Automated storage - OHRA racking systems Stacker cranes and warehouse management software

Semi-automatic warehouse

The semi-automatic warehouse is so named because the warehouse personnel work with the storage and retrieval machine for certain tasks and processes, such as order picking.

The SRM moves automatically to the racking position determined by the operator in advance. The precise positioning in front of the racking position is fully automatic, while the on- and offloading of e.g. wooden boards is controlled by the operator over a manual command. This is also the case for the raising and lowering of loads and for the direction of movement of the forks.

Fully automatic order picking warehouse

Storage and retrieval, picking and provision of the order-related packages are fully automated. This not only increases the efficiency of the entire storage and order picking process, but also enables a high area utilisation and reduces damage to the goods. The concept of using the advantages of two-stage picking is completely new: A storage and retrieval machine (SRM) handles the storage and retrieval of packages in the warehouse. If a shipping order requires the picking of different individual sheets, a vacuum manipulator has the corresponding articles ready for shipping, whereby several orders can be processed in parallel. Thus, two separate systems put the orders together very efficiently in the smallest of spaces.

Stacker cranes

A stacker crane is a rail-guided vehicle for handling goods in an automatic racking system. The maximum height of a stacker crane is 46 metres. Depending on the stored goods, weight and dimensions, a distinction is made between different types of stacker cranes. Three of them are described below:

OHRA two-mast stacker crane for long goods and heavy products

With a load-bearing capacity of up to 8 tons, the device from this model range is particularly useful when handling heavy and large-volume goods in high-rise racks is required. This is particularly the case in the building materials, timber, slab or paper-processing industries. Thus, economic storage is possible with a small footprint. Using the “man at the goods” principle, the manual standard devices with standard platforms can be used for direct order-picking at the rack.

OHRA stacker cranes for long goods – your benefits

• Particularly suited for long goods
• Bearing loads of up to 8,000 kg
• Device can be delivered with a platform for manual order-picking
• Curve-operation - handling of several aisles possible

OHRA stacker crane for storage heights of up to 12 m

For automatic storage of Euro pallets and pallet cages in storage heights of up to 12 metres, OHRA provides a special stacker crane model as a true alternative of VNA trucks. The device can be curve-operated, is favourably priced and is based on a modular concept. Its special chassis also allows for direct driving on the hall floor.

OHRA stacker cranes for storage heights of up to 12 m – your benefits

• Particularly suited for order-picking warehouses or automated buffer warehouses
• Building height of up to 12 m
• Alternative for very narrow aisle warehouses
• Curve-operation - handling of several aisles possible

Warehouse management software

The entire material flow of a warehouse or a production facility can be controlled fully automatically. Our strengths are especially in scenarios with new products, where the goal is to adjust the logistics system to your existing organisation structure, not the other way around(!). The basis for this is an initial analysis of the actual situation and a jointly deduced future forecast. Based on the data collected on item turnover and company structure, we will develop solution concepts together with your employees. These will later be used as a specification book for automated storage.

OHRA warehouse management software - digital automation

The WMS is a comprehensive and optionally configurable standard system. You can achieve fast and lasting cost savings through optimum deployment of employees and technical system and simultaneous improvement of the process quality and reduction of the storage volume.
