First of all, we should know that the stacker is the abbreviation of the stacker crane, and plays a representative mark in the automated warehouse, which can realize remote control, operation process without manual intervention, and the degree of automation undertakes the functions of picking up, transportation, lifting and shipping.So the key point is that the types of stacker can be divided into the following types:
1. Classify according to whether there are guide rails or not
It can be divided into rail stacker and trackless stacker. The rail stacker crane refers to that the stacker crane runs along the track in the roadway, and the trackless stacker crane is also known as the elevated forklift.The main operation equipment used in the warehouse are: track roadway stacking crane, trackless roadway stacking crane and ordinary forklift.
2. According to the different height, it can be divided into low-level, middle-level and high-level types. The low-level stacker crane refers to the lifting height below 5m, which is mainly used in the split high-level shelf warehouse and simple three-dimensional warehouse; the middle-level stacker crane refers to the lifting height of 5-15m, and the high-level stacker crane refers to the lifting height above 15m, which is mainly used in the high-level shelf warehouse;In the high-rise shelf warehouse.
3. It is classified according to different driving modes
It can be divided into upper drive, lower drive and combination of upper and lower drive.
4. According to the degree of automation
It can be divided into manual, semi-automatic and automatic stacking cranes.Manual and semi-automatic stacker cranes are equipped with driver’s cab, while automatic stacker crane is not equipped with driver’s cab and controlled by automatic control device
5. Stacking crane can be divided into bridge stacker and tunnel stacker according to different uses
Bridge type stacker refers to the stacker with suspended column guide; tunnel stacker refers to the stacker with upper and lower support of metal structure, and the stacker runs along the warehouse roadway to load the finished goods.
6. According to the different column structure, the tunnel stacker can be divided into single column stacker and double column stacker.
The frame of stacker with single column structure is composed of a column and a lower beam.The columns are mostly made of large H-shaped steel or welded, and the guide rails are attached to the columns.The whole machine is light in weight and consumes less materials, so the manufacturing cost is relatively low, but the rigidity is slightly poor.The frame of double column stacker consists of two columns, upper beam and lower beam to form a rectangular frame.The column forms are square tube and round tube.The square tube is also used as the lifting guide rail, and the round tube is added with the lifting guide rail.Generally, the stacker with high lifting height, large lifting capacity and high horizontal running speed adopts double column structure.
The stacker has a high handling speed and cargo access speed, which can complete the warehousing operation in a short time. The maximum running speed of the stacker crane can reach 500m / min. if you want to know more about this equipment, you can contact our company for consultation.
