Goods-to-Person: Fast, comfortable and safe access

ROTAR works on the materials-to-operator principle: the rotating carrier containing the requested items is automatically brought to the ergonomic access opening, eliminating unnecessary walking and searching time. Operators can retrieve materials quickly, safely and without physical strain.

Requests are entered directly through the control keyboard or touch panel on the work surface.

Integration with the ICON management software boosts productivity and guarantees full traceability of stored items.

More Space, Speed and Control in every Rotation

ROTAR offers a number of real, practical benefits if you are looking for safe and efficient materials management:

  1. Space: Maximise your storage capacity in a compact footprint. ROTAR frees valuable floor area for future expansion or for storing more materials.
  2. Productivity: High carrier rotation speed ensures faster retrieval, minimising operator movement. Full system access from a single ergonomic workstation. Integration with your ERP or WMS ensures quick search, error-free operations and total item traceability.
  3. Protection: Access limited to authorised personnel only. A lockable metal shutter seals materials inside, shielding them from dust, light and humidity.
  4. Versatility: A wide range of carriers and accessories efficiently organises different types of materials such as folders, maps, pharmaceuticals, consumables or small components.
  5. Safety: Integrated safety devices protect both operators and materials. The external light curtain stops rotation instantly in case of interference, while the lockable shutter ensures secure and uninterrupted operations.
  6. Ergonomics: The optimal work height and intuitive controls make handling smooth and effortless, allowing operators to work safely and comfortably with maximum efficiency.

Modular Design, Smart Organisation

Modular carriers and accessories allows efficient storage of lightweight materials such as spare parts, consumables or even pharmaceuticals within the vertical carousel.

Three carrier heights (270, 300, 360 mm) and multiple size options (length: 2,200–2,900 mm; depth: 360 or 420 mm) guarantee configuration flexibility. Each carrier supports up to 120 kg.

Carriers can be customised with intermediate shelves, dividers and removable containers, ensuring optimal space use, improved organization and shorter retrieval times.

Ergonomics and Safety at their best

The workstation provides ergonomic and safe access to stored materials. Each system can feature one or more workstations positioned at different levels.

The melamine-faced work surface allows operators to work comfortably, sitting or standing. A centrally positioned touchscreen panel manages all retrieval and storage operations while displaying messages or alerts. Start and stop buttons and an emergency control are always within reach, ensuring full operational safety.

Safety Devices

Safety devices installed at every access point ensure maximum protection for both operators and stored materials.

  • Dual single-beam light curtains detect protruding items and stop rotation immediately
  • Multi-beam light curtain safeguards the operator during picking
  • Lockable sliding shutter prevents unauthorized access
  • Emergency hand crank enables manual retrieval in case of power failure
