How to Achieve High Density Storage with Push Back Pallet Racks
With push back pallet racks you can have a high-density, multiple products storage which make the most of your storage area and provides easy selectivity. This will help to make storage simpler and easier to retrieve products in warehouses and distribution centers.
Two, three, four or five pallets deep is what this type of system can store. Stocking and picking the pallets from the same aisle is made easier. This uses the last-in/first-out rotation system which helps minimize the space required to stock. To gain idea about pallet racking, visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pallet_racking.
It works in the following way. Carrying the pallet loads, trolleys travel on rolling rails in each level. These rails are made inclining slightly, lower at the front so that the trolleys or the pallet loads roll forward due to gravity, when the pallet in front of the aisle is removed.
The level or pallet racking is made up of two or three parallel trolleys of differing heights.
By means of forklift, the first pallet is lifted on the highest trolley.
When the second pallet is ready to be loaded, the forklift pushes the first pallet onto the next set of trolleys.
If the system has pallet loads up to 5 deep, then the process is repeated until the last pallet rests on the rolling rails instead of the trolleys.
Pallet flow pallet racks do come with features and benefits.
The advantage of this system is seen if your operation involves stocking 2 or more pallets of medium turnover products with the same SKU.
Improvement in inventory control in seen because the levels contain the same product SKU.
The amount of space that this system uses allows for very little height space waste.
Product damage is decreased significantly because they are stored up off the floor thus reducing the amount of times a load is handled.
The result in the reduction of maneuvering time is reduced labor costs.
The Pallet flow Pallet Racks Systems contain the following primary components: upright frames, front, middle, and top beams, rails, trolleys, trolley controls, rail supports, safety devices, leveling plates, and anchors.
If your product mix consists of 2 or more pallets of medium turnover products with the same SKU, then Push Back Pallet Racks from http://appliednw.com/push-back-pallet-racking/ is the best system for you if you want a high density, compact storage system. You can ask your material handling product export regarding the options you can have on this. If you need help in designing the system that will work for you then they are the best ones to ask. Saving on money and time will depend on how you can maximize your space which you can find out for yourself by the design that will be created for you.
