ASRS (Automated Storage and Retrieval System) is a highly efficient and automated material handling solution for warehouses and distribution centers. It is a type of inventory management system that utilizes computer-controlled systems to automatically store and retrieve items from designated storage locations. ASRS systems can be categorized into several types based on their design, such as crane-based systems, shuttle-based systems, and robotic systems. Additionally, ASRS systems can be further classified based on their application, including unit-load ASRS, mini-load ASRS, and carousels.
ASRS systems provide significant benefits to warehouse operations, including increased storage density, improved inventory accuracy, and reduced labor costs. By implementing an ASRS system, businesses can improve their operational efficiency and competitiveness in today's fast-paced market.
