An investigation of mean energy demand, performance and reference cycles for stacker cranes



Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS-RS) are commonly used in intralogistic facilities and are often operated by stacker cranes. These
stacker cranes are used in high-bay warehouses to move small load
carriers, pallets and special load carriers. This paper presents an
approach for the determination of the mean energy demand of stacker
cranes, using a reference cycle. The examanition of the reference cycles is based on a large scale simulation experiment with randomly generated stacker crane and rack configurations and operation tasks. The results permitted an analysis of the correlations between various paramters e.g. energy demand and performance of stacker cranes. Subsequently, three different reference cycles which allow an easy and fast calculation of the mean energy demand are developed and eveluated.

Host city and venue - Vienna

Vienna (Wien) is the federal capital and largest city of Austria, and one of the nine states of Austria. Vienna is Austria's primate city, with a population of about 1.9 million (2.6 million within the metropolitan area, nearly one third of Austria's population), and its cultural, economic, and political centre. It is the 7th-largest city by population within city limits in the European Union.  Read more...
