tion of the pallets in the channels so that the
Pallet Shuttle is correctly placed underneath
to move them.
The Wi-Fi control tablet
Each tablet can operate any shuttle in the installation via Wi-Fi and through a very intuitive software that does not require specific
training of the operators.
With tablets, operators can run many applications and functions, such as selecting the
number of pallets to be extracted, taking an
inventory of the number of pallets available,
choosing the strategy (set the LIFO or FIFO
method) and managing users and authorized
personnel.

Greater flexibility in operations
In the Marvimundo warehouse, a lot of
picking is performed. That is why a specific area for this operation was set up on
one side.
The Pallet Shuttle system, among high-density systems, is the best suited to the features of the Marvimundo installation since it
allows the quick placement and extraction
of pallets in order to send them to the order
preparation area.
Its operation is very simple and requires
minimal labor: operators assisted by reach
trucks place the motorized shuttle into the
channel, deposit the pallets in the first position of the racks and the Pallet Shuttle transfers them directly to the next free location
autonomously.
To remove the goods, the same operation is
performed in reverse order.
Maximum system safety
The shuttle is equipped with various electronic and mechanical components to ensure proper operation and that the movement within the lanes occurs with the
utmost safety.
It is also fitted with a bumper that pre-
vents any trapping and crushing; emergen-
cy stops that cut power if necessary, as well
as a locking system that improves contact
of the shuttle with the forks of the forklift
and eliminates the risk of falling. There are
also ultrasonic sensors that locate the posi-
while the Pallet Shuttle continues to work
within the channels.
Batteries extracted from the shuttles are
connected by simply fitting them into the
charging stations set up in the warehouse.
In addition, in the charging stations, there
is also a separate cable that lets you charge
the shuttle directly, without removing
the battery.
