In today's logistics and warehousing field, there are many types and forms of storage shelves. In recent years, shuttle shelves have been favored by enterprises. It is composed of shelves and shuttles, constituting a dense storage racking system, which belongs to semi-automatic storage shelves. The biggest feature of this shelf is that it realizes automatic storage and retrieval of goods and makes full use of warehouse space. Those who are familiar with the shuttle rack know that it has a very high utilization of space. So, how does it work?
Compared with other shelves, shuttle shelves reduce the forklift aisle and adopt a side-by-side design, which enables more shelves to be placed in the same warehouse area. The increase in the depth of the cargo space greatly improves the space utilization, which is one of the reasons for the very high space utilization rate of the shuttle racks.
Due to the structural design of shuttle shelves, each row of shelves can be designed with more cargo depths. Because the shuttle rack uses a shuttle car to access the goods, each track can achieve 35 cargo location depths, and the drive-in shelves of similar structure can only reach a maximum of 7 cargo location depths in one direction, and the two-way outbound can only be controlled at most about 14 cargo location depths.
In addition to the high utilization of space, shuttle racks are also excellent in terms of cargo management. The use of shuttles can sort out and count the palletized goods on the track according to the instructions such as inventory and sorting, which greatly reduces the management cost. The above is an introduction to how shuttle shelves can achieve high space utilization, I hope to help you quickly understand shuttle shelves.
