An alternative solution.

If you are looking for an alternative to a Kalmar AutoShuttle you may want to consider a Kalmar AutoStrad™ which are larger and can pick, place and stack two containers at a time independently, giving you a cost-effective flexible solution as gantry cranes are not required to manage your stacks.
