L-RAIDER Shuttle System: High-Performance Deep-Lane Automation

What an automated warehouse with the L-RAIDER system is and when it should be adopted

The L-RAIDER system, developed by Logaut and integrated by Modulblok, is an intralogistics automation solution that uses the racking structure itself as a means of transfer, handling, and support for unit loads.
It is an innovative concept in which pallet handling is performed by a dedicated shuttle running inside dedicated movement channels, with zero-encumbrance guides that allow every level to be fully exploited without any loss of usable space.

Compared with traditional shuttle systems, L-RAIDER:

• optimizes pallet handling thanks to an 800 mm gripping interface, offering superior performance for intensive flows
• reduces overall footprint within the channels, enabling greater storage height
• speeds access to deep positions through a configuration with fewer pallets in depth and a higher number of available channels

The L-RAIDER system is ideal when:

• high-performance storage and retrieval cycles are required (up to 25 unit loads/hour, standard)
• warehouse capacity must be increased quickly without expanding the building footprint
• bottlenecks typical of conventional shuttle solutions must be eliminated
• continuous, reliable, and scalable automation is needed

Benefits of automated warehouses with the L-RAIDER System

Maximum storage density (up to +70% more channels available)
Thanks to its zero-encumbrance guide system, L-RAIDER enables additional load levels and up to 70% more channels on the front side compared with traditional systems.
→ This allows storage of a much larger number of SKUs while improving selectivity and avoiding overlaps.

Faster access to deep positions
The system operates with an optimized number of pallets per channel:
→ with equal channel length, fewer pallets in depth means faster access times, even to the deepest positions.

Advanced modularity and fast installation

L-RAIDER is:

• a “lightweight system”, easy to install and maintain
• highly scalable and flexible, suitable for both new installations and retrofits
• upgradeable over time with additional shuttles or structural expansions

Reduced operating costs

The combination of reduced footprint, increased channel count, and higher handling speed results in:

• fewer manual movements
• lower risk of flow congestion
• better use of available volume and floor space
• a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) compared with traditional shuttle solutions

Where automated warehouses with the L-RAIDER System are recommended

L-RAIDER systems by Modulblok are ideal for:

• logistics centers with high pallet density per SKU
• companies managing many SKUs that require high selectivity
• intensive warehouses operating across multiple shifts
• 3PL operators requiring flexibility and scalability
• environments with limited space but strong capacity-increase requirements
• Industry 4.0 projects focused on high performance and advanced software integration

The system is particularly suitable where it is necessary to maximize channel count, speed up access, increase storage capacity, and optimize the entire operational cycle.
