America Corporation, will feature a live demonstration of its DUOSYS Automated Storage & Retrieval System (AS/RS). This mini load AS/RS can act as a sortation system, buffering and sequencing items. Speed is ensured by two cranes functioning simultaneously in the same aisle to maximize throughput. The cranes operate independently, passing each other without interference to reach every rack position. Multiple cranes are managed by a single off-board controller. The DUOSYS remains in operation while maintenance is being performed on individual cranes. Multiple systems can be stacked on top of each other, providing scalability. Daifuku Webb

Swisslog's Click&Pick high-speed picking and selecting technology is specifically designed for e-commerce fulfillment. Orders can be filled up to five times faster than manual shelving systems, reaching 1,000 picks per selector per hour. With a ‘cubed-out' warehouse, a space reduction of 60 percent is possible compared to storing SKUs in static bin shelving. The system reduces warehouse noise and improves cleanliness. Work stations present bins to operators at the right position to eliminate unnecessary bending and stretching.Swisslog
