Durable Components
How It Works
Axis2 Shuttle is loaded into the racking.
The free roaming multi-directional pallet shuttle navigates the racking via intelligent shuttle control and software. It moves north, south, east and west to move pallet loads for put away and picking. Genuine 24/7 operations are afforded thanks to innovative load management and modern energy storage systems
The transfer process of the pallet and shuttle between levels of the racking system is done via a vertical conveyor.
The shuttle charges its battery via an in-rack charging station.
