Live (or dynamic) storage provides first in first out stock rotation whilst achieving good space utilisation. However consideration needs to be given to a consistent high quality base pallet for optimum efficiency.
- Pallets loaded onto inclined roller tracks.
- 100% Goods rotation.
- Conventional trucks can be used. Provides up to 70% improved usage over conventional racking.
- Used when stock rotation is paramount.
- This system is designed so that the first pallet in is the first pallet out (FIFO).
- The system utilises standard racking but includes an inclined roller conveyor track.
- A pallet is loaded into the back face & under gravity rolls forward.
- The conveyor sections are designed to suit the pallet size & weight.
- The rollers are mounted in channels or angle section & can be full width or multi-track.
- A variation of this is push-back storage where the pallets are loaded & retrieved from the front face.
