| KardexRemstar horizontal carousels consist of an oval track with rotating bins containing shelves that deliver items to the operator. Often used in integrated workstations of carousels called a “pod.” This allows an operator to pick from one active carousel while the others are pre-positioning to be picked the moment the operator is ready. Every carousel uses one of the many integrated QuickPick® pick-to-light technologies to indicate the active carousel, shelf level and quantity of items to pick, making batch picking simple, fast and easy. |

- Vertically stack up to 3 carousels to maximize the use of overhead space.
- Pick Light Systems Improve Accuracy and Productivity
-Bright indicators show at a glance which carousel and shelf to pick from and how many items to pick, reducing picking errors and maximizing productivity.
- Special indicators allow multiple orders to be picked simultaneously (batch picking) by showing the exact number of items for each order container, dramatically increasing operator productivity.
- Optional software & bar coding enhance order processing, replenishing, communications to host, and reporting accuracy.
- Design Features Provide Maximum Safety and Performance
- KardexRemstar Horizontal Carousels are designed for fast, reliable performance…ease of use…and total safety.
- KardexRemstar controls handles up to 4 carousels at a time, expandable up to 8.
