“…Automated storage (AS) and retrieval system (RS) are two examples of engineered systems with extensive automated organizational structures covering aisles, racks, and shelves that can be reached by a retrieval “shuttle” system (ED ROMAINE, 2020). The shuttle system is sometimes known as a mechanized cherry picker since it can be controlled by a worker or completely automated operations can be used to quickly locate a storage item and retrieve it for other purposes (Guo & Liu, 2010; Vasili et al, 2012). Lättilä et al (2013), Chan and Chan (2011), Murty et al (2006) referred that by automating the low-value and simply reiterated duty of inventory storage and retrieval, the AS/RS can greatly help improve the defective product reduction skills by (1) More effective usage of floor space.…”

This study examined the extent of optimal materials handling equipment impact on defective product reduction skills to enhance overall production efficiency, taking steel and iron factories as a case study. To achieve this end, the study was performed by using qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection was employed which represented in the questionnaire survey and semi-structured interviews. Questionnaire instrument already has been tested. Findings of the study revealed that optimal materials handling equipment, particularly storage and handling equipment and engineered systems assist significantly in improving defective product reduction skills by facilitating a shorter operating cycle, reduces handling costs, eliminates unproductive handling of materials, reduces idle machine capacity, and eliminates factory hazards. All this, in turn, enabling optimum usage of space and maintains the quality of materials toward enhancing overall production efficiency in terms of facilitating better customer care and ensuring the production of quality products and in a timely. Based on findings, the study recommended manufacturing organizations management in order to succeed in enhancing operational and production efficiency as a whole, it should give a keen interest in optimal materials handling equipment and give them prioritize as a very vital cost center to defective products reduction.

In this paper we present a supporting roller producing steel tube AS/RS (Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems) system based on the finite element analyzing of shelf structure and logistics optimizing of system layout. The cantilever beam structure of steel tube AS/RS shelf is different from normal type and the strength of shelf is one key point in design. Based on the data of raw/residual steel tubes, we first set the dimension and type of the shelf and beams, and then the finite element analysis is used in single beam design and whole shelf structure strength analysis. Based on the characteristics of steel tube manufacture and the requirements of processes connection, one U type production line is given. The practical application indicates that the mechanical strength, logistics efficiency and flexibility of the AS/RS system we designed accord the needs of manufacture.

“…The S/R machine is arguably the most important component in an ASRS. Since a twin shuttle system is about 40% more expensive, its throughput capacity should outperform a single shuttle system by at least 40% to justify its cost [18]. But the expense of it is still too high to implement [19].…”

This study proposes a new design of an Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) using wireless communication. The highlight of this project is to aid and improve existing warehouse management system (WMS) that occupies manpower, on-paper data recording and non-intelligent machines during the operation. The essence of this project is to implement wireless technology in controlling ASRS system. Microcontroller and other electronics modules give designer the capability to control movement and rotation of the motor while PIC16F877A programming aid the ASRS movement based on its condition and position of each of the parts that move. The communication between PIC controller and computer is made by a wireless technology. The motion of the system is based on three DC motors, one for each direction of motion X, Y and Z, controlled through PIC microcontroller. The experiment with the prototype shows the success in placing the object to the right destination as requested by the user within shorter time which reveals the success of this study. This automated system is highly demanded in large factories such as automotive factories and mass production companies to aid inventory management system in the warehouse and huge storage area due to the time consumption and dramatic cost reduction factors.
