High-Density Customizable Radio Shuttle Racking System for Warehouse Storage

Radio shuttle pallet racking system is a semi-automatic storage and retrieval solution that maintain maximum selectivity and enhance your operational efficiency at the same time. It can be easily managed with a remote control to reduce the number of aisles and make the best use of the warehouse's available space.

Forklifts are in charge of carrying pallets to the entrance of lanes in the radio shuttle pallet rack system. As for the transportation in the inner system, it is done by shuttle carts through radio and operated through remote control.

Features and Advantages of Radio Shuttle Pallet Racking System

How does the radio shuttle pallet rack work?

This semi-automated solution consists of a combination of components of conventional pallet racking and drive-in system, operated by a shuttle truck that moves the loading units within the channels. The shuttle is controlled via a remote control, is transported by a lift truck, and deposited on the level and row required.

Once the shuttle is positioned with the loading unit on it, it lifts the pallet and moves it into the channel. Using sensors and readers, the pallet is positioned in the right spot. This operation prevents the lift truck from driving into the racking, as is the case with drive-in racking systems.

The rails are supported on the racking structure and secured on the beams. The structure is dimensioned taking into account the weight of the shuttle car and the own forces caused by the movement and displacement of the loading unit within the racking.

Applications of Radio Shuttle Pallet Racking System

Applications with multiple pallets of storage for each SKU, for example:

• High volume SKUs

• The first point of storage after manufacturing

• Work in process

• Product produced and held for quality testing

• Sites that have a reasonably high turnover - greater than 5 times per year

• Facilities running out of space

• Storage layouts where deep lane storage is the best option
