Multi-level pick tower

stowshelf® is a modular and versatile shelving solution developed for hand-loaded light to medium-duty storage, up to 250 kg/shelf. Multi-tier installations are also available as the frame can take loads of up to 5500 kg.

The frame comprises two shelving uprights and a frame bracing system. The rectangular side holes in the uprights allow mounting of the shelf clips at a pitch of 25 mm. The round holes are for bolting or riveting of the various kinds of bracing systems.

Multi-tier shelving

The shelves: a unique design

  • The length of the shelf corresponds with most types of cartons and plastic containers.
  • The box-shaped edge will not twist under load.
  • The front profile is ideal for fixing labels.
  • The short side of the shelf is triple folded.
  • The double folded corners, which are clinched, give a high rigidity and high resistance against impact loads.
  • The edges are not sharp, avoiding injuries.
  • The shelves are perforated every 53 mm, allowing shelf dividers to be mounted.

Industrial shelving solutions

stowshelf® can be applied in many environments. As a traditional shelving system; high-rise shelving, or a multi-tier installation. For manually picking goods or as part of an automated central store. The new stowshelf system was completely redesigned for the E-commerce industry and has become the go-to storage solution for picktowers.

Multitier flooring systems

Both, stowshelf® and Minirack® can be equipped with floors and stairs to create multi-tier applications. Two types of flooring systems are commonly used: either intermediate walkways, floor-over systems or a combination of both. For normal walkways a uniformly distributed load of 350 kg/m² is generally used. For hand- operated trucks or for storage of goods other load capacities may be specified (500 to 1000 kg/m²).

Floor decking

In general a wooden decking or a grating floor is applied. The wooden decking is a high-density chipboard, with a white finish at the underside and optionally an anti-slip coating at the upper side.
