Bins

Special and Standard

All goods are stored in standardized, specially designed plastic containers called Bins. Every single Bin is identified by a unique number stored in the AutoStore™ Controller database and repeated with a label on the Bin. The system knows the location of every Bin.

100% Access Any robot can collect any bin and deliver it to any port.

Multiple Sizes Three bin heights provide flexibility to fit your storage needs.

Strong construction

Durable and long-lasting

Manufactured of HDPE, PP-C or anti-static PP-ESD, the AutoStore Bin is stackable and engineered to withstand hundreds of thousands of movements over years of service. Bins are so durable, the world's first AutoStore warehouse at Elotec in Norway still uses the Bins installed in 2005.

5.9 m / 19.4 feet Maximum stack storage height

5,966 Number of bins in continuous rotation at Elotec since 2005

Tote flexibility

Usable outside the Grid

AutoStore Bins are engineered with the durability and versatility required to handle any task within your warehouse walls — even those outside the Grid.

Transfer cells make it possible.

This common system design connects the AutoStore Grid to an inbound/outbound conveyor loop so you can move products anywhere you want —receiving, sorting, storing, picking, packing, and shipping — without manual assistance.
