Comprehensive Automated Intralogistics System

 

Stacker cranes are machines designed for the Automated Storage of Pallets. They can travel along the aisles in the warehouse, carrying out the storage, placement and retrieval of goods. Nanjing Huaruide’s stacker cranes have proven their efficiency in sectors as diverse as the food industry, the car industry, pharmaceuticals, spare parts, metallurgy, chemicals and e-commerce.

 

In order to moves the loads in the warehouse, our stacker crane can carry out three types of movenments:

Down-aisle: Moving along the aisle on a rail

Vertical: Up and down along the mast of stacker crane

Cross-aisle: Accorss the depth of the racks, performed by the extraction systems futted to the cradle of the achine in order extract or position a pallet

Parameters

Stacker Crane (Stacker Retrieval Machine ) Control System

SIEMENS S7-300 series programmable logic controller, Schneider TE ATV series converter and detection, control elements to accomplish all kinds of movements of the stacker.

Controller

Using the German SIEMENS S7-300 series PLC and its input / output / communication module, the main engine adopts CPU313/314

Control Mode

Maintenance：The operator log in, through HMI touch screen click-to-action menu, control the crane advance and retreat, go up and down, stretch and draw back movement of the fork.  At the moment, the working state of the stacker crane is the jog running mode, its running, stop, speed switching is entirely controlled by the operator. This mode is usually used when equipment is under commissioning or maintenance.

 

Manual：The operator log in, through HMI touch screen click-to-action menu, control the crane advance and retreat, go up and down, stretch and draw back movement of the fork.  At the moment, the working state of the stacker crane is semi-automatic mode, this said, three dimensional movement by manual, but automatically positioning and stop accurately.

 

Stand-alone automation：The operator log in, through HMI touch screen click-to-action menu (or action menu at on-floor operation menu), input operate command(multi commands can be input each time), stacker crane back to original position after accomplishing the task, wait for the next command.

 

On-line automation：Stacker Crane receive operating command from host computer though infrared communicator, accomplish the task, back to original position and waiting for the next command. The processing procedure and accomplish situation real-time feedback to host computer.

 

Positioning Mode

Our Stacker Crane generally uses optoelectronic detection and positioning in the horizontal and vertical direction. Now mainly adopt more advanced rotary encoders, laser rangefinder or barcode and scanner to realize close loop speed adjustment and accurate positioning. The fork telescopic direction is located close to the switch position.

 

Add-ons

Shuttle Cart

Shuttle cart powered by sliding trolley transport the pallets to the most convenient position for stacker crane loading and unloading.

Sorting Transfer Vehicle (STV) / Ferry Car

Rail-guided vehicle system connects ground conveyors to AS/RS in/out conveyors.

End-of-aisle Conveyors

Conveyors automatically transport pallets to and from load/unload stations.End-of-aisle conveyors can also transport pallets to/from STVs.

Rack-side Gravity Conveyors

Gravity buffer conveyors installed on ASRS racking side to allow case picking and forklift access.

Remote Monitoring

The camera on stacker crane allows a maintenance worker to check load status in remote, ensure recovery operations faster and safer.

Maintenance cabin

Maintenance cabin on the stacker crane for maintenance and recovery work especially in high-rise warehouse.
