  • Efficiency: 24-hour continuous operation, error rate <0.1%

Product Description

Intelligent warehouse stacker crane (also known as intelligent stacker, automated warehouse stacker) is one of the core equipment of modern intelligent warehousing system. It is mainly for efficient storage, handling and stacking of goods in automated warehouses (AS/RS). Stacker crane achieves high-precision, high-speed and unmanned operation through technologies such as automated control, Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI), greatly improving storage efficiency and space utilization.

Types Of Warehouse Stacker Crane

Nucleon, as a professional warehouse stacker crane supplier, provides different types of warehouse stacker cranes, including single-column, double-column, bridge, and multi-deep stacker cranes. The following is a description and application introduction of different types of warehouse stacker cranes.

Single Column Stacker Crane

Single Column Stacker Crane

The single-column stacker crane features a single vertical mast that moves along the storage aisles, and forks suspended on one side, and rails laid on the floor. It is usually used for the storage and movement of light goods.

Double Column Stacker Crane

Double Column Stacker Crane

Double Column Stacker Crane With two independent vertical masts, it can handle heavier loads and reach greater heights. This type of stacker crane is commonly employed in warehouses with taller storage structures or when dealing with particularly heavy items.

Bridge Stacker Crane

Bridge Stacker Crane

The support rails of the bridge stacker crane are installed on the top of the shelf, and the whole machine is suspended in the air. It can efficiently move and retrieve goods. The bridge stacker crane effectively improves the space utilization rate.

Multi-Deep Stacker Crane

Multi-Deep Stacker Crane

These specialized stacker cranes can reach and retrieve loads from multiple storage positions within a single storage lane. It features a multi-level telescopic arm that traverses the front to access the rear cargo space.

Core Components of Warehouse Stacking Crane

Mechanical structure

  • Column/guide rail: Supports the vertical movement of stacker cranes.
  • Cargo platform: carries goods (pallets, boxes, etc.), equipped with forks or robotic arms.
  • Horizontal/vertical drive system: realizes X (horizontal), Y (vertical), and Z (fork extension) three-axis movement through motors and transmission devices.
  • Safety devices: anti-collision sensors, emergency stop buttons, limit switches, etc.

Control system

  • PLC/industrial computer: controls motion logic and path planning.
  • Servo motor: achieves precise positioning (millimeter error).
  • Barcode/RFID/visual recognition: automatically identifies goods and cargo locations.

Intelligent software

  • WMS (warehouse management system): coordinates inventory and task allocation.
  • Path optimization algorithm: dynamically plans the shortest access path (such as A* algorithm, genetic algorithm).
  • Digital twin: virtual simulation monitors equipment status.

Working Systems

  • Crane system: Crane positioning system, anti-sway system, human-machine interactive HMI, remote control, wireless network settings, background server and crane body control, etc.
  • Warehouse management system: WCS management and WMS management, code scanning device, warehouse management system software, video monitoring system, wireless and wired network system, production docking MES interface.
  • Warehouse area safety and warning system: safety management of the crane's working area, safety management of the ground sidewalk, safety management of the vehicle channel, indicator lights, alarms and safety isolation fences for various safety management, etc.

Technical Features

Automation and intelligence: Unmanned operation, automatic storage and retrieval through system instructions. AI predicts inventory demand and optimizes the placement of goods (such as high-frequency goods stored nearby).
High precision and high efficiency: The running speed can reach 4-5 m/s (horizontally) and 1-2 m/s (vertically). Positioning accuracy ±1mm, supporting dense warehousing.
Flexible adaptation: Can handle a variety of carriers such as pallets, bins, cartons, etc. Supports complex scenarios such as narrow aisles (VNA), double-deep positions, and multi-layer shuttles.
IoT integration: Real-time monitoring of equipment status (temperature, vibration, etc.) and predictive maintenance. Linked with AGV, conveyor lines, etc. to form a fully automated logistics chain.

Application of Intelligent Stacker Crane

Large manufacturing plants: In large manufacturing plants such as automobile manufacturing and electronic equipment production, intelligent warehouse stacker crane is to store and retrieve raw materials, parts and components, and finished products.

Cold chain logistics centers: Intelligent warehouse stacker cranes can operate efficiently in refrigerated or frozen environments and are used for safe storage and rapid retrieval of temperature-sensitive items such as food and medicine.

E-commerce distribution centers: Intelligent warehouse stacker cranes can quickly and accurately retrieve goods from high-density shelves, supporting efficient order picking and packaging processes.

Airport baggage handling system: Baggage handling systems use intelligent storage stacker cranes to automatically store and retrieve passengers' luggage.

Pharmaceutical warehousing and distribution: An Intelligent warehouse stacker crane can provide precise inventory control and batch management functions to ensure the traceability and safety of drugs throughout the supply chain.

Auto parts storage: Intelligent warehouse stacker crane can classify and store parts according to different specifications and retrieve parts quickly.
