Stacker cranes

The stacker crane is a special three-axis robot used in automated warehouses. It
consists of a rail-truck that moves on rails between two rows of shelving with the
size of very narrow corridor. On that there is the body taken which usually consists
of two telescopic forks.

The stacker cranes can reach heights of 45 meters, with speeds up to 240 meters
per minute, ensuring millimetric accuracy in pick or drop phase. In the longitudinal
direction the corridor can reach lengths of 200 meters.

These results are made possible by increasingly precise mechanical and by
an on board electonical command that does the real-time control.

The stacker cranes can be:

• single column
• double column

Structurally differ depending on the load that must be carried, both in terms of weight
sizes.

The stacker cranes used for handling light goods are called “miniload”.
