3D Pallet Shuttle solution

A pallet shuttle system is an efficient and fully automated solution for pallet handling in a warehouse. The solution uses self-driving shuttles to transport pallets in and out of the storage system.

When a system is designed, it is based on a logistics analysis. The purpose of the analysis is to improve logistics processes and optimize the supply chain.

Warehouse space is utilized optimally at Alfix

Alfix, with their pallet shuttle solution, has achieved very efficient utilization of each cubic meter in their pallet warehouse – even in height. They store large quantities of goods with fast in and out pallet handling.

There is no manual handling of pallets in the cube solution, so the staff can focus on more value-adding tasks.

When pallets are retrieved, they are either sent to picking and packing, or alternatively, they are directly transported for shipping.

The shuttle solution is the optimal Goods-to-man solution.

  • The pallets are automatically positioned to the locations
  • The pallets are brought to the operator automatically
  • Good ergonomics and limited physical strain
  • Monotonous work processes are significantly reduced
  • The risk of workplace accidents is significantly reduced
  • Warehouse operators can create added value through other value-creating tasks
  • By reducing monotonous manual processes, the wear and tear on staff is reduced

Few requirements for the building with a shuttle solution

  • There are no requirements for the building’s interior height
  • There are minimal requirements for the floor’s flatness
  • The cube solution can be built around corners, columns, posts, etc.
  • The length of the aisles can vary depending on the building, product range, etc.
  • Each cubic meter can be maximally utilized compared to other solutions
  • The shuttle solution is often suitable for implementation in existing buildings

Good features of the shuttle solution

  • The system can operate 24/7 – 365 days a year
  • Picking times are significantly reduced
  • Shorter delivery times in the warehouse due to higher efficiency
  • The shuttles have limited energy consumption compared to other solutions
  • Lower service and maintenance costs than other solutions
  • Scalable in existing rack configurations, as shuttles can be added
  • The shuttle system can operate while expanding the scope of static capacity
  • The shuttles have a limited replacement cost compared to other solutions

Pallet system at Copenhagen Airport

Zolvo has designed and built an automatic pallet system for Copenhagen Airport’s goods reception, which receives goods for the airport’s commercial operations.

The pallets run on conveyor belts, and the system takes into account that all the special safety measures at the airport are adhered to.
