The Benefits of AutoStore^TM Grids

Maximize Your Warehouse Space with the AutoStore Grid

The AutoStore Grid allows you to store up to four times as many goods in the same footprint compared to traditional shelving systems. By stacking bins vertically and eliminating the need for aisles, the Grid maximizes your storage capacity.

Customizable
Layout

No two warehouses are the same, and the AutoStore Grid reflects that reality. Its modular design means you can configure it to fit any warehouse shape, size, or height, adapting to your specific requirements. Whether you need to build around existing structures or expand vertically, the Grid can be customized to suit your needs.

Robust and
Durable

Constructed from high-quality aluminum, the Grid is designed to withstand the demands of a busy warehouse environment. Its sturdy construction ensures long-term durability, providing a reliable foundation for your automated storage solution.

Seamless
Scalability

As your business grows, so too can your AutoStore system. The Grid is designed for easy expansion, allowing you to add more storage capacity without disrupting ongoing operations. This scalability means you can continue to meet increasing demand without significant downtime or costly reconfigurations.

Enhanced Operational
Efficiency

By organizing your inventory within the Grid, the AutoStore system streamlines your order fulfillment process. The autonomous robots navigate seamlessly across the Grid, quickly retrieving and delivering bins to workstations. This efficiency reduces picking times, minimizes errors, and boosts overall productivity.

How It Works
Quick and Easy Construction

The AutoStore Grid, manufactured from high-quality aluminum, combines lightweight design with exceptional durability, ensuring it can handle the demands of any warehouse environment.

Constructing the AutoStore Grid is almost as straightforward as assembling LEGO™ blocks. With only 17 different parts, all AutoStore components are standardized modules that are simple to assemble and effortlessly connect.

Tracks & Grid: Maximum Flexibility for Your AutoStore System

Smart Rail System for Ultimate Efficiency

The AutoStore Grid features rails running in both X and Y directions, allowing robots to access every cell within the system. With the Double/Double Grid (DDG) setup, robots can pass each other in both directions, ensuring optimal traffic flow and high throughput.

Single/Double Grid (SDG): Robot passing in one direction (X or Y)
Double/Double Grid (DDG): Robot passing in both directions (X and Y)

Multi-Level Grid Connections

With the AutoStore Bin Lift™, multiple grids across different warehouse floors can be seamlessly connected. This enables better space utilization and significantly reduces real estate costs.

Compatible with both SDG and DDG tracks
Vertical reach up to 16.5 meters for efficient multi-level storage

Seamless Expansion During Operation

Thanks to the modular design, extending your AutoStore Grid is fast, simple, and causes no disruption to ongoing operations. All it takes is a flat floor and basic tools.

Typical setup time: one month
Tools needed: hex keys, wrenches, mallet, and a drill

Self-Supporting Design with Grid Bracer

The Grid Bracer module turns the DDG Grid into a fully self-supporting structure—eliminating the need for additional support around pillars or walls. This increases installation flexibility, reduces construction costs, and maximizes storage density.

No additional structural supports needed
Maximized bin capacity – Grid Bracer does not occupy any storage cells

AutoStore^TM Components

Five modules, combined with the expertise of syncore, create endless possibilities.

AutoStore is an advanced automated storage and retrieval system composed of five key components. These elements work together to optimize warehouse operations, maximize space utilization, and enhance the speed and accuracy of order fulfillment.

AutoStore Bins

AutoStore bins are the standardized storage containers that keep inventory perfectly organized inside the grid. Stacked tightly to maximize every cubic meter, each bin can hold a broad mix of SKUs, from small parts to packaged goods. When an order calls for an item, AutoStore robots travel across the grid, retrieve the required bin, and deliver it directly to a workstation port, so operators get the right products at the right moment with minimal walking and predictable flow.

AutoStore Controller

The AutoStore Controller is the intelligent core that keeps the entire AutoStore operation synchronized. It continuously tracks the position and status of every bin, robot, and port within the grid, then orchestrates movements and task priorities to maintain smooth, efficient flow. The result is reliable coordination across the system, with real time control that helps your warehouse stay predictable, responsive, and ready to scale.

AutoStore Ports

AutoStore workstations, known as Ports, are designed to optimize order fulfillment, enhance worker productivity, and integrate seamlessly into your warehouse operations. These workstations come in various models, each tailored to specific needs, ensuring that your warehouse runs smoothly and efficiently.

AutoStore Robots

Discover how AutoStore can sync your warehouse for success with high density storage, fast goods to person picking, and scalable automation that grows with your operation. With syncore, you get more than a system, you get a tailored implementation that aligns technology, software, and processes into one reliable flow. From solution design and integration to service that supports continuity day and night, we help you boost productivity, reduce operating costs, and build a business case that delivers strong ROI.

AutoStore Grids

The AutoStore Grid is the structural foundation of the system, a robust three dimensional aluminium framework where bins are stacked at maximum density to unlock exceptional space efficiency. Designed to fit your operation, the grid is modular and configurable, making it easy to adapt to different building layouts, integrate into existing warehouse flows, and expand in step with your growth.

330 mm Bins: The Grid can accommodate up to 16 bins high, equating to a total height of 5.4 meters. Including robots and the recommended service space, the total height reaches 7.52 meters.

220 mm Bins: The Grid can hold up to 24 bins high, maintaining the same total height of 5.4 meters. With robots and service space, the total height is also 7.52 meters.

425 mm Bins: The Grid can stack up to 14 bins high, resulting in a height of 6 meters. With the addition of robots and the necessary service space, the total height extends to 8.18 meters.

These specifications ensure you can optimize your storage capacity within the given height limits, maximizing efficiency and utilization of your warehouse space.

How Much Clearance Is Needed Between the Roof and the Top of the Grid?

We recommend maintaining at least 2 meters of clearance above the Grid for optimal performance and safety. While it is possible to work with less clearance, this must be reviewed and approved by local authorities and our experts.

These specifications ensure you can optimize your storage capacity within the given height limits, maximizing efficiency and utilization of your warehouse space.

What Is the Center-to-Center Distance (Length-Width) Between the Bins?

Single/Double Grid: The center-to-center distance is 705mm in the wide Grid direction and 480mm in the narrow Grid direction.

Double/Double Grid: The center-to-center distance is 705mm in the wide Grid direction and 505mm in the narrow Grid direction.

Can an AutoStore Grid Be Installed in Environments with Temperature Variations?

Yes, the AutoStore Grid can be installed in environments with temperature fluctuations. It is crucial to account for the effects of temperature changes on the aluminum tracks, especially for larger Grids. The AutoStore Grid incorporates a Flexible Grid Cell component that provides high resilience, holding the tracks together and safely absorbing thermal expansion. This ensures the Grid remains even and maintains optimal working conditions for the Robots, which is essential for system stability and uptime.
