Pushback

General Description

It's a medium to high-density pallet storage system utilizing a series of nesting carriers gliding in a sloping channel rail supported by a pallet rack framework.

Pushback lanes are typically two to six pallets deep. One or more lanes are usually dedicated to multiples of the same SKU, since storage is on a FILO (first in last out) basis.

Application

  • Can be used in dry storage, freezers and coolers
  • Medium to high-density storage for multiple like-item pallets
  • Medium volume throughput to accommodate multiple differing SKUs
  • Used to increase picking efficiency

Attributes

  • Can be retrofitted to drive-in or double deep pallet rack systems to accommodate an increased number of differing SKUs or to improve case picking efficiency
  • Doesn't require specialized forklift
  • Faster cycle times than drive-in systems, especially when compared to deep tunnels
  • FILO inventory system
  • Higher capital cost than static high-density alternatives
  • Loads index automatically: Forklifts don't have to enter the system, but provide braking force as pallets are placed into or removed from storage
  • Offers medium to high-density storage that can be configured in blocks of varying lane depths two to six deep
  • Reduced potential for pallet rack damage when compared to drive-in systems
