How carton live storage systems work
Carton storage racks are ideal for picking, packing and product assembly areas. They are loaded from one end and unloaded from the other ensuring the operative has a supply of goods at all times.
The concept behind these systems relies on using different types of gravity tracks positioned within a racking system at a slight decline to allow various products to move freely within the system increasing warehouse efficiency
The boxes are positioned in individual lines depending on the size of your product. The front box is positioned to allow packers easy access to the contents and for removal. Removing the front box allows gravity to take over and pushes the rest of the line towards the front and allows more rear product loading.
Live storage Rack Variations
Our flow rack systems will utilize one of the 3 gravity products below.
Skate Wheel
Light duty conveyor system which is suitable for larger products, large gaps between individual skate rollers keep the costs down making this an economical solution
Conveyor Rollers
This is the heaviest duty version available, it is suitable for larger products and containers as well as products with uneven surfaces. These allow many different shapes of products to flow due to no gaps providing the rollers sit at a tight enough pitch
Micro Tracks
The most commonly used roller track for these systems, they are ideal for small containers, boxes and totes. Usually they are installed in paired tracks at a pitch the width of the product to allow the smoothest carton flow.
We manufacture fully bespoke carton live storage solutions
No Carton live storage system is the same, so we don’t offer a one-fit carton flow storage racks solution,
we take the time to learn about your business and products and take into consideration other factors when designing your bespoke racking system such as
- The shape/size and weight of the product
- The speed of throughput
- Whether products are handled manually or by machinery
- The dimensions of the building including the heights of ceilings and available floor space
We can build specific widths & heights, add as many shelves as required and track widths or pitches to suit your product.
Our flow rack systems are usually manufactured in two variants depending on the product weight and dimensions.
Normally our shelves are set at one specific angle throughout to give the optimal decline for your products to move, however we can also utilize knuckled shelves which can be used to increase packers' visibility and access to the front package.
