Storing Parts for Cleanrooms with Automated Storage & Retrieval Machines
Storing cleanroom parts in Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines (ASRS) provide the best storage solution to maximize parts storage while minimizing exposure to contaminants. Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines have been implemented for decades in over 75,000 successful installations around the world. Properly designed and planned, these machines will reduce construction costs by maximizing floor space, lower the risk for exposing cleanrooms to contaminants, and dramatically improve productivity related to the delivery and retrieval of parts.

Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines Multiple Level Storage Technology
Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems can be installed with hard or soft wall technology to create up to a Class 1 clean room workstation at a fraction of the price of comparable systems. Cleanroom parts can be stocked from one level and delivered to multiple floor locations vertically throughout the building with a push of a button. In addition, positive air flow can be implemented in the ASRS machines to maintain required levels of cleanliness and decrease the risk of contamination. Optional, automatic motion sensing doors on the Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines open for access to product only when needed, and close to resume systematic air-flow of internal machine.

Save Up To 75% Floor Space and Reduce Construction with Vertical ASRS Cleanroom Machines
Since Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines are vertical storage systems that can be designed as tall as 100 feet, expensive floorspace can be easily maximized to reduce construction costs and customize the flow of materials to clean rooms with minimal exposure to contaminants. In addition, Automated Storage and Retrieval storage trays are available in widths up to 13 feet wide and are capable of storing small parts and large boxes within the same unit.
Vertical Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines Improve Productivity, Accuracy, and Ergonomics
The Automated Storage and Retrieval Machines deliver clean room parts to the operator at an ergonomic waist-high access port to eliminate bending, stretching and heavy lifting. SEMI compliant Load Ports and robotic interfaces can be integrated for total automation and ergonomic handling. Features like inventory management software and bar code scanning with Pick-To-Light technology enhance productivity and accuracy when picking parts and managing inventory stock counts. By integrating ASRS software controls, management is able to better implement JIT, Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma programs. Users of the Vertical ASRS and integrated pick-to-light technologies often realize accuracy levels to 99.9%.
