Finite available space is a common warehousing challenge faced across many industries. When constructing new distribution centers or adding on to existing facilities, corporations are looking to get the most out of every inch of available space. Cold Facts’ March-April 2017 Edition tackles just this subject in “New Racking System? Think Future Needs and Latest Technology” (Cold Facts Membership Required to View Online) featuring Frazier President, Carlos Oliver, on using Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) counts as a basis for choosing the proper system to maximize space.
Frazier’s Pallet Mole is highlighted in the article as one of the latest innovative technologies available in the racking industry and the solution of choice for Nor-Am based upon their high volume of a single SKU. The Pallet Mole runs underneath the pallet loads on rails, delivering and extracting pallets within a deep lane rack system. Working in either FIFO or LIFO applications, the Pallet Mole significantly improves throughput by indexing loads directly to the first pallet position at the aisle face.
