Re: pic: Panthrobotics Presents Ascendance

What's the pitch between the hooks (though ledges or mantles might be a better description)? Obviously a bit larger than 12", but probably not too much larger to speed up disengaging from a stack of totes.

Hmmm.. If you run the conveyors up so high that the hooks pull out of the way, I suppose you could still make stacks taller than 4 totes if those shelves are short enough to feet between the extended stacking tabs on the side of the totes. That would certainly make for a secure carry of single totes on each hook, as well.

See you at Bayou!
