You are here: Building the Model: Advanced Elements > Material Handling Systems > Automated Storage/Retrieval Systems > AS/RS Simulation Benefits
Simulating your AS/RS will help you address design and operational issues, answering the following questions:
• How many aisles do you need to handle the required activity?
• What is the best sequence of stores and retrievals to maximize throughput?
• What is the best stationing of empty S/R machines to minimize response time?
