Warehouse technology
In modern warehouse systems, countless movements take place simultaneously. Shuttles, storage and retrieval machines, and lifting modules must operate quickly, precisely, and reliably over the long term. Precise gear components and drives that can be flexibly adapted to different requirements are crucial. Framo Morat offers the right drive solution for each of these movements – from belt drives and rack and pinion systems in shuttle units to actuators for the safe control of entire high-bay racks. This enables us to create the basis for high-performance and fail-safe warehouse systems.
Belt drive for telescopic grapple
In automated storage systems, telescopic grippers are used to precisely pick up and place containers on shuttles. The belt drive, based on the standardized NG250, ensures reliable movement and enables safe transfer even under high loads. Thanks to its robust design, the drive is ideal for dynamic applications in 24/7 operation.
Advantages at a glance:
- NG250 bearing system for the safe absorption of high radial forces
- Standardized modular system with fast implementation and many transmission options
- Robust, durable solution for continuous use in telescopic units
Rack and pinion systems for greater reach and safe handling
In automated shuttle systems, rack and pinion systems are indispensable for moving load handling devices safely and precisely in a horizontal direction. Form-fit power transmission ensures reliable operation, while the rigid structure enables a greater range. This allows pallets and goods to be efficiently stored and retrieved in high-bay warehouses.
Advantages at a glance:
- Precise catalog systems for high flexibility in design
- High accuracy with a particularly robust design
- Reliable power transmission even with large loads and ranges
Actuators for the safe operation of entire high-bay warehouses
- Compact actuators with plug-and-play integration into various storage systems
- High power density for short-term extreme torques
- Increased protection and operational safety in automated high-bay warehouses
Rack and pinion systems for vertical handling systems and warehouse lifts
Applications in high-bay warehouses and warehouse lifts require drive solutions that can lift heavy loads safely and position them precisely. The rack and pinion drive meets these requirements by converting the rotational movement of the gear directly into linear movement. The load-bearing device is guided precisely vertically along the rack, enabling fast, efficient storage and retrieval across multiple levels.
Advantages at a glance:
- High load capacity for reliable transport of even heavy loads at high lifting heights
- Precise guidance for smooth movement and accurate positioning of the load-bearing equipment
- Robust construction for durability and resistance to dirt and wear
