Automation specialist KNAPP will be presenting its universal shuttle concept on Stand 45. Intended to minimise the number of different technologies in the warehouse, this concept uses a shuttle unit as the universal handling device. Benefits include a manageable number of components, high reliability, a shorter start-up phase, lower maintenance costs and total system scalability.

Central to the shuttle concept is KNAPP's OSR (order, storage & retrieval) system, which combines a shuttle-based automatic store with pick-to-light stations. The OSR range is continually expanding, with OSR 15, 32 and 50 models now available (handling up to 15, 32 or 50kg), double-deep configurations possible and a new, twin-lift version soon to be available.
