AS/RS-reksysteem & Geautomatiseerde magazijnoplossingen | SSTC-inlichtingendienst
Shuttle Stacker Crane Storage system, utilizes the stapelkraan to work as both shuttle carrier and lift, thus achieving a highly efficient space usage solution, with the help of shuttles and conveyors under the control of WMS En WCS, all working together for fully automatic warehouse operation.
Shuttle-stapelaarkraanopslag, also called Pallet shuttle system, is incorporated with Stacker Cranes for higher-density storage racking.
Shuttle Stacker Crane Storage System | Hybrid High-Bay AS/RS
The SSTC Shuttle Stacker Crane Storage System represents a highly engineered hybrid AS/RS architecture that fuses the vertical lifting dominance of a traditional stacker crane with the multi-deep density of a radio shuttle system. In this high-bay layout, the stacker crane acts as the fast-velocity longitudinal and vertical carrier within the aisle, transporting and deploying autonomous radio shuttles into deep storage channels. This dual-component synchronization eliminates the need for expansive access aisles, enabling warehouses to scale upwards of 35 meters while achieving uncompromised storage capacities for high-density bulk logistics in 2026.
The Technical Synergy of Crane Cruising and Deep-Lane Shuttle Deployment
Operating under the synchronized commands of our proprietary WCS (Warehouse Control System) software, the shuttle-crane combination optimizes cycle times through distributed automation. The stacker crane executes rapid aisle travel and elevation to align its onboard satellite platform with the targeted racking tier. Once positioned, the radio shuttle is deployed directly from the crane’s carriage into the multi-deep rail lane, driving deep into the racking matrix to retrieve or store pallets. This operational flow minimizes crane travel bottlenecks, reduces structural deadweight compared to fork-based cranes, and dramatically increases total pallet throughput per aisle.

Working Principle of Shuttle Stacker Crane Storage System
Shuttle Stacker Crane Storage System, Maximizes efficiency and storage density by integrating Pallet shuttle with a stacker crane system, an unbeatable combination for high-performance warehouse automation. While the crane swiftly handles vertical movement and pallet retrieval, The Pallet shuttle takes over horizontal transport within deep-lane storage. This seamless collaboration eliminates unnecessary forklift traffic, reduces handling times, and optimizes every inch of warehouse space.
Smarter pallet handling, from top to bottom
By automating both vertical and horizontal pallet handling, this integrated solution boosts throughput, enhances safety, and lowers operational costs. Stacker Cranes handle vertical movement with speed and precision, placing and retrieving pallets at any height. Pallet Shuttle manages transport deep within storage lanes, enabling high-density storage and fast handling, even in compact layouts.
This combination suits everything from high-bay warehouses to temperature-controlled environments where precision and reliability are essential. The system is fully scalable, adaptable to your specific needs, and built to support high-demand operations.
Together, Pallet Shuttle and stacker cranes create a powerful, automated storage and retrieval solution that maximizes space, reduces manual work, and ensures consistent performance, resulting in a smarter, more streamlined warehouse running with relentless efficiency.
Comparing Shuttle Stacker Cranes against Standard AS/RS Architectures
Selecting the ideal high-bay automation system depends on balancing footprint utilization, ceiling constraints, and SKU profiles. While pure four-way shuttles offer maximum grid routing flexibility for complex mixed-SKU environments, and standard stacker cranes offer rapid single or double-deep access, the Shuttle Stacker Crane hybrid system dominates in massive, high-ceiling facilities handling uniform inventory. It provides a far more cost-effective structural solution by condensing multiple deep aisles into a single crane channel, offering the ultimate compromise between the vertical reach of cranes and the volumetric density of shuttles.
