Sliding Rack System

The pallet flow rack system is a high-density storage solution designed for maximum storage efficiency and utilization. Here’s how it works:

• Design: Pallet flow racks consist of slightly inclined channels equipped with rollers or wheels. These channels allow pallets to slide from the loading aisle to the picking aisle using gravity.
• Functionality: Palletized loads are placed at the highest point of the channel. They then move towards the opposite end under the effect of gravity, where they are ready for retrieval. Unlike traditional racks, there are no intermediate aisles, increasing storage capacity.
• FIFO Strategy: Pallet flow racks can operate on a FIFO (First In, First Out) basis. This means the oldest inventory is used first, ensuring efficient inventory turnover.

Key Advantages of Pallet Flow Racks:

• Maximum Space Utilization: Significantly increases warehouse capacity.
• Seamless Product Turnover: Excellent stock control.
• Time-Saving: Easy product placement reduces forklift maneuvering time.
• Separate Loading and Unloading: Storage and retrieval occur in separate aisles.
• Multi-SKU Capability: Different channels can accommodate various SKUs.
• Energy Efficiency: Smaller cooled volumes in low-temperature facilities.
• Safety and Reliability: Designed for risk-free operation.

Ideal Applications:

• Large-scale storage of high-turnover SKUs.
• Managing perishable goods (e.g., food and pharmaceuticals).
• Connecting two operation zones (e.g., production and shipping).
• Accelerating material flow in temporary storage areas.
