GEBHARDT CHEETAH Miniload - Type 701.01

For storage and retrieval machines acceleration, speed and delivery time take more and more on greater significance. For this, GEBHARDT is setting new standards. “Who is faster?” That was the target of the GEBHARDT engineers in developing the new miniload type “CHEETAH®”. “CHEETAH®” – as the name implies – is extremely fast and very lightweight thanks to innovative materials. It scored top marks in dynamics and geometry because of this lightweight construction.

Integration of future

The quest for speed with its requirements for energy efficiency and low maintenance costs – all these attributes are combined in this miniload type. The GEBHARDT CHEETAH® reaches more throughput with similar costs of previous models. The above mentioned energy efficiency is achieved by an intelligent energy management and reduced weight. The multi-material mixture consisting of composite, steel and aluminum, which is usually only used in vehicle and aircraft construction as well as in sailing, ensures that the deadweight of the CHEETAH® could be reduced by 60% in comparison to its predecessors. This weight reduction is also a factor that provides for tremendous dynamic of this type. However, such high speeds are not useful in any application. Therefore, the GEBHARDT CHEETAH® is  adjusted to the necessary dynamic in order to achieve maximum efficiency.

Stability in spite of saving space

The large mast in half-timbered construction provides necessary stability and strength, so that vibrations can hardly occur. Furthermore, it leads to a low emphasis of the whole system and achieves improved driving quality. With the drive unit and its controlled friction directly positioned at the rail an optimum power transfer is possible.  The GEBHARDT CHEETAH® convinces with the shortening of its chassis by 15% compared to its predecessor. In spite of this place-saving all distinctive spare parts are easily accessible and maintenance-friendly designed. The result: more productivity with less downtime.

Adjustment to the orders

The control engineering is integrated into the large-volume mast and has the advantage of better approach dimensions. The movable control system provides an exact positioning, the recovery of energy and an energy-optimized overlay of the movements. Special feature: The intelligent control system in combination with the GEBHARDT StoreWare adjusts the speed to the order situation by its own. The data is transmitted via WLAN or optical data.
