High bay pallet storage and handling is a major part of an overall integrated warehouse system. Combined with well-structured computerised logistics management, picking speeds and density of stock become very accurate and fast.
As these systems can be fully automated there is normally no requirement for heating, lighting or operational staff within the warehouse.
As stacker cranes are fitted with telescopic forks, ‘top hats’ are normally required to permit pallet/load accessibility.
Individual accessibility is excellent, with immediate access to any given pallet location, stock rotation is again extremely good and can only be improved with the use of a more specialised storage application.
