Part B. Consider a multi-aisle pallet AS/RS that should have an inventory capacity of X pallets, and handle, on average, Y pallets in and Y pallets out per hour. There is one machine in each aisle. System characteristics of a single machine are as follow: maximum height Hm maximum length (horizontal travel) Lm vertical speed vv m/'s horizontal speed hy m's shuttle operation optn sec system availability (uptime) uptime % For random storage, and single command cycles, determine: the number of aisles needed and their dimensions (in pallet positions, and meters) to satisfy the storage and handling requirements, using E(SCT) to estimate productivity for your configuration You will need to translate pallet spaces to dimensions, using the modular spacings given. These modular spacings show the increase in the horizontal vertical dimensions for an additional pallet space, including clearances and steel. Work with integer values of pallet positions, and convert these to meters, and then apply speeds, etc. It is recommended that you program the calculations for ease in evaluating configurations.Parts A,B Set1 Set2 Set3 Max height H, m 13.20 14.40 12.00 Max length L, m 60.00 48.00 54.00 vert. speed, vv, m/s 0.8 0.7 0.9 horiz. speed, hy, m/s 3.5 3.2 4.2 optn. time, s 6.0 7.0 6.5 uptime, % 0.94 0.95 0.98 modular pallet dimensions, m, H 1.20 1.20 1.20 W 1.20 1.20 1.20 D 1.20 1.20 1.20 Part B Total storage capacity, X 10,000 12,000 10,500 Total handling rate/hour, Y in 600 700 800 Y out 600 700 800 Parts C, F Percent single commands 0.30 0.35 0.45 Percent dual commands 0.70 0.65 Parts D, E, F 0.55 Storage requirements, class A 0.30 0.20 0.20 class B 0.30 0.30 0.20 class C 0.40 0.50 0.60 sums 1.00 1.00 1.00 Activity by class, class A 0.50 0.45 0.60 class B 0.30 0.35 0.25 class C 0.20 0.20 0. 15 sums 1.00 1.00 1.00
