Pallet Racking Shuttle System
The Pallet Racking Shuttle system is a versatile, high-density storage solution designed to automate the handling of heavy pallets within a racking framework. This system is ideal for warehouses aiming to maximize storage space, enhance operational efficiency, and reduce manual intervention.
Key Features
High-Density Storage: Maximizes floor space by reducing the need for aisles. Pallets are stored deeper within racks, allowing for more compact storage.
Automated Shuttle Movement: Shuttles travel along rails to load and retrieve pallets without requiring forklifts in aisles, reducing handling time and optimizing workflow.
Mobile Application Control: The shuttle system can be controlled remotely via a mobile app, enabling real-time monitoring and quick adjustments from anywhere in the warehouse. This feature boosts flexibility and convenience for operators.
Heavy Load Capacity: The shuttle system can handle loads up to 2500 kg, making it suitable for storing large, heavy items.
Compatibility with Multiple Pallet Sizes: Designed to work with various pallet types, including industrial and euro pallets, offering flexibility for different storage needs.
FIFO and LIFO Compatible: The system supports First-In, First-Out (FIFO) and First-In, Last-Out (FILO) configurations, allowing it to adapt to specific inventory and turnover requirements.
Benefits
Space Optimization: The shuttle system makes optimal use of space, enabling a higher density of stored pallets while keeping operations smooth.
Enhanced Safety: By minimizing forklift movement within racks, it reduces the risk of accidents and protects both inventory and personnel.
Cost Savings: The automated operation cuts down on labor and energy costs, reducing the need for frequent forklift operations and lowering overall expenses.
Versatile Applications: Useful across various industries, from cold storage and distribution centers to manufacturing, the system is adaptable for different types of inventory and warehouse requirements.
Typical Applications
Cold Storage: Ideal for maximizing limited space in temperature-controlled environments.
Distribution Centers: Increases throughput and facilitates faster product movement.
Manufacturing Warehouses: Supports efficient storage and retrieval of raw materials or finished goods.
E-commerce Fulfillment: Perfect for high turnover warehouses where quick access to goods is essential.
How It Works
Loading: A forklift places a pallet onto the shuttle at the entry point. The shuttle, controlled via mobile app or remote device, transports it to the designated storage position.
Retrieval: When retrieval is needed, the shuttle brings the pallet to the front of the rack, where it’s easily accessible by forklift.
FIFO/FILO: Pallets can be organized in either FIFO or FILO mode depending on the storage strategy and needs.
