ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An automated storage and retrieval system that greatly facilitates the handling and processing efficiency of material stored in a warehouse. The present system includes an electronically controlled storage/retrieval machine that is adapted to either retrieve material stored in storage racks and transport the material to a pro- cessing area, or store material retrieved from the processing area in the storage racks. The system is designed so that material can be passed back and forth through the racks to and from the processing area. In this manner, the processing area is not relegated to the limited space available at the ends of the aisle between the racks. In addition, the storage/retrieval machine is equipped with an optical scanner that is adapted to read identification codes appearing on the storage cassettes to insure that the intended loads are being transported. This greatly reduces the possibility of lost or misplaced loads.
