Man less storage operation
Durch mannlose Nutzung des Lagers werden die hohen laufenden Personalkosten gesenkt. Der schnelle Zugriff des Flächenlagers vermeidet Wartezeiten an den nachfolgenden Maschinen und ein kontinuierlicher Arbeitsfluss entsteht.
High storage capacity
The concepts of the area storage systems stands for there height storage capacity. Almost the complete storage area can be used for storing board stacks up to 2 m height, only with small gaps in between the stacks. The storage system is able to feed automatically production machines, i. e. panel saws or CNC work centres. It can be used to buffer in between the production steps of simply as pure storage and consignment storage system.

Direct feeding of panel saws
The area storage system has can also be used for feeding a in the storage system integrated panel saw. In combination with a optional turning device on the suction frame is it possible to turn the board before feeding. The time while the saw is sawing will be used for building new consignments or for feeding new material into the storage.
Flexible applicable
The area storage systems features high versatility in size and stack height, ensuring high flexibility. The flexibility which enables the customer to master the most varied tasks with the most varied requirements. The load carriers will be designed according to the different materials. A large variety of board materials can be stored and single boards can be picked and feed out, i. e. :
- HPL faced kitchen worktops, KWT (with drip nose)
- High presse laminate ( 0,8 mm HPL )
- Melamine faced derived timber products, 19 mm strips for fronts,
- Solid wood worktops,
- Self faced materials (with overhanging facing material) , only stacks with same dimensions
- veneered board row (with overhanging veneer)
- row boards (derived timber products i. e. particle and MDF without facing)
- high pressure fibre board (usually 3 mm) one side smooth or faced and the other wire side
- boards out of plastic materials
- wrapped boards (with plastic wrapped or with a protection film covered surfaces)
- high gloss faced products
Storing in a manner which cares for the material and improves the product quality

One of the most important advantages is the damage-free handling of the derived products. By doing so the automatic storage system operates continuously at a comparatively high speed.
Robust execution which suits industrial needs
Warp resistance steel construction, optional servo drive technique (incl. energy recovery modules), laser measuring systems for the bridge positioning etc. are the basics for a reliable and up to date execution of the system.

Fast access
The warehouse administration system will be designed according to the specific requirement, and also can be integrated into the production control.
- the system knows where what was stored at any time.
- the system chooses the shortest way to move the material in and out.
- while the system operates you can already enter or transfer the next task.
Thus no time is lost in the production line. A continuous flow is guaranteed
Siemens S7 PLC control system
The basic for the control system is a Siemens S7 PLC in addition with a PLC warehouse administration system, which will be operated via the Siemens operator panel. This list function controls up to 250 stack locations.

Moreover, the customer can choose a PC-controlled warehouse management system, enabling him to establish a connection to superior control units.
A continues flow of information between saw and there optimisation program and the warehouse administration will be established.
The software features additional individual options for extensions, i. e. for the managing off cut offs. These can be stored inside of the automatic storage system or outside in a manual cut off storage.
A connection of the storage to the overhead control system is possible. The jobs can be send online. The inventory is always up to date available.
