Storage principle and operation process of shuttle shelves Shuttle shelves follow the core principle of "intensive storage+automated handling", and the operation process is divided into three steps: warehousing, storage, and outbound. When entering the warehouse, the forklift transports the pallet goods to the "mother car" at the entrance of the shelf (or directly places them on the shuttle car), and the management system issues the warehousing instruction. The shuttle car travels along the track to the designated location and accurately places the goods; During the storage phase, the shuttle can adjust the position of goods according to instructions and support "first in, first out" or "first in, last out" modes to meet different turnover needs; When leaving the warehouse, the management system schedules shuttle cars to transport the target goods from the storage location to the shelf entrance according to the order requirements, and then transfers them to the outbound area by forklifts. Throughout the entire process, forklifts only need to operate at both ends of the shelves without entering the aisle, avoiding the occupation of space by forklift passages in traditional shelves. At the same time, the automation operation of shuttle cars reduces manual intervention, lowers operational errors and labor intensity.
