Automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRSs) are used for loading and retrievaling products in the companies' warehouses. A variety of automated storage and retrieval vehicles are used in different storage layouts in ASRSs. The loading and retrievaling process is usually performed with aisle robots (ARs) and shuttle robots (SRs) at these systems. While the placement and retrievaling of products on/from the shelves, the operator intervention is minimized. In this paper, a literature overview has been given about ASRSs' types, applied various storage installations and solutions and optimization studies used while loading and retrievaling products.

Otomatik Depolama ve Boşaltma Sistemleri (ODBS): Depo Kurulumu ve Performans Çalışmaları Üzerine Araştırma

Öz

Otomatik depolama ve boşaltma sistemleri (ODBS) firmalardaki ürünlerin depo içerisinde depolanması ve boşaltılması için kullanılan sistemlerdir. ODBS'lerde farklı depo yerleşimlerinde çeşitli otomatik depolama ve boşaltma araçları kullanılmaktadır. Bu sistemlerde yükleme ve ürün toplama işlemi genellikle kullanılan koridor robotları (KR) ve taşıyıcı robotları (TR) ile gerçekleştirilmektedir. Ürünlerin depo içerisindeki raflara yerleştirilmesinde ve toplanmasında operatör müdahalesi minimum seviyededir. Bu çalışmada ODBS'lerin tipleri, uygulanan değişik depo kurulumları ve çözümleri, ürünlerin toplanması ve yüklenmesi esnasında kullanılan optimizasyon çalışmaları hakkında yapılmış yayınlardan bir derleme yapılmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Otomatik depolama ve boşaltma sistemleri, Depo kurulumu, ASRS, Ürün toplama, Optimizasyon.
