Structural Characteristics

Very Narrow Aisle racking, or VNA racking, refers to regular long span shelving systems that use three-way forklifts.Comparing to regular pallet racking systems, the aisle width of VNA racking systems are much smaller, usually at around 1600-2000mm, improving space utilization by about 20%.Guided rails have to be fitted on the sides of the aisles so that three-way forklifts can operate.

Drive-in Racking

Introduction

Drive-in racking is a racking system that is not separated by aisles.The continuous block of racking allows high density storage.Drive-in racking is suitable for storing a large amount of similar loads, especially for big lots of the same type of goods.With high utilization of space, this type of racking is relatively less costly for industries with expensive storage space, such as food and garments.

Structural Characteristics

Drive-in racking offer the biggest storage with the smallest available space. It is particularly suitable for storing goods with standard units, and is widely used in industries with fast movement of a large amount but a small variety of goods. Goods can be placed or picked up from the same side, or retrieved according to the first-in-first-out requirements, stocking up from one side and picked up from the other. Drive-in racking is a commonly used high density racking, utilizing 50% more of space than ordinary pallet racking. It is suitable for small variety but large amount type of storage. The racking is usually for last-in-first-out storage and suitable for goods with high circulation. Forklifts drive in to the rack aisles to place or pick out pallets.

Push-Back Racking

Introduction

Using a combination of rails and tray carts, as well as the goods’ own weight, push-back racking is a last-in-first-out storage suitable for large amount of similar loads.With high space utilization, push-back racking handles goods according to the last-in-first-out principle, putting trays (or material boxes) onto nested carts, and pushing preceding goods back.Carts ride on inclined rails.When goods are removed from the outer side, carts in the inside will roll down gently. Placement and retrieval are done on the same side.Cars can be colour coded for easy visual inventory.

Structural Characteristics

Push-back racking is made up of upright beams, crossbeams, rails, and carts. Rails are inclined at a certain angle and secured on the crossbeams of the rack. Carts ride on the rails.The entire structure follows the “cartridge clip” principle, placing the trays onto the carts so that the carts can be placed into the inner part of the racks. Forklifts do not need to enter the inner part of the racks, but are operated just like ordinary allocation and racking. As the depth of the rack can be designed to accommodate allocation of multiple trays, push-back racking has a higher space utilization than ordinary racking.With safety and circulation rate much higher than continuous racking, push-back racking are widely used in industries such as cold storage, books and electronics.

  • Sliding carts that carry goods can be installed onto each level of the rack.
  • A single row can be installed with 3 carts (4 pallets).
  • Each pallet allocation has a maximum load of 2000Kg.
  • Carts automatically go back to their original positions and they glide with stability

 

Live Storage Racking

Introduction

Live storage racking is first-in-first-out storage: goods are placed from an inclination slope by fixed direction rollers; they glide themselves gravitationally, and are retrieved from the low end.Placement and retrieval are quick and convenient. Live storage racking is suitable situations such as production assembly line, pharmaceutical, electronics, supermarket distribution centres, etc.

Structural Characteristics

Live storage racking uses the same upright beam design, but their dimensions and strengths are designed according to different loading requirement so as to achieve optimal configuration. At the centre of the upright beams are reinforcing ribs to ensure safe loading. The front end connection of the shelving’s crossbeams uses a U-shape design to ensure secure connection in the assembly of crossbeams, upright beams and reinforcing ribs. Using pallets as a basis, trays are placed on an inclined slope. When goods on the first tray are picked up, goods on the next tray will roll down to the retrieval point. With floor space utilization of up to 70%, This type of racking is especially suitable for large circulation of goods; both first-in-first-out and last-in-first-out storage are possible. Best & Prestige Co., Ltd., BPS’s Shanghai Office, can provide clients with comprehensive design solutions on Live storage racking.
