Things to Know About Push-back Pallet Racking
System
2
Push-back pallet racking system is an
accumulative storage system that allows up to
four pallets deep to be stored per level.
3
All the pallets of each level, except the top
one, are placed on a set of trolleys that are
pushed along rolling rails.
4
Push-back racking is a type of pallet storage
system that allows pallets to be stored on both
sides of an aisle, providing higher density
storage than other rack systems.
5
A push-back rack system is a LIFO system, which
is normally composed of an inclined rail section
that extends the full depth of the storage lane.
6
Working of push-back pallet racks
7
With a push-back pallet racking system, a
forklift will place the pallets on nested carts
that move along inclined rails.
8
Each pallet is pushed back by the next pallet,
which brings out the next cart. When the forklift
removes products, it takes the front pallet
first.
9
This enables the pallets on the carts behind the
first pallet to roll toward the front of the rack.
10
The carts create an easy system for stocking and
picking. The push-back system utilizes product
rather than aisles to fill the storage space.
11
Main features of push-back pallet racks
12
They have linked carts, which helps to eliminate
the possibility of a load being stranded and
suddenly rolling out of control.
13
There are also serrated pallet grips that allow
imperfect placement of pallets by grabbing the
underside of the pallet ensuring that the load
remains properly positioned on the cart.
14
They also provide a very low profile as the
industry's lowest stack height can measure 6'' on
a 6-deep pallet rack system.
15
The welded rail frame means the rails are
permanently aligned at the factory to prevent
field misalignment and costly maintenance.
16
Advantages of push-back pallet racks
17
The push-back rack offers more versatile storage
because each lane flows independently and
vertical storage operates separately from the
underneath lanes.
18
They have such a provision that even the carts
that are used in the system prevent jamming and
damage to products.
19
Push-back pallet racks are especially useful if
you have a SKU (individual products) stored on
multiple pallets because you can store these
pallets anywhere from two to six pallets deep.
20
These racks are utilized in high-density storage
because they can store a lot of products while
still enabling rotation of your products.
