Flow-Rite - High Density Pallet Racking System
Provides High Density Storage; Combining the flexibility of Push-Back with the density of Drive-In systems, Flow Rail® is the ultimate LIFO (last-in/first-out) high density racking system for pallets. While push-back systems typically consist of lanes up to 6 pallets deep, Flow Rail® lanes can hold up to 10 pallets deep with no incline or wasted vertical space.
Increased Selectivity
Flow Rail® lets warehouse managers stock up to 10 pallets in the same lane while mixing different SKU`s in the same bay.
Unlike drive-in systems, which on average stand 40% empty because bays need to be fully emptied for effective stock rotation, Flow Rail®makes each lane independent resulting in occupancy ratios in the order of 85%. Goods can be picked individually from any level without having to empty the levels above or below.
Better Flexibility
The Flow Rail® system can store an impressive variety of products, regardless of shape or physical form. It`s an effective way to keep pace with the handling requirements of changing goods:
- It is very easy to extend or shorten the length of Flow Rail® tracks. When made longer, 100% of the existing material is reused.
- For extra wide sizes, twin-loading multiple tracks can be used. A third rail can also be added for weak pallets or very heavy loads.
- With Flow Rail®, different size and model lift trucks can be used thus eliminating the need for dimensional constraints on lift truck size for accessing drive-in bays.
Cost Effective Installation
- Flow Rail® can be installed on existing selective racks or drive-in systems.
- For new projects, roll-form could be used instead of more costly structural steel.
- The system also uses conventional fork-lift trucks.
