AS/RS Buffer Systems


For postal service centers requiring short-term buffering of tray mail, FKI Logistex provides a variety of automated storage and retrieval (AS/RS) buffer systems for both unit and mini loads. Integrated into an existing facility or built with a new facility design, FKI Logistex AS/RS postal buffer systems include mini-load storage and retrieval systems and automated horizontal carousels.

FKI Logistex mini-load cranes conserve expensive floor space by using vertical space to store mail trays or tubs, reducing the cost of space needed for storage while offering all of the benefits of automation. Working with trays or tubs, an FKI Logistex mini-load storage solution enables higher throughputs and space utilization, as well as increased mail handling accuracy and control. Fully automated FKI Logistex AS/RS solutions allow 24/7/365 operation, providing improved productivity with substantially reduced downtime and manpower requirements.

FKI Logistex automated horizontal carousels are another alternative for AS/RS buffer storage for postal service customers. FKI Logistex horizontal carousels consist of a series of linked bins mounted on an oval track, and they enable a relatively large amount of mail to be directed to an automated material handling device at one or more fixed locations. When activated, the bins in a horizontal carousel rotate to bring the required trays to the automated picker, allowing retrieval of the items from the bins by the picking device.
