Do you want to know the comparison between four way shuttle and stacker cranes AS/RS?

In our opinion there is no absolute good or bad solution, only suitable one.

Factor 1: Applicable to different types of warehouses The four way shuttle is more suitable for warehouses under 25 meters and with a small ratio of length to width, and the warehouse with many columns, and Irregular warehouse, and cross-floor or cross-area warehouse.

Factor 2: Different expansion abilities The four way shuttle warehouse has more flexible expansion capabilities. First build Phase I warehouse, expand Phase II and Phase III warehouses is Easier, only need to add four way shuttles and not need to change the original layout. But stacker cranes AS/RS can't do it. If the warehouse's business volume increases, the quantity of four way shuttle can also be increased at any time to meet the customer's business changes.

Factor 3: Different equipment flexibility Stacker cranes AS/RS can only run on a fixed track, but four way shuttle can reach any storage location in the warehouse. If one stacker crane stops working, the goods beside cannot be stocked in and out. If one four way shuttle stops working,the system can send instructions to other four way shuttle, The warehouse can operate normally.

Factor 4: others The four way shuttle has low operating energy consumption. The four way shuttle delivery cycle is shorter, only 2-3 months.And so on. For more differences, welcome to join the disucssion.
