Basic advantages of the system
- optimum utilisation of floor space,
surface gains can be as high as 50%
- storage volume increases by up to 100%
- direct access to all pallets
- aisle width can be adapted at any time as requested
- closed racking aisles prevent unauthorised access
Mobile pallet racking is ideal for an average size to broad product range, however stocked in small quantities per order line with a low to medium picking frequency. The installation consists of pallet racking which is mounted onto a mobile base construction.
In general, manoeuvring of the individual racking units is done with electric motors.
Whereas formerly, mobile pallet racking was exclusively used as buffer store or for slow movers, it is now - thanks to today's innovative steering technology - equally suited for products with a higher picking frequency.
Intelligent steering technology not only allows to open one broad aisle for truck servicing, but can instead open several narrow aisles for manual picking by order pickers.
Further gains as to space and travel routes can be realised by closing the loading aisle between two carton live storage runs after replenishment while fully maintaing the FiFo-principle. |
