ASRS (automated storage and retrieval system)

An Automated Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS) is a computerized system that efficiently manages inventory in warehouses or distribution centers. It uses robotic machinery, such as shuttles or cranes, to automatically store, retrieve, and organize goods, reducing manual effort and increasing speed and accuracy. ASRS optimizes space by stacking items vertically and ensures quick access to products, improving overall inventory management and operational efficiency. These systems are commonly used in industries like manufacturing, logistics, and retail to streamline logistics, reduce errors, and enhance productivity.
