Racking systems ensure optimization of floor space, good utilization of the available warehouse volume, compact storage etc. To control your complete material flow process. We can supply following for your project:
- Selective racking system – most common type of warehouse racking; it has the lowest pallet storage capacity, but is also the lowest cost per square meter of racking and has the most flexibility.
- Double racking system – is similar to selective racking, but pallets are now stored two rows deep instead of one. This type of racking therefore requires special pallet handling equipment.
- VNA (Very Narrow Aisle) – the space separating parallel rack units is greatly reduced, and pallets are placed and retrieved using a side loading fork truck. This minimizes the size of the aisles between rows of racks and can reduce the aisle space by around 40%.
- Drive-In racking system – Drive-In racking involves the forklift entering the racking from one side to load or retrieve the pallets which are stored more deeply. Product is rotated in a Last-In, First-Out inventory manner because of the single entry/exit point.
- Drive-Thru racking system – has a separate entry/exit point. With Drive-Thru rack product is rotated in a FIFO method which makes it more suitable for pallets that are date-sensitive. The first pallet loaded on the rail system will be the first pallet removed from the opposite end of the system.
- Gravity Pallet Flow Racking System – employs the use of conveyor rollers of the highest quality complete with entry guides, pallet separator, brake rollers and end-stops. Suitable for use in cold rooms, this system offers FlFO operation and high density storage.
- Mobile racking system – allows opening and closing of the aisles. Mobile racking enables compact storage while keeping the stored pallets individually accessible. Where storage space is expensive, for example in Cold stores, mobile racking is the perfect solution. Each mobile racking and storage system will increase capacity with 80% compared to conventional pallet racking systems.
- Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS) – computer controlled systems with extreme accuracy consist of a variety of computer-controlled systems for automatically placing and retrieving loads from defined storage locations. With AS/RS you maximizing available storage space in existing structures, avoid off-site storage and expansions, minimize overall building footprint up to 50% versus conventional warehouses, reduce energy costs by 40% in cooler environments, reduce labor and product damage costs, increase inventory accuracy and customer service.
