Solutions: Automated Storage/Retrieval Systems (AS/RS)

Optimize space and efficiency with automated storage and retrieval systems

High-volume distribution centers need high-density pallet-based storage and retrieval systems for the best use of space and increased speed, accuracy and efficiency. Pallet-based AS/RS can also serve as the backbone of an automated reserve area in a fulfillment center.

FORTNA works with top manufacturers of pallet-based AS/RS, automated deep-lane pallet shuttle systems and robotic solutions to design scalable and modular operations that meet your business requirements.

High capacity, throughput and performance

Automated storage and retrieval systems are ideal for increasing operational performance without increasing your building footprint. Inventory accuracy and reduced shrinkage make these ideal solutions for high-volume inventory. The optimized flow of material and just-in-time replenishment eliminates unnecessary inventory, reducing your total cost. Today’s solutions also work well in ambient, chilled or freezer environments and are ideal for a variety of industry segments and applications for manufacturing and distribution.

Proof of concept and business case justification

Complex projects sometimes require a proof of concept (POC) to validate functionality and justify the business case before investing significant capital expense for the broader solution. At FORTNA, business case is at the heart of everything we do. We will help you develop the business case, align stakeholders and obtain the Board-level support you need for your investments.
