Understanding Pallet Flow Rack

Pallet flow rack is a dynamic storage system tailored for high-density warehouse applications. It operates on the principle of gravity-fed movement, relying on pitched flow rails to advance pallets from a load side to the opposite picking aisle. The system accommodates pallet storage lanes from 2-20+ deep, making it one of the most high-density rack options. The compact design not only maximizes storage space but also enhances inventory control and facilitates efficient inventory flow.
M-Compare: Your Strategic Advantage
M-Compare goes beyond traditional estimation tools by leveraging customer-supplied data to compare the cost and space requirements of pallet flow rack against other leading storage systems. Here’s how it works:
- Customized Analysis: Using variables such as building size, pallet specifications, and operational costs, M-Compare generates detailed comparisons tailored to your warehouse environment.
- Industry-Norm Data: We compare pallet flow rack against industry-standard storage systems such as selective, double-deep, push-back, drive-in, and very narrow aisle (VNA) systems. This ensures that you receive accurate insights based on established benchmarks.
- Cost Analysis: Factors like storage speed, travel time, labor costs, and building expenses are meticulously calculated to provide a holistic view of each storage medium’s operational cost.
