Abstract
The average task cycle time formulation for storage/ retrieval machine are presented considering various travel speeds with known acceleration and deceleration rates. Consider the speed profiles in real-world applications, simulation experiments with discrete storage locations are constructed to find the relationship of average single-command cycle time and length and height of rack. Rack area is divided into several storage zones and could be useful tools for realizing economical design and efficient management for automated storage/ retrieval system (AS/RS) in real-world applications.
