AFT manufactures rail-running, automated storage and retrieval systems using rotating forks
to access racking.
The SR/F provides low cost AS/RS automation for warehouses. No longer are designers and users constrained with low performance,
high operating
cost fork truck systems. Now using conventional beam pallet racks with aisles only 12 inches wider than the pallet diagonal, full automatic AS/RS
productivity is available at affordable cost.
SR/F installations are free standing in the warehouse building. Flexibility is a byword: if it is beneficial to rearrange
the warehouse layout, SR/F systems can be moved as easily as the pallet racks themselves. Also, the shelf arrangement can be changed at any time to accommodate
variations in the loads handled.
AFT provides PC based controls that keep the identity and location (inventory) of all the products in the racks. These
(End of Aisle Controllers) provide completely automated operation by themselves or can be interfaced to centralized warehouse computer systems.
AFT builds it's equipment in its own plant to the highest quality standards in the industry. We know of no component
in our product that could be improved by furnishing something different. No matter what the cost.
AFT gains its marketing advantage of lower cost due to its low overhead and single product: design, manufacture, and
installation of SR/F systems only.
