Redefining Efficiency: Daifuku’s AS-35 Transforms Warehouse Operations
Daifuku Intralogistics America is proud to unveil the AS-35 Shoe Sorter, the next generation of its cutting-edge sortation technology. Built on the trusted foundation of sliding shoe sorter design, the AS-35 delivers unparalleled speed, reliability, and innovation. With its ability to push operational possibilities beyond what was previously achievable, the AS-35 is revolutionizing material handling for modern warehouses and distribution centers.
A New Standard in Sortation Technology
The AS-35 represents a leap forward in intralogistics innovation, combining advanced engineering with valuable client feedback. While retaining the durability and dependability of its predecessors, the AS-35 introduces significant enhancements that cater to today’s demanding operational environments.
Key Features and Benefits
• Speed and Throughput
With top speeds of up to 750 feet per minute, the AS-35 ensures maximum throughput for high-volume operations. This unprecedented speed enables businesses to meet growing demands with efficiency.
• Unrivaled Reliability
The AS-35 utilizes an innovative slat tracking system, eliminating tracking errors caused by chain stretch and ensuring accurate carton diverting. This guarantees precise sortation, even during high-speed operations.
• Simplified Maintenance
Maintenance is made hassle-free with features like full-length plexiglass side panels for easy access, debris trays to capture dust, dirt and debris, and an O-ring sealed chain that eliminates the need for constant lubrication.
• Quiet Operation
Designed with sound-dampening materials and precision-engineered components, the AS-35 ensures a quieter work environment, enhancing employee comfort.
• Scalable Design
Available in multiple widths and lengths of up to 1,000 feet, the AS-35 accommodates various operational requirements, from small packages to larger items like totes and cardboard cases.
Advancing Efficiency and Productivity
The AS-35 was developed with the future of intralogistics in mind. By localizing its production in Hobart, Indiana, Daifuku has streamlined its supply chain to reduce lead times and ensure top-notch quality. Pre-installed components such as divert stations, control panels, and cables minimize installation time, allowing businesses to benefit from faster commissioning and immediate operational advantages.
Innovative Engineering for Seamless Operations
