Summary of Innovation

The GEBHARDT StoreBiter 300 MLS is a highly dynamic shuttle system for operation with multiple storage levels. This shuttle system offers effective access to input and output goods with a multitude of applications, in accordance with the “goods-to-man” principle. Due to the various load handling attachments, the StoreBiter 300 MLS is able to input and output containers, boxes and trays on a multi-depth storage basis. The storage goods may exhibit a range of sizes here. In contrast to the classic small parts store solutions, the shuttle system exhibits a significantly higher input and output capacity, whilst the storage system can also be flexibly expanded due to its modular design.

The new GEBHARDT Galileo IoT Platform offers customers the possibility of digitalising and networking their complete intralogistics system on a Cloud. Through the creation of a digital twin within the platform, it is possible to visualise system expansions and modifications through the use of augmented reality in the form of 3D holograms. Due to the continuous condition monitoring, customers can access real-time data at any time. This allows them to recognise impending downtimes and the need for maintenance work in a timely manner (predictive maintenance). As a result of this, maintenance and repairs can take place at scheduled times, which reduces downtimes during ongoing production. This type of approach has a positive effect on the service life of components and machines. Users of the GEBHARDT Galileo IoT have access to all data of a material flow system at a glance via dashboards.

Innovation Statement

The GEBHARDT Galileo IoT platform is an innovation that enables customers to take the first step towards Intralogistics 4.0. By monitoring the mechanics, control system and software, all data of the material flow system is recorded consistently and completely. This data can be called up across all locations, so that our customers can always keep an eye on the real-time data of their plant. Predictive maintenance allows operating costs to be saved, as the plant can be maintained in advance, thus eliminating downtimes.

Applicability

The StoreBiter 300 multi-level shuttle is an innovation that combines the advantages of different storage solutions. It combines the proven technology of stacker cranes with the advantages of highly dynamic shuttle systems. In the StoreBiter 300 MLS high version, warehouses for low building heights can also be efficiently automated in the shortest possible time. Since the MLS can access several storage levels, a cost-effective storage of various goods is possible. Another major advantage is that our MLS is virtually maintenance-free thanks to its straightforward design and robustness.
