Best Storage Rack Guide
Racking isn't just steel beams but rather the solution to optimize production efficiency. Work efficiency of material flow increases through the requirement-specific design of the racking system since these racks are designed to occupy less area and optimise space. Shree Mahalaxmi steel industries cater to a very high level of customization as the racks have to be crafted based on the need and requirements of that specific client. The products manufactured at industrial storage racks manufacturers in Delhi are in compliance with the set industry norms and our quality controllers keep a check on the whole manufacturing process. The team of professionals at Shree Mahalaxmi ensure the quality of raw material procured is from the most authentic vendors, further checked at the laboratory only after that it is forwarded to the manufacturing unit. Prior to dispatch, all equipment is checked at the testing unit to ensure its ability to meet client standards and requirements.
Key steps to selecting storage racks
o First and foremost,
examine the space to find if it requires shelving or racking. Generally, for
large areas like warehouses, industrial racking is a suitable option. They are also
useful when product flow is high or there are mammoth items stored.
o Evaluate the type of storage racks that will best fit the space. The fitting solution can be a combination of styles as warehouse racking needn’t be limited to one size or type.
Which type of storage rack to use for a
particular warehouse?
To maximise the space on a shop floor or
warehouse, you must explore all the options available. The factors to be
considered must include the following:
o What
is the product flow?
o What
is the total storage area possible? (include elevation in this number)
o What
SKUs will be stored?
o Will
they be stored on pallets?
o Will
there be a need for machines like forklifts?
o What
is the environment of the storage space? (E.g., freezer, dry, humid)
Types of Storage Racks are available at industrial storage racks manufacturers in Faridabad, Delhi and other NCRs.
1.
Carton
Flow Rack -Ideal for products that
I.
Come with expiration dates
II.
Differ in size
III.
Need cold storage or freezers
o They are
highly customisable, making them perfect for distribution centres that have
high volume case-pick or piece-pick operations.
o They
allow the product to slide from the loading aisle (back) of the rack to the
picking aisle (front) with the help of gravity.
o Carton
flow racks also have brakes to control speed making offloading and on loading
easy.
2.
Selective
Pallet Rack – Ideal for access to all products simultaneously especially useful
for those centres that have steady product circulation. Front loads and unloads
the pallets from the front is possible in these kinds of racks
3.
Push
Back Rack - Based on
LIFO inventory management – last in, first out, these racking solutions are
excellent for high-density storage as they reduce the aisle area required by
the warehouse. This helps to increase the storage space available and is
customisable by heavy-duty racks manufacturers in Noida. Push back racks
are best employed when:
o Several
groups of items need to be accessed at the same time
o A
cold-storage environment like freezers is needed.
o Push back racks
are capable of supporting carts which move on inclined rails.
4. Pallet Flow Rack – They look similar
to carton flow racks but are designed for a much larger inventory movement. The
wheels on the racks automatically glide the items from the back to the front,
allowing fast movement of inventory. The brakes ensure that the speed is always
in control. Based on the FIFO
product management concept, they are perfect for:
o Materials
with different sizes
o F&B
storage
o Products
with quick expiration dates
o Freezer storage
5.
Drive In & Drive Through Rack – The best
solution for the products stored are homogeneous and massive quantities. Forklifts
or lift trucks enter the front of the rack to load or unload a product. While
drive-through racks are definitely more convenient, an additional aisle is
necessary. They are also beneficial when:
o The item
has a long lifespan
o The item needs to be moved only one-time
The storage racking system serves as the fundamental framework of all operations. The choice and utility requirement of any business establishment can make the storage racks become the ideal solution for space and last for an extended time. Storageracks manufacturers in Sonipat deliver quality stainless steel storage racks for all your industrial and commercial needs across India.
