Zusammenfassung:	An automated storage and retrieval system includes a multi-level storage rack and a material handling robot, where the multi-level storage rack includes a plurality of cuboid cells and the material handling robot is configured to navigate along a vertical direction or a horizontal direction from a first cuboid cell to a second cuboid cell. When the navigation from the first cuboid cell to the second cuboid cell is along a vertical direction, a set of second engagement structures disposed at corners of the material handling robot are mated with a set of first engagement structures disposed along structural columns of the first cuboid cell. A rotation of the second engagement structures drives the material handling robot to vertically move along the structural columns of the first cuboid cell. Un système de stockage et de récupération automatisé comprend un râtelier de stockage multi-niveau et un robot de manipulation de matériau, le râtelier de stockage multi-niveau comprenant une pluralité de cellules cuboïdes et le robot de manipulation de matériau étant configuré pour naviguer le long d'une direction verticale ou d'une direction horizontale d'une première cellule cuboïde à une seconde cellule cuboïde. Lorsque la navigation de la première cellule cuboïde à la seconde cellule cuboïde est le long d'une direction verticale, un ensemble de secondes structures de mise en prise disposées aux coins du robot de manipulation de matériau sont accouplées à un ensemble de premières structures de mise en prise disposées le long de colonnes structurales de la première cellule cuboïde. Une rotation des secondes structures de mise en prise entraîne le robot de manipulation de matériau à se déplacer verticalement le long des colonnes structurales de la première cellule cuboïde.
