PUSH-BACK PALLET RACKING
GOODS FLOW ACCORDING TO THE LIFO PRINCIPLE
PUSH-BACK pallet racking is an accumulative storage system that is a simplified version of flow pallet racking. The difference is that PUSH-BACK racking operates on the LIFO principle (last in, first out) as the racking is operated from one side only, i.e. the loading zone is also the unloading zone.
ADVANTAGES OF PUSH-BACK RACKING:
- optimum use of available space by reducing the number of aisles required to operate the racking (one aisle)
- very high storage capacity thanks to accumulation storage
- high labour productivity – saving time when handling pallets, shortening transport distances
- possibility of storing different goods on each level
- can be used in cold stores and freezers (down to -25˚C)
The solution is designed for:
- warehouses with medium inventory turnover
- goods that can be stored according to the LIFO principle
- buffer zones, e.g. for production
PUSH-BACK racking is similar to flow racking except that in this system the racking is operated from one side only (loading and unloading of pallets). Loading is based on the principle of pushing the pallet with a forklift truck into a rack slot (roller track). When the first pallet is removed, the deeper stored units are released and move by gravity along the roller track to the loading/unloading area. The system can store up to 9 pallet load units in the nest.
