Mobile Rack Systems - Pallet Racks or Something Else? |
Posted: November 20, 2020 |
A mobile rack system is probably the most popular type of density storing, with the help of a forklift to get to the products. Its capacity usage rate can reach up to over 85% with minimum effort. The mobile rack system includes a platform (or rack), tracks (or wheeled device), and motor. All this helps to distribute the load to various points on the rack.
In most cases, portable racks are used to transport goods or materials from one place to another. The portable racks are built up around an empty or partially-filled pallet. This is so that a forklift can easily be driven to the point where the goods are loaded. The forklift then reaches down to the surface and lifts the heavy goods to the truck bed. The pallets can also be driven in a similar way, making the forklift reach the truck bed.
Portable rack systems are ideal for transporting goods that cannot be stored in a warehouse permanently. For instance, a forklift driver may find it difficult to transport a heavy piece of furniture from the garage to the main floor. The portable rack system allows the forklift truck to easily drive to the main floor. However, the forklift has to take care not to damage the wall or floors. If the forklift does damage the floors, the forklift driver may have to be pulled out from his vehicle and the damaged floor can have to be repaired. This is very expensive and time-consuming. Hence the portable racks are ideal for the temporary transport of goods in warehouses.
In addition, mobile rack systems are used in the loading dock for the same reason - they help in easy loading and unloading. The trucks with portable racks do not need to stop in order to load the items. They can move along with the trucks.
Mobile rack systems are commonly used for temporary purposes in the market place such as storage of stock. They are ideal for people who work in the market area. They are used for storing the stock that is either not needed for immediate consumption or is meant for long term storage.
The mobile rack systems have been found to be the best solution for the storage of stock that is difficult to store in a warehouse due to its low cost, portability, high availability, and easy to use. There are different types of mobile rack systems in the marketplace. One such mobile system for the market is the roller type, which allows easy loading and unloading. Other types are the wire type which has to be manually opened. These types of mobile racks need to be operated manually by the people using them. The rack system works in such a way that it can be placed almost anywhere.
