In modern warehouse management, the combined use of turnover boxes and shelves can significantly improve efficiency and space utilization. But facing many types of shelves, how to choose the most suitable "partner" for the turnover box? As an experienced shelf company employee, today I will explain several mainstream solutions in detail!
Live Storage Rack - The First Choice for Efficient Sorting
The inclined roller track design, combined with the turnover box, can realize the automatic sliding of goods to the front end. This structure is naturally adapted to the "first-in, first-out" principle, and is especially suitable for material flow scenarios in production lines or assembly lines. For example, electronic component factories often use it to achieve rapid replenishment of accessories and reduce manual handling steps. Its dynamic storage characteristics allow the materials in the turnover box to flow smoothly like an assembly line, making it the best choice for pursuing timeliness.
Beam Rack - Heavy Duty Goods Buster
When the turnover box carries heavy items (such as mechanical parts, chemical raw materials), the beam rack, which is mainly made of steel structure, shows super load-bearing capacity. The multi-layer adjustable design can not only stack standard-sized turnover boxes, but also flexibly cope with different height requirements. Many manufacturing companies use this type in their raw material warehouses, which can form a three-dimensional storage network with forklift operations, greatly increasing the storage capacity per unit area.
Drive-in Rack - A Powerful Tool for Batch Storage
For products with a small variety and large batches with high turnover rates, the through-channel design allows forklifts to directly drive into the rack to store and retrieve goods. This type of rack is especially suitable for the entire pallet operation of uniform-sized turnover boxes, which is common in FMCG distribution centers. By reducing the space occupied by channels, the storage density is improved compared with traditional racks, which is very suitable for seasonal stocking or centralized management of hot-selling products.
Key Selection Tips
1️⃣ Matching load characteristics: Light plastic turnover boxes can be selected for live storage racks; metal materials or full load conditions should give priority to beam racks;
2️⃣ Planning the flow line logic: Use live storage racks to speed up high-frequency picking areas, and use drive-in racks to reduce costs for low-frequency bulk goods;
3️⃣ Standardization first: Try to unify the size of the turnover box (length × width × height) to facilitate precise adjustment of the rack layer spacing;
4️⃣ Expansion reserve: Consider the possibility of rack splicing when future business grows.
Reasonable matching of turnover boxes and shelf types can not only make the warehouse bid farewell to clutter, but also improve storage efficiency. It is recommended that companies conduct combined tests based on actual cargo characteristics, inbound and outbound frequency, and site conditions to find their own optimal solution!
