Abstract:
A method for fetching a target bin stored in a storage system ( 100 ), wherein the storage system includes a three-dimensional storage grid containing a plurality of bins stacked in vertical stacks, supporting rails ( 13 ) on the grid structure, and a plurality of vehicles ( 1 ), controllably arranged to move individually on the supporting rails. The method is performed by a control device in the system and comprises controlling at least one non-target vehicle to operate as intermediate storage for a bin located vertically above the target bin ( 5 ); controlling a target vehicle to pick up the target bin, and controlling the at least one non-target vehicle and the target vehicle to be positioned adjacent to each other in a linear manner on the supporting rails. A corresponding storage system has also been disclosed.

Claim (Index 3):
The method according to  claim 1 , further comprising controlling each of the plurality of non-target vehicles to return and unload the single bin to the target location in an opposite order compared to the order in which the non-target vehicles picked up the single bin in the controlling steps.
