GARUDA — semi-automatic pallet shuttle

Deep-lane density,without the aisles.

GARUDA drives the pallet, not the forklift. One shuttle serves an entire lane of racking — reclaiming the floor that aisles used to eat, and moving two pallets a minute while it does it.

The system

Storage that earns its floor

A pallet shuttle changes the economics of a warehouse in three places: the footprint you pay rent on, the pallets you can move an hour, and the conditions the equipment will tolerate.

  • Reclaim the aisle

    Conventional selective racking spends up to 70% of its footprint on aisles. GARUDA works inside the lane, so pallets go where forklifts used to drive.

    Deep-lanestorage geometry
  • Two pallets a minute

    Autonomous in-lane cycling at 1.2 m/s unladen and 0.8 m/s under full load, running FIFO or LIFO against the same rack without reconfiguration.

    2/minsustained throughput
  • Cold store to ambient

    Rated −5 °C to 55 °C on a 24 V / 54 Ah pack. The same unit handles chilled FMCG lanes and un-airconditioned Indian warehouse roofs.

Three builds

One platform, sized to your load

The same drive system and control stack across all three. What changes is the chassis rating, the duty cycle and the environment it's sealed for.

The volume build

Generic1 T

The standard ambient-warehouse shuttle. Sized for palletised FMCG, 3PL and e-commerce lanes where throughput matters more than unit weight.

  • Standard 24 V / 54 Ah pack
  • FIFO and LIFO on the same rack
  • All three EU pallet formats

Typical applications

  • FMCG
  • 3PL
  • E-Commerce
  • Fashion

Drive system, controls and the 1320 × 950 × 170 mm envelope are common across all three builds, so lane geometry carries over if you change rating later.

3D & augmented reality

Stand it on your own floor

Spin the shuttle, or drop it into your warehouse at true scale through your phone camera. It occupies exactly the 1320 × 950 mm the real unit does — so you can check a lane before anyone quotes one.

Everything that moves, sees and counts

Shuttles and AGVs move the pallet. Vision and tracking make sure the system knows where it went.

What we do

Specified, installed and supported

We are not a reseller. The team that models your lanes is the team that builds the shuttle and answers the phone three years later.

  • Comprehensive warehouse automation

  • Tailored solutions

    Concept to implementation. We model your SKU profile, lane depths and throughput targets before a single upright is ordered.

  • Technical support

    Installation, operator training, troubleshooting and after-sales support from the engineering team that built the unit — India and UK.
