Coil Intralogistics and Storage System | Packway, Shenzhen, China

Packway's Coil Intralogistics and Storage System moves and stores steel coils inside mills, processing plants and warehouses. It is offered as three types of transfer vehicle: rail-powered, battery-powered and trackless AGV.

The vehicles carry coils of 10–150 t and replace forklifts or cranes on long-distance, high-frequency transfers. Load capacity, travel speed, control interface and docking with coil strapping, labelling and packing systems can be customised to suit the site.

Key Features

• Rail-powered type runs on low-voltage track power or a cable drum, with precise positioning along fixed routes
• Battery-powered type uses lithium or lead-acid batteries, turns in any direction or on the spot, and suits narrow workshops
• Battery range of 8–12 hours supports multi-shift operation
• Trackless AGV type runs fully automatically on programmable paths, guided by magnetic strips or laser navigation
• Storage workflow takes tasks from a WMS/WCS system, with a mother shuttle and child shuttle handling racking pick-up and retrieval
• Load-bearing structure and multiple safety protections guard against coils rolling or tipping sideways
• Electric drive and a simple structure keep maintenance costs below those of forklifts or cranes
