Racking Solutions / Drive-In Racking
Specification & Uses.
Drive-In Racks are the ideal equipment for storage of large amounts of the same products or long shelf life and low turnover products and is often used in low-temperature warehouses, particularly in food and pharmaceutical industries.
The main advantage of using of Drive In racks is high density shelving storage due to removing the aisles between rows. Handling equipment drives into the racking system. Pallets are installed inside the channels, which are formed with frames of pallet rack. In comparison with pallet racks, drive-in racks increase the storage area almost doubled and take 80% of the total floor space.
VARIATIONS OF DRIVE IN:
Drive-in racks are handled according to the «LIFO» principle (last in, first out) when loading and unloading of pallets are made from one end of the rack.
Drive-through racks are handled according to the «FIFO» principle (first in, first out). Pallets are loaded on a rack on one side and unloaded from the other.
