The of Rack with Modularized Cell considering Heterogeneous Unit Load Size in AS/RS

자동창고 Effectiveness 시스템에서 크기가 다른 저장단위를 고려한 모듈화 셀을 갖는 랙의 효과

In general, under the concept of unit load, Automated Storage/Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) have the rack of equal sized cells. However, they are inadequate and inefficient meeting the various sizes of customers' demands in today's business environment. Higher utilization and flexibility of warehouse storage can be achieved by using AS/RS with tile rack of modularized cell. In this paper, the model of AS/RS with the rack of modularized cell is proposed, and the effectiveness of proposed model is presented by way of numerical examples. The model developed in this research, as one type of AS/RS that is more flexible to the size and has higher space utilization than those of existing rack structure, could every useful for the storage of heterogeneous unit load sizes.
