Storage Tower
Function: The storage tower from 3defacto is a professional solution for storing pipes. The individual storage of pipes is the decisive advantage of the storage tower. Each pipe can be stored and retrieved at any time.
Storage: The pipe is conveyed into the center of the storage tower by the transport system. The lifting system picks up the pipe and moves it vertically upwards. The software assigns the pipe a storage location in one of the drawers. This drawer moves horizontally to the storage position of the pipe. After the pipe has been deposited, the drawer retracts, allowing the next pipe to be loaded.
Organizational system: Each storage location is assigned to a pipe. This means that tubes can be stored and retrieved as required.
Retrieval: Pipes are retrieved in the reverse order to storage.
Outstanding features:
- Optimum warehouse management: Each pipe has its own storage location within the storage tower.
- Direct access and availability: Every pipe size can be called up immediately
- Flexible handling: Process-independent loading and unloading of the storage tower is possible
- Capacity optimization: Minimum space requirement with maximum capacity
