Korkeavarastointijärjestelmien

Korkeavarastoi, often translated as "high storage" or "tall warehouse," refers to a type of automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS). These systems are characterized by their significant vertical dimension, utilizing very high racks to maximize storage density within a given footprint. The primary purpose of a korkeavarastoi is to efficiently store and retrieve large quantities of goods, typically in industrial or logistical settings.

The operation of a korkeavarastoi involves specialized machines, such as stacker cranes or automated guided vehicles (AGVs), that move horizontally and vertically along defined pathways within the storage structure. These machines are responsible for placing items into and removing them from designated storage locations. Computerized control systems manage inventory, direct the movement of automated equipment, and optimize storage and retrieval operations.

Korkeavarastoi systems are designed to improve space utilization, reduce labor costs associated with manual handling, and increase throughput. They are particularly beneficial for companies dealing with a high volume of items, needing precise inventory control, or operating in areas with limited horizontal space. The height of these systems can range from several meters to over 50 meters, depending on the specific application and available building structure. Implementation requires careful planning, considering factors like product size and weight, desired storage capacity, and integration with existing warehouse processes.
