Automatic Storage Machines are computer-controlled storage and transfer systems that can significantly improve the efficiency of product storage and picking.

These machines are easy to integrate with a Company’s existing Warehouse Management System (WMS), but they can also be used as a standalone system. The site and operating environment determines the system's size and composition.

An automatic storage system can save up to 70% on floor space, reduce picking errors by 70% and decrease picking time by more than 60%. The most efficient way of using storage machines is to have article management included with the machine. TC2000 article management software is especially developed for Tornado, Paternoster and HOCA and it can be included as standard to all our machines.
