Converts static racking into carton flow
June 1st 2010 Adapta-Flow is a carton live storage
innovation, from BITO Storage
Systems which can be retrofitted to
an existing static racking structure to
convert it into carton flow racking by
using the racking's beams. Using
Adapta-Flow companies order
picking from pallets can quickly start
to order pick from live storage levels.
Adapta-Flow is compatible with
all types of pallet racking and can be
used with either single or double
deep systems to provide First-In,
First Out (FIFO) storage.
Ready-mounted modules drop
onto the beams of the existing
racking. This means that flow lanes on
each level can be configured quickly
and easily to suit the needs of the
application and they can be easily
modified at any time to adapt to
changing business needs: the modules
can even be easily removed to return
the racking to its original state.
This is particularly useful for
seasonal trends such as for companies
servicing the Christmas market.
The Adapta-Flow racks turn a
static pallet racking system into one
that offers reduced pick travel routes
and times through compact and clear
presentation of stock items. The flow
racks enhance control of sell-by dates
and production batches while the
dense storage characteristics of the
flow lanes allow more product lines to
be stored at the pick face. More articles from BITO Storage Systems Ltd: |
