STOROJET RO70 storage robots are the size of a conventional mowing robot for domestic use but have far more power. Even in the development phase, the primary goal was to create a system that was as energy-efficient as possible. It was always important to find a good ratio between the lowest possible dead weight and the highest possible towing performance. Thanks to the latest LiFePo batteries and optimised weight, this goal was achieved in every respect.
The STOROJET storage robots move completely freely and are not rail-bound. They navigate autonomously using barcodes that are distributed throughout the shelving system. Thanks to their high fault tolerance, they can always find their way to their next location.
Picking performance increased by between 30 and 80 percent
The work steps of the individual storage robots are manipulated by the central system using Wi-Fi. The upcoming picking list is automatically sent in advance to all required storage robots. They navigate completely autonomously to the respective position of the product carriers and dock themselves to them. Having picked up the product carrier, they steer back to the next elevator by the shortest route and line up at hip height at the assigned picking station. The goods to be unloaded are lit by pick-by-light in the respective compartment of the product carrier and only need to be unloaded. After removal, the barcode is scanned by the picker, checked for correctness by the system, automatically booked out and then packaged.
