It's pointless installing a system this small. Your pick rate will be lower than static shelving because the shuttles can't deliver totes to the operator fast enough. Also, the density enhancements mean very little when the volumetric cost of the system is so much higher than static shelving. With only 8,500 skus it would have been cheaper and more labour efficient to just add more steel shelving.

True, I first ran a 140 robot and now an 85 robot autostore which allows them to wait in line besides each port, rapidly dropping and reclaiming the totes as the order is picked through. Without this capability, pick rate is not one of the present advantages
