AutoStore Controller
The Command Center of Your Warehouse Efficiency
The AutoStore Controller is the brain of the AutoStore system, responsible for orchestrating the entire operation. It knows the location of every bin, robot, and port within the Grid, ensuring seamless and efficient warehouse management.
Key Features
Designed to optimize performance, the Controller processes order intake, assigns tasks, and manages the movement of robots, all while maintaining real-time data tracking and diagnostics.
Centralized Command Center
The Controller integrates seamlessly with our warehouse control system (LogiCS) to streamline order processing and robot task allocation. By leveraging the AutoStore software platform Router, it continuously calculates and recalculates the most efficient paths for robots, ensuring optimal performance and reducing the need for advanced planning.
Real-Time Traffic Control
Much like an air traffic controller, the AutoStore Controller dynamically manages the movement of robots. It adjusts paths in real-time to avoid traffic jams and ensures efficient bin retrieval and delivery. This capability is essential for maintaining high throughput and minimizing delays.
High Uptime and Reliability
The Controller is designed to maintain system stability and uptime, achieving an impressive 99.7% uptime. It continuously logs bin and robot positions, conducts diagnostic troubleshooting with the XHandler software, and isolates issues without halting the entire system. This ensures that your warehouse operations run smoothly with minimal interruptions.
Enhanced Robot Efficiency with Router
Router, a component of the Controller, utilizes sophisticated algorithms to enhance robot efficiency by up to 40%. It adapts to operational changes, such as new orders or cancellations, and ensures that robots follow the most efficient routes. This dynamic adjustment helps maintain an optimized order flow and maximizes the capacity of the robots.
Seamless Integration
The Controller provides advanced access control for service personnel and integrates with existing infrastructure through a network connection, network switch, and Controller PC. This modular setup simplifies the planning and scheduling of tasks, making it easier to manage and scale your AutoStore system.
