The AutoStore™ system continuously optimizes the Bin delivery time by preparing Bins throughout the operation, making sure the time to complete an order is kept to a minimum.
AutoStore gets natural advantages from the Pareto principle where 20% of inventory is 80% of the turnover. Most requested Bins are found on the top due to this natural distribution of product requests, but even Bins found on the lowest level of the Grid (16th level) take only 3 minutes 36 seconds to retrieve - plus Robot transportation time to the Port. When digging for a bottom Bin, the system directs other robots to Bins available for picking to open Ports, ensuring maximized picking efficiency, performance, and no interruptions in the workflow.
