Automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) basics
Automated storage and retrieval systems—often simply called AS/RS—are computer-controlled systems for storing and retrieving products in warehouses or manufacturing facilities without manual labor. Large systems, known as unit-load AS/RS, typically store and retrieve pallet loads. Smaller systems, often called mini-load AS/RS, handle products in totes, trays or cartons.
