Mobile racks or sliding storage rack systems, offer several advantages that can significantly enhance storage efficiency and operations within a warehouse or storage facility.
Mobile racks eliminate the need for permanent aisles between static racking units. By placing mobile racks on rails embedded in the floor, you can create a single access aisle that moves powered by an electric motor, granting access to various shelving bays as needed. This allows you to store more products within the same warehouse footprint compared to traditional static shelving.
With mobile racks, you can quickly move the rack to the desired storage bay, minimising travel time and expediting picking and retrieval processes. This can significantly improve overall warehouse productivity and efficiency.
