Swisslog Asia Pacific will exclusively include PAS technology as part of its solution portfolio following an agreement signed between the two companies.
The PAS proprietary system is based on PowerStor, a cart-based automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) used for multiple deep storage of palletised loads. PowerStor provides automated storage and high throughput rates for large quantities in high-density warehouses, and is also very effective in existing, space restricted or odd-shaped facilities.
The solution has been successfully installed for a number of North American, European and Australian customers since its foundation in the year 2000. With the cooperation of Swisslog APAC and PAS, more customers throughout the region will benefit from the high storage density and efficiency of the solution.
"We foresee continuous increase in demand for warehouse and distribution automation in our region," said Rudolf Hausladen, head of Swisslog Asia-Pacific, Warehouse& Distribution Solutions Division.
"The PowerStor system will provide us with a competitive extension to our automation solutions portfolio, which enables us to offer comprehensive pallet handling technologies in existing and new market segments, further enhancing our leading position in the region."
