Improvement of storage system upright piano cabinet using class based storage

S.L. Alfarokhi, Qurtubi Qurtubi, Suci Miranda · IOP Conference Series Materials Science and Engineering · 2019

Abstract The objective of this research is to reduce the process distance on storage and retrieval (S/R) by suggesting storage system of piano’s cabinets (piano’s parts) on the certain storage shelf. The object of the research is department of setting cabinet that obligated to bridge and organize cabinet’s supply from department of painting to department of assembly. Based on the planning and actual delivery of piano cabinets to department of assembly, it is found that only 33,3% deliveries were accomplished as recorded by data on April 2018. One of the causes is internal handling problem at the department of cabinet setting that takes longer time due to unorganized cabinet storage. After all data of “in-out stock” are resumed, later it will be processed by employing class-based storage method for material’s grouping. The data indicated that cabinet with material class A is dominated by top 4 requested models of piano and the comparison between initial storage system layout and the proposed one shows the difference on total distance of retrieval activities for 210 kilometers during 5 months of working. It could be concluded that the purpose of storage system could reduce the retrieval distance by 68%.

Warehouse Design under Class-Based Storage Policy of Shuttle-Based Storage and Retrieval System

Banu Y. Ekren, Zaki Sari, Tone Lerher · IFAC-PapersOnLine · 2015

In this study, we aim to find out the best rack design for shuttle-based storage and retrieval system (SBS/RS) under class-based storage policy (CSP). SBS/RS is a new technology in automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) which is developed for high transaction environments where mini-load AS/RS crane may not be able to keep pace with the transaction rate needed over a given number of storage locations. We consider several rack design concepts in terms of number of aisles, tiers and bays in the warehouse. The performance of the system is evaluated in terms of utilizations of lifts and storage/retrieval devices and cycle times of storage/retrieval transactions. We utilize simulation for the modeling purpose. The results indicate that CSP works better under high rise warehouse design. So, this may create less number of lifts requirement in the system. Hence, the warehouse design with CSP may tend to have lower investment cost. By this study, we also aim to provide practitioners and academia a significant insight for SBS/RS design under several rack design concepts for CSP.

Optimal Two-Class-Based Storage in a Live-Cube Compact Storage System

Nima Zaerpour, Yeh‐Wei Yu, M.B.M. deKoster · John Spoor Broome Library Institutional Repository (California State University) · 2016

Live-cube compact storage systems realize high storage space utilization and high throughput, due to full automation and independent movements of unit loads in three-dimensional space. Applying an optimal two-class-based storage policy where high-turnover products are stored at locations closer to the Input/Output point significantly reduces the response time. Live-cube systems are used in various sectors, such as warehouses and distribution centers, parking systems, and container yards. The system stores unit loads, such as pallets, cars, or containers, multi-deep at multiple levels of storage grids. Each unit load is located on its own shuttle. Shuttles move unit loads at each level in the <i>x</i> and <i>y</i> directions, with a lift taking care of the movement in the <i>z-</i>direction. Movement of a requested unit load to the lift location is comparable to solving a Sam Loyd's puzzle game where 15 numbered tiles move in a 4 × 4 grid. However, with multiple empty locations, a virtual aisle can be created to shorten the retrieval time for a requested unit load. In this article, we optimize the dimensions and zone boundary of a two-class live-cube compact storage system leading to a minimum response time. We propose a mixed-integer nonlinear model that consists of 36 sub-cases, each representing a specific configuration and first zone boundary. Properties of the optimal system are used to simplify the model without losing any optimality. The overall optimal solutions are then obtained by solving the remaining sub-cases. Although the solution procedure is tedious, we eventually obtain two sets of closed-form expressions for the optimal system dimensions and first zone boundary for any desired system size. In addition, we propose an algorithm to obtain the optimal first zone boundary for situations where the optimal system dimensions cannot be achieved. To test the effectiveness of optimal system dimensions and first zone boundary on the performance of a two-class-based live-cube system, we perform a sensitivity analysis by varying the ABC curve, system size, first zone size, and shape factor. The results show that for most cases an optimal two-class-based storage outperforms random storage, with up to 45% shorter expected retrieval time.

A Puzzle-Based Movable Rack system with class-based storage policy

Fede, Giulia · Duo Research Archive (University of Oslo) · 2023

Den nylige veksten i netthandel under COVID-19-pandemien har intensivert etterspørselen etter effektive lagerbygninger med høy lagringskapasitet og gjennomstrømning. Puzzle-baserte lagringsløsninger (PBS) har vist seg å være effektive for å optimalisere lagringskapasiteten med begrenset plass. For å ytterligere forbedre disse evnene, har Logistikk 4.0 Lab ved NTNU og selskapet Wheel.me introdusert et nytt system som bruker autonome hjul, slik at lagringshyller kan bevege seg i alle retninger. Denne innovative tilnærmingen har potensial til å betydelig forbedre gjennomstrømningskapasiteten.\nTidligere studier har hovedsakelig fokusert på å evaluere henteytelsen basert på faktorer som eskorteposisjoner, inngangs-/utgangspunkter og bevegelsesbegrensninger. Denne artikkelen har som mål å forbedre hentetiden ved å implementere en lagringspolitikk basert på to klasser.\nVed strategisk å plassere høyomsetningsvarer nær inngangs-/utgangspunktet, minimeres reiseavstander, noe som resulterer i raskere henting. For å evaluere effektiviteten til lagringssystemet basert på klasser, vurderes ulike inngangsparametere, inkludert ABC-kurven, systemstørrelse, formen til klasse A og formforholdet. Målet er å undersøke hvordan det optimaliserte systemet med en lagringspolitikk basert på klasser påvirker ytelsen til den nye konfigurasjonen. Funnene avslører betydelige reduksjoner i syklustid, med forbedringer på opptil 150 % sammenlignet med tilfeldig lagring, avhengig av den spesifikke systemkonfigurasjonen og egenskapene til de lagrede elementene.

Surya Aditya, Said Salim Dahda · Jurnal Teknologi Terapan G-Tech · 2025

This research aims to make the process of picking goods according to their type easier, so that the distance of transporting materials is shorter than the previous distance. FSN Analysis classifies goods based on the frequency of demand, and Class Based Storage groups goods based on their category (FSN) and places them in strategic locations in the warehouse. In this research, changes to the warehouse layout were made manually based on the results of the FSN analysis and the application of the Class Based Storage method. The results of the FSN Analysis are 7 types of Fast moving category goods, 6 types of Slow moving category goods, and 2 types of Non-moving category goods. FSN analysis is made by sorting all frequencies of goods from the highest value, as well as cumulative calculations and frequency percentages. By comparing the initial layout with the proposed layout, data processing results in a total decrease from IDR 6.558.992,00/ month to IDR 3.825.480,00/ month, or 41,7% more efficient by using the proposed layout based on the Class Based Storage method and FSN Analysis reduce moment material handling 42%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the problem of storing goods in PT XY's warehouse will be solved if using a storage optimization policy that uses the Class Based Storage method and FSN Analysis as a review and reference material in arranging future storage layouts.

A heuristic approach to warehouse layout with class-based storage

Travis Larson, HEATHER MARCH, Andrew Kusiak · IIE Transactions · 1997

Abstract This paper presents a procedure for warehouse layout. It employs the principles of class-based storage to increase floor space utilization and decrease material handling. Three phases of the procedure are outlined: (1) determination of aisle layout and storage zone dimensions, (2) assignment of material to a storage medium, and (3) allocation of floor space. An industrial case study illustrates the procedure for a warehouse required to store 739 different products totaling more than 10000 pallets of material. An improved layout was developed and compared with the existing alternative. The proposed layout offered savings of more than 20 000 square feet of floor space and an approximately 45% reduction in material handling distance.
