JASHAWN REFLECTION



Hello, i want to post about the trip to the ALB. I am very sad to say that i missed the trip. I was told that the warehouse is very big. it is about the height of 20m high, which is about 10 storeys tall. It actually fully utilized the cubic capacity. The warehouse uses the through flow method. The storage system that the ALB use are Bin ASRS for the small items, Pellets ASRS and APIR.



The vertical carousel systems are found in the medical warehouse, which has 74 layers, which consists of 5,578 tote bins, where each bin is a location for small light load items. The vertical carousel is linked to the warehouse management information system (WMS). As for medical goods, it uses this storagee system for order picking. It is full computerised system. This place is also air conditioned so that the goods wont get contaminated so easily.

The powered Mobile Racking and Shelving system was found in the storage area on the ground level. It optimises storage space for fast moving items by having very narrow vertical aisles.

By missing this trip, i lose out alot to the rest of my classmates. Therefore when writing this report, i felt regretful. i hope i will get the chance the visit it one day.
