Four-way shuttle system: smart density and throughput
The four-way shuttle system is a smart storage solution in which the carts travel in all directions and can change direction at any point in the racking, enabling the cooperative operation of multiple shuttles on the same level with smart dispatching and route planning.
How does the four-way shuttle work?
Unlike a conventional shuttle, it moves both along and across the racking and changes direction automatically without intermediate lifts, maximizing warehouse performance. Its flexible design supports layouts that do not depend on the location of docks or access points.
Key features
Omnidirectional movement within the racking: higher performance and layout flexibility.
Cooperative operation of multiple shuttles with smart dispatching and route planning.
Advanced development and performance: over 70% of the equipment's components are developed in-house by the manufacturer, which ensures quality control and spare parts availability.
Smart, fast charging: charging time ≤ 2 hours, with 6-8 hours of runtime per full cycle.
Versions for ambient temperature and cold rooms, with automatic charging inside the warehouse itself.
