Description
Drive-in racking is another way of improving space utilisation compared to conventional pallet racking. This is achieved by largely dispensing with aisles. Drive-in racking is particularly effective for storing large quantities of the same article since access to individual pallets is difficult. Drive-in racking provides much the same storage density as bulk storage but provides more stability for the goods.
Standard components of Drive-in racking system form an ideal basis for drive-in racking and with strut widths up to 140mm drive-in racking can also be used in high warehouses.
Important features
- The connectors are simply engaged into the frames and can be adjusted in height every 50mm.
- Every channel can be set at a specific height.
- The connectors support the runners which guarantee that the pallets are placed in precisely the correct position.
Drive-in racking can be divided basically into three different types depending on the application:
- Racks served from one side
- Racks served from both sides
- Drive-through racks.
While racks that are served from one or two sides operate on the LIFO (last-in, first -out) principle, Drive-through racks operate on the FIFI (first-in, first-out) basis. Guide rails installed in the floor for forklift trucks protect the racking.
