TOPICS • Managing the Storage Resource • Considerations of Material Handling • Equipment Options • Summary
MANAGEING THE STROAGE RESOURCE • Handling Requirements • Storage Requirements (Planned and Extended)
CONSIDERATIONS OF MATERIAL HANDLING • Standardization • Continuous Product Flow • Investment in handling rather than stationary equipment • Maximum Utilization • Minimization of deadweight to payload • Exploitation of gravity
EQUIPMENT OPTIONS • The basic equipment types: the fork lift, the conveyer the cranes • MECHANIZED SYSTEMS: Fork lift trucks and related equipment pg. 423., • SEMIAUTOMATED HANDLING: (AGVS) Automated Guided Vehicle Systems, Sortations, Robotics, Live racks • AUTOMATED HANDLING: ASRS (Automatic Storage and Retrieval System): Basic components of ASRS ( Storage Racks, Storage and retrieval equipment, input/out put systems, and control. • SUMMARY
