Lane Capacities
Speed and precision play a pivotal role in warehouse and distribution center operations. Proper product flow is essential to improving supply chain efficiency and keeping your workers’ stress and strain to a minimum. Knowing your lane capacity allows proper configuration and maximum productivity, with your product flowing the pick points right on time.
FlexTrak lanes over 10’ 0” in length require an intermediate support beam.
Please note that the longest span will dictate the lane capacity.
Maximum 40 lbs/ft for 18” bf lanes.
FlexTrak Applications
Focus more on your customers and less on your products with the fluidity offered by FlexTrak. Change configurations to flow with your needs with seasonal products, dynamic slotting, e-commerce or high-turnover SKU applications. Our experts will help you optimize performance and productivity for maximum profit.
Options
Our first step is to understand your inventory requirements. Are your carton sizes consistent or do they vary by SKU? Do SKUs, carton types and sizes change frequently? Is system re-slotting a concern? With these answers, choosing your options is a snap.
Design Your Solution
We help many different industries determine what kind of storage equipment is ideal for their product mix and operational needs. Obviously, there are a whole host of options from the simple to the complex.
We will help you determine the best mix to keep your business booming by noticing the elephant in the room. Evaluation of the height of your shelf openings in flow rack is a good place to start. If some cases are taller than others, it causes difficulty for pickers reaching into them. In the meantime, lower profile cartons have copious amounts of wasted space between them and the next level. To maximize your system’s capacity, consider grouping cartons of similar sizes together, or regularly reconfiguring your carton flow beam spacing to fit the current inventory profile.
