An automatic warehouse system which allows an operator to sit at a fixed station and by placing punched cards into card readers and pressing a "GO" button can cause a fork to take one article from a pickup station into storage and to retrieve any other article from storage on its return trip and bring it to a point. Depending upon the information punched on the card, it can skip either the storage or the retrieval operation and perform the other or it can cause the fork to move an article from any rack in the warehouse to any other rack without returning to the pickup or set-down stations. In performing these movements in three dimensions, the system is provided with apparatus which recalculates the position of the fork every step of the way so as to eliminate any error that may occur, and stops, backs out or returns to the pickup station if it detects a full bin or other obstruction.
