New software and hardware improvements offer increased flexibility in the  design, specification and maintenance of horizontal carousel systems, and provide enhanced operating controls. Typically used for product picking in warehouse and distribution center operations and in buffering applications for manufacturing operations.

Improvements include modifications to the SpectrumPlus warehouse control system software. Streamlined reporting, improved processing speed and new inventory management functions are said to provide better control of the carousel induction process, carousel inventories and product replenishment.

Hardware enhancements include a new standardized track design, which enables the use of different sized product shelves on the same carousel track; the replacement of DC drives with AC drives; and the use of non-proprietary controls. Customers can now specify commercial, off-the-shelf control hardware.
