GEBHARDT Cheetah® heavy
Faster Pallet Handling and Continuous Operation
The GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® is a rail-bound storage and retrieval machine (SRM) designed for fully automatically handling heavy Euro pallets, industrial pallets, and mesh boxes. It enhances efficiency for manufacturers and distributors by accelerating the storage and retrieval of goods. It also improves site safety by safely transporting heavy items to and from racking.
Its modular design offers exceptional flexibility, allowing customisation to meet specific needs such as load capacity, dimensions, building height, and storage/retrieval rates. It supports a payload of up to 1500kg and is suitable for a wide range of applications.
Additionally, the system enables multi-deep storage through the StoreBiter® OPS pallet shuttle in channel storage systems. The GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® is quick to commission, operates continuously to minimise downtime, and delivers consistent, error-free performance.

Improve Throughput and Accuracy
The GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® boosts efficiency by quickly transporting pallets to and from storage areas. This increased speed helps users meet tight deadlines, such as same-day and next-day deliveries. Automating storage and retrieval, also reduces human error, ensuring greater accuracy. Our solution works with WMS order management software to handle order requests. It automatically navigates to the correct storage location to store or retrieve items, providing reliable, consistent results every time.
Additionally, we can equip the GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® with two telescopic forks, enabling it to transport multiple load carriers in a single trip, further boosting efficiency.

Flexibility and Customisation
The modular design of the GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® allows it to be easily modified to suit new requirements, such as load capacity, dimensions, building height and throughput rates. These modifications can be made with minimal downtime and cost. Additionally, the high level of standardisation in the GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® leads to faster installation times. If needed, the mast can also be extended up to 42 meters, offering even greater flexibility.

Space Efficiency
One of the key benefits of investing in an automated storage and retrieval system is its ability to greatly enhance performance while maintaining a compact footprint. The GEBHARDT Cheetah heavy® system, when paired with high-density racking, maximises storage capacity by utilising vertical space. By opting for a high-density storage solution, you can increase storage capacity without the need for expanding your site. This approach not only preserves valuable floor space but could also help reduce utility costs, especially when compared to larger storage areas.
High Availability and Energy-Efficiency
By automating your storage processes, you can ensure continuous goods transport for maximum productivity. When using the StoreBiter® OPS pallet shuttle for storage and retrieval, supercaps can provide power, and charge stations can be mounted on both the carrier vehicle and storage channels. This fast-recharging method enables 24/7 operation as the batteries do not require protracted recharging.
