When a load is detached, the next pallet slides automatically forward, perfectly accommodating FIFO inventory management.
Selective pallet racking is found in the majority of warehouses as well as distribution centers across the country… This type of storage system provides self-explanatory accessibility to all products at all times… It effectively handles a wide variety of diver stock keeping units or SKUs… Another advantageous type of system is drive-in or drive-thru racking… With this configuration, the pallet rack maximizes space by minimizing aisles! Forklift drivers are able to drive directly into the rack. This provides for storage in both height as well as depth. It is ideal for warehouses that deal with sizable amounts of similar items. With push-back pallet racking, each pallet is loaded from the front side. It is pushed back by way of the next pallet’s entry. It is a rewarding opening for LIFO inventory management; Push-back pallet racking is designed for warehouses with multiple pallets of the same product. Pallet flow racking is designed with sloping rails. It uses gravity to feed pallets from the loading side to the unloading side. When a load is detached, the next pallet slides automatically forward, perfectly accommodating FIFO inventory management. A specialized system known as cantilever racking features arms extending from a single column; Cantilever racking accommodates odd-shaped products such as plumbing pipes, sheets of drywall or lumber, and eliminating a front column allows for self-explanatory loading as well as unloading, then double-deep pallet racking allows four pallets to be stacked back-to-back. While it necessitates a deep-reach truck, it works well for storing sizable quantities of similar items. It minimizes aisle space as well as optimizes storage density.
