AS/RS
Technologies We Implement

An Automated Storage and Retrieval System includes several components working together to to optimize storage density, improve retrieval speed, and enhance overall warehouse productivity. PWD designs and installs AS/RS solutions tailored to your facility and load requirements. Goods-to-Person: This system brings items directly to a stationary worker, significantly reducing travel time and increasing picking efficiency.

Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs)

High-density, automated storage systems that deliver trays of inventory directly to an ergonomic workstation — optimizing a facility’s vertical space and increasing speed. Features a single delivery vehicle with a set amount of access points.

Choosing the Right AS/RS
for Your Load and Facility Type

The ideal AS/RS solution depends on your load profiles, facility layout, and operational needs.

By Load Type

Heavy/Unit Loads

Ideal solutions: Crane-based AS/RS, Unit Load AS/RS, Pallet Shuttle Systems.
Common in manufacturing and bulk distribution.

OPEX SureSort

Ideal solutions: Mini Load AS/RS, VLMs, Vertical Carousels.
Best for e-commerce, small parts storage, and high-frequency picking.

By Facility Type

Distribution Centers

Combine Unit Load AS/RS for bulk storage and Mini Load or Cube-Based AS/RS for order fulfillment.

Manufacturing Facilities

Use AS/RS for incoming raw materials, point of use, fixtures, and outbound goods. Integration with production lines is key.

Warehousing and 3PL

Maximize space and accessibility with a mix of Crane-based, Goods-to-Person, and Shuttle systems.

Choose Precision Warehouse Design Before AS/RS is Installed

Precision Warehouse Designs takes a comprehensive approach to designing and implementing Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS), ensuring solutions that are precisely tailored to your unique operational needs and built for long-term success.

Unbiased Vendor Selection

Unlike working directly with a single manufacturer, PWD provides objective consultation and system selection based on your unique requirements, ensuring the best-fit AS/RS solution from leading manufacturers selection and integrated with the appropriate complimentary equipment.

Holistic Warehouse Process Optimization

Our services extend far beyond simply installing an AS/RS. PWD conducts a thorough audit of your existing warehouse processes, including material flow, storage density, employee ergonomics, and the integration with current automation and material handling equipment like lift trucks. By evaluating your entire warehouse ecosystem, we design an AS/RS solution that not only automates storage and retrieval but also optimizes your entire warehouse operation for maximum efficiency, safety, and throughput.

Scalable and Future-Proof Solutions

PWD doesn’t just focus on your immediate needs; we design solutions for long-term scalability. Our team carefully considers your projected growth, evolving market demands, and potential technological advancements. By selecting scalable and adaptable AS/RS configurations and employing flexible software solutions, we ensure your investment continues to deliver optimal performance and value for years to come. Our expertise in project management and compliance further guarantees a smooth implementation and a future-ready automated warehouse.

Automate Material Handling by Speaking to an Engineer

Based in Dallas, Precision Warehouse Design strategically positions its sales representatives, project managers, and material handling engineers in key logistics and fulfillment centers nationwide. This national presence enables us to expertly install automated storage and retrieval systems for projects spanning the United States and Canada.
