Development of an Orthogonal Transfer System for the Automated Warehouse Industry
摘要
The exponential increase in e-commerce and the demands of consumers, who demand delivery speed, present a huge challenge to the intralogistics industry. In this sense, intralogistics is an area that has been the subject of study and development for the companies to remain competitive in the global market. This work aims to develop an orthogonal transfer for the automated warehouse industry. The equipment is intended to be integrated into a roller conveyor line for transporting small boxes and its purpose is to distribute and organize logistics within warehouses. The equipment was designed to ensure that the solution found meets the specifications. Cost analysis and construction of a prototype are also addressed. The designed equipment is capable of operating 24 h a day at a rate of more than 30 units/min.
