The shuttle racks is a type of storage shelf commonly used in warehouses and factories today, and it is a semi-automatic warehouse shelf. With the demand for storage needs, new types of intelligent storage shelves have emerged, such as AGV shelves. What are the differences between shuttle shelves and AGV shelves?
The shuttle rack is composed of a rack and a shuttle car. It needs a forklift to fork the goods to the shuttle car to realize automatic storage. The full name of AGV in English is Automated Guided Vehicle. AGV warehouse automation refers to the shelf used in conjunction with AGV. AGV forklifts are used to realize automatic storage and retrieval. The main difference from the shuttle rack is that the shuttle rack requires uniform specifications for the goods and a single category, while the AGV is generally used in combination with the pallet rack, and the pallet rack has no special requirements for the specifications of the goods.
Another difference is that the shuttle rack is a semi-automatic warehouse rack, and the AGV rack can realize fully automated operations. It can be seen that the shuttle rack and the AGV rack are mainly different in the requirements for the specifications of the stored goods and the different operating methods.
