Drive-In racking is used where high-density storage
is required.
It is frequently used in
facilities with a low number of product lines.
Pallets are stored in a
block system with a reduced number of aisles.
Fork-lifts drive into the
racking between uprights to load or retrieve pallets. The first pallet in
is the last one out.
High-density storage with
minimal aisle space allowing maximum cubic storage space.
Drive-In Racking is ideal
for;
Bulk Storage.
Cold storage
applications - to store as many pallets in as little expensive freezer
space as possible.
A large amount of
similar items that can be stored in a single pallet position and
accessed last-in, first-out.
Seasonal items that
move quickly out of your inventory.
If you don't store a
wide variety of loads in the rack.
Easily damaged or
fragile loads, which cannot be block stacked.
Drive-In Racks allow a
forklift to enter the rack from one side to pick up or pull out pallets.
This is done because pallets can slide backwards on a continuous rail.
Forklifts drive into the
rack to access pallets.
This is a last-in,
first-out arrangement for your pallets. Drive-In Racking can be used by any
forklift trucks.
Self centring rails
automatically position pallets quickly and safely.
This ensures that pallets
are presented correctly to the operator, promoting safe handling, ease of
use and reducing damage to the rails and uprights.
Drive-In Racking offers
the ability to store a large amount of similar loads in a smaller area.
Selectivity is
sacrificed, but storage density is outstanding.
Drive-In Racking can
store up to 75% more pallets in the same space than selective racking. It
requires fewer aisles and has better cubic storage.
