Drive-in General Description It's a high-density rack system for palletized storage utilizing a tunnel arrangement where loads are placed on support rails accommodating two or more pallets in depth. Since storage is on a FILO (first in last out) basis, one or more tunnels are usually dedicated to multiples of the same SKU. Application Often utilized in controlled atmosphere warehouses where high capital and operating costs justify a premium for a storage system that optimizes cube utilization Storage for large quantities of a small number of differing SKUs Typically used for very high-density storage where pallets can't be self-stacked in blocks, due to lack of stability Attributes Doesn't require specialized forklift equipment FILO system where pallets are stored and retrieved by facings in defined order Higher cost than Selective or Double Deep, but less than mechanized alternatives Not easily adjusted or reconfigured Potentially very high-density, but poorly utilized if not properly applied Restricted to uniform size pallets that must be structurally sound Throughput cycle times may increase with the tunnel depth
