TransferTower®automated storage system
The system consists of 2 to 4 TwinTower® automated storage systems connected with a transfer station that enables the transport of shelves between the columns. The transfer station moves at the top section of the system and the shelves are delivered to it by a moving elevator that works between the storage columns. The connection of the towers with a transfer station enables the access to all goods through all loading-unloading stations. The TwinTower® systems can be placed in series to the longer or shorter side of the shelf. The system allows to store different kind of goods like – profiles, bars, rods, or pipes.
