Abstract

Automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) is one of the major material handling systems, which is widely used in storage centers and automated production environments. This system had been utilized not only as alternatives to traditional warehouses but also as a part of advanced manufacturing systems. This project discusses about the ASRS system which focusing on the racking system of ASRS. Some problems and matters can be identified by doing research of the available ASRS in the market, the racking system and the principle operation of the ASRS. Currently, the design of the automated storage and retrieval is fixed which cannot be adapted in different type or size of the storage. Some initiative need to be done to overcome this matter in enhancing the technology of ASRS in manufacturing industry. The work starts with the investigation of the current design of automated storage and retrieval system in automated industry. The research of the design of ASRS investigated through some journals, articles, and books. Besides, the proposal of the modular automated storage and retrieval systems design will be discussed in this report. The modular ASRS focused on the rack of the ASRS which can adapt with the variety size of loads. ASRS rack with the modular concept will be designed by using CAD software. The analysis of the design will be tested by applying force in order to ensure the design is safe to be fabricated. The reliability test will be conducted to ensure the design is satisfy with the last objective in this report. The test will be analyzed by using different size of loads. With the modular of the automated storage and retrieval systems, storing and retrieving process will be enhanced within the manufacturing industry.
