COMPACT

Storage and retrieval machines for ground-level delivery

Storage and Retrieval Machine

for existing shelving systems

The COMPACT automated storage and retrieval machine (SIR-machine) from DAMBACH automates existing warehouses without the need for costly retrofitting. A minimum clearance of 0 millimeters allows for the use of conventional forklift racks, completely eliminating wasted space on the lowest rack level. Construction heights up to 14 m, load capacities up to 1,350 kg, suitable for use in deep-freeze environments.

Load handling devices for every type of load carrier

Flat, flexible, precise

Telescopic forks for high handling capacity; the patented rotating and swiveling push fork for ground-level loading and unloading; a tilting mechanism for pallets with solid bottoms. A COMPACT unit can serve multiple rack aisles via a transfer car.

Cost-Effective Automation in Existing Warehouses

Use Existing Shelving Systems to Boost Performance

The lightweight design minimizes floor loads and lateral forces on the racking system. The compact sandwich-type undercarriage and optimized travel rails also allow conventional forklifts to continue operating in the racking aisle during maintenance.

Your Benefits 

with COMPACT

Existing shelving can be used

Compatible with conventional forklift racks, requiring only minimal adjustments to the existing infrastructure.

Ground-Level Loading and Unloading

A minimum clearance of 0 mm makes full use of every shelf level.

Quick Installation

Full pre-commissioning at the factory minimizes implementation time and commissioning effort.

Lightweight Construction

Low floor loads and minimal lateral forces on the racking help preserve the existing infrastructure.

Scalable

A COMPACT unit serves multiple aisles via a transfer car.

Adjustable Load Handling Devices

Telescopic forks, rotating and swiveling push forks, and tilt mechanisms for a wide variety of load carriers.

Aisle-Guided Storage and Retrieval Machines

MONO

Optimal use of space thanks to aisle-optimized design and minimal approach dimensions. MONO storage and retrieval machines (SIR-machines) are designed for high-bay warehouses with high speeds and heights of up to 49 m. The modular design allows for flexible adaptation to different requirements.

Curve-capable storage and retrieval machines

MULTI

Multiple units without fixed aisle assignments, with aisle switching via travel rails and switching mechanisms. MULTI storage and retrieval machines (SIR-machines) ensure maximum availability through variable aisle assignments. In the event of a unit failure or malfunction, the remaining units take over its tasks without interrupting system operation.
