» The features of drive in pallet racking

Drive-in racking, also known as drive through racking, can be used for forklifts or unmanned trucks with forks to drive into the aisle to access the goods and is suitable for storage of small varieties and large batches of goods. Drive through racking is suitable for storage of small variety and large batches of goods. Different designs can be used (with or without support bar closure at the end of the rack) to realize the good’s “first in, last out” and “first in, first out” management. Drive in racking is widely used in wholesale, cold storage, and food and tobacco industries.

Drive in pallet racking has the following advantages:

1、On the support rails, the pallets are stored in the depth direction, one right after the other, which makes high-density storage possible;

2、Goods are accessed from the same side of the warehouse rack, depositing first and then taking out, and depositing and taking first. Counterweights and reach-type forklifts can conveniently drive into the middle of the rack to access goods without occupying multiple aisles;

3、This kind of storage rack is suitable for storing large quantities and a few varieties of goods;

4、Drive through racking is densely arranged and has a higher space utilization rate.

 

Under what circumstances can you decide to use drive in pallet racking?

1、We have installed drive through racking for many cold storage applications, which requires storing as many pallets as possible in areas with limited access to expensive refrigeration equipment;

2、When you need to have seasonal goods, it will quickly help to move them out of your stock;

3、When you have large quantities and small varieties of goods stored on simple pallets, it enables “last in, first out” access to goods;

4、If you don’t need to store many varieties of goods on your racks, you can choose to use them.
