The Remstar automated tool drawer carousel can store the equivalent of 66 tool drawer cabinets in just 56% of the floor space, allowing tool and mould operations to expand internally. The Remstar automated tool drawer carousel consists of an oval track with rotating bins (sections of shelving) containing shelves and RemStore totes that deliver stored items to the operator. Using Remstar horizontal carousels in combination with RemStore totes provides maximum density tool storage in a fraction of the space. Using an average storage location size of 4" x 4", the Remstar automated tool drawer carousel can provide over 23,000 storage locations.
One carousel can be used independently or groups of two or more creates a workstation pod. This allows an operator to pick from one active automated tool drawer carousel while the others are pre-positioning to be picked the moment the operator is ready. Production schedules are often tight in tool and mould operations and searching for the stored material is costly and prohibitive.
All Remstar automated tool drawer carousels can be integrated with one of many QuickPick pick-to-light technologies.
