The 4-way shuttle system is a new intelligent intensive storage system independently developed by Tianjin Master. The four-way shuttle system can realize vertical and horizontal travel in four directions. The 4-way shuttle system consists of a four-way shuttle, a horizontal conveying system, a hoist, a shelf system, a WMS management system and a WCS control system.
The four-way shuttle warehouse logistics system can automatically switch 90 degrees in the longitudinal storage lane and the horizontal transfer channel, which is more suitable for warehouse storage in complex building environments. Tianjin Master 4-way shuttle system is widely used in food, medicine, chemical industry, cold chain logistics, and other industries.
The 4-Way Shuttle System has the characteristics of high storage density, high efficiency of warehousing and retrieval, stable and safe system operation, high redundancy and strong expandability.
High storage and access flexibility
Flexible management can manage every designated cargo location
High safety and stability
Strong structure, safe and stable system
Higher storage density
Warehouse utilization rate is as high as 90%, which can increase the warehouse utilization rate of this system by 10%~60% compared with the traditional storage mode
Low energy consumption
Equipped with energy recovery function, reducing the loss of cold storage coldness, and saving 30% energy
Unlike traditional racking systems, our intelligent four-way pallet shuttle operates in multiple directions for seamless forward, backward, left, and right movements for superior flexibility in pallet storing and retrieving. Tianjin Master's 4-way shuttle system is ideal for cold storage, manufacturing, e-commerce, and large-scale distribution centers, providing speed, accuracy, and scalability.
Here's How It Works:
1. Loading & Positioning – The 4-way pallet shuttle receives pallets from the horizontal conveying system or stacker cranes.
2. Intelligent Operations – It moves autonomously along rails in horizontal and vertical directions, placing pallets in optimal storage lanes.
3. Automatic Retrieval – When a pallet is needed, the shuttle retrieves it swiftly, ensuring fast order fulfillment.
4. Continuous Operation – Multiple shuttles Coordination is applicable in parallel for high-throughput environments.
1. 4-Directional Movement – Move in all four directions for precise material handling.
2. Automated Pallet Handling – Reduces manual labor costs and safety risks with fully automatic shuttles.
3. High-Density Storage Optimization – Maximizes warehouse storage space with deep lane configurations.
4. Adaptable to Various Loads – Supports pallets, packages, boxes, and custom loads for diverse logistics needs.
5. Multi-Shuttle Coordination – Multiple shuttles can operate on the same level, improving throughput dynamically.
6. Integration with Warehouse Systems – Works with WMS (Warehouse Management Systems) and a WCS (warehouse control system) for real-time inventory control and equipment control.
