custom solutions address these specific needs. At WELCH, our engineers ensure thorough testing in our ISO 9001:2015 certified facility. They also incorporate sensors, fall arrest systems, and motor amperage management into the custom design and operations of any ASRS solutions developed.
