Products & services
Clad Rack Building
Clad Rack warehouses are any type of storage system in which the shelving facility is part of the building structure, thereby avoiding the need for the civil works of a conventional building. For this type of warehouse, the shelving facility not only supports the load of the stored goods, but also the load of the building envelope, as well as external actions, such as wind and snow. Most clad rack buildings are automatic systems (AS/RS) using robotic equipment for handling loads.
AR PAL - Adjustable Pallet Racking
The Adjustable Pallet Racking system (APR) is designed to store pallets in a mechanical and functional way using forklifts. These forklifts access goods through aisles parallel to the racks. The use of adjustable pallet racks is a logistical solution which can be adapted to the dimensions of the unit loads and the forklifts. Efficient, resistant, easy-to-assemble, and with simple load level regulation, this system adapts to any type of product, both by weight and by volume. These systems can be adapted for picking. Depending on the handling equipment SIN, two types of system can be offered: · APR system for Class 400 (Conventional Racking System) · APR system for Class 300 or VNA Pallet Racking for Very Narrow Aisle forklift trucks The APR storage system is dimensioned according to both the European regulations in force and FEM (European Materials Handling Federation) recommendations.
AR DRIVE IN - High density storage solution
The Drive in Racking System is a high density storage solution that maximizes available space and height in the warehouse by reducing the forklift operating aisles. It is made up of an easy-to-assemble and -reset modular structure, which makes it easy to maintain. Compact racking can be either Drive in racking, with only one access aisle, where the last load in is the first one out, or Drive through racking, with an entrance and exit, where the first load in is the first one out. It is the optimal and most common pallet storage system when you need to store homogeneous products with a large number of pallets of the same reference. This compact system is appropriate where space utilisation is more important than selectivity of stored loads.
AR LIVE STORAGE - Live pallet racking FIFO
Live Pallet Racking system (AR Live Storage FIFO) is ideal for warehouses where stock turnover control and space saving are critical. The Live Pallet Racking compact structure uses slightly inclined roller beds on each level to allow unit loads to be moved more easily. AR Racking offers two types of live pallet racks: This system uses the FIFO (first in, first out) method, where the loading area is at the opposite end of the unloading area and the goods are transported through this space thanks to the roller beds that form a rail with an incline. As a complement to Live Pallet Racking FIFO there is also Push-Back Racking LIFO which uses the LIFO system (last in, first out) and therefore has a single loading and unloading point; goods are stored by pushing the previous ones towards the back. Live Pallet Racking is the perfect high-density storage system for homogeneous pallets.
AR LIVE STORAGE - Push-back racking LIFO
Push-Back Racking is a live storage system for accumulation of pallets, just like the Live Pallet Racking FIFO system (AR Live Storage), but designed for LIFO type load management (last pallet in, first pallet out). Push-back racking for pallets has a single loading and unloading area, at the front of the structure, and the unit loads are stored by pushing the previous ones towards the back of the rack. Depending on the movement system used to move the pallets, there are two types of Push-Back Racking: Push-back with shuttles: In the system with shuttles, each pallet, except the last one, is deposited on a shuttle, which moves on rails with a slight incline. Push-back with rollers: The pallets are moved by means of roller beds fixed to the structure with a slight incline. Like other live storage solutions, it is a high-density storage system, which optimises the available storage space. It can also be combined with other storage systems which makes it a versatile solution.
AR MOBILE - Mobile pallet rakcing
Mobile Pallet Racking (AR Mobile) is a system where the pallet racks are placed on chassis or mobile bases guided through fixed tracks on the floor. The base of this type of racking is equipped with an electrical motor and remote push-pull elements allowing the racks to move along the tracks in order to open only one forklift access aisle. Mobile pallet racking is a high density storage system, providing simple access for conventional forklift pallets. Its versatility permits its adaptation to both the load type and the type of forklift. A series of technical and organizational protective measures are in place to ensure that the movement of the shelving does not pose a risk. The features of the AR Mobile racking system make it the ideal storage system for cold storage and deep-freeze units, thanks to the reduction in the total volume to be cooled.
AR SHUTTLE - Pallet Shuttle System
The Pallet Shuttle (AR Shuttle) is a high-density compact storage solution that uses powered shuttles to automatically carry loads into the rack. The pallet shuttles are remotely controlled by an operator. Hence, there is an optimum use of storage space and workplace accident rates are also reduced. The use of automated shuttles in place of forklifts during the storage process not only reduces the risk of accidents, but also the maintenance costs resulting from damage of the rack. This system can work either as FIFO or as LIFO, even in freezer chambers, with temperatures of up to -30°C. This pallet shuttle system reinforces logistical capacity qualitatively and quantitatively, since it automates the handling of goods on pallets; it is also possible to control the inventory through a system of sensors which count the stored pallets.
AR LS - Longspan Shelving
The Longspan Shelving (AR LS) system permits the manual o picking storage of medium and small materials. This is a versatile racking that adapts to any type of unit load and facilitates direct and immediate access to stored SKUs. Its easy assembly and the option to incorporate accessories, such as platforms, make it possible for this racking to increase in height without compromising performance. The design, manufacture and assembly can be customized to suit client requirements and their professional sector. The Longspan Shelving is a selective system, enabling all unit loads and SKUs stored to be immediately accessed.
AR MULTITIER - Multi-tier Racking
The Multi-tier Racking designed for warehouses with limited floor areas but available height, are manual storage solutions that maximize warehouse space. They offer an optimum use of height with the creation of different levels of manual loading aisles at different heights accessible by stairs.
AR LIVE STORAGE - Carton Flow Rack
The Carton Flow Rack system, also called Carton Live Storage, permits high density storage of cartons and light products, leading to savings in space and improved stock turnover control. As with the live pallet racking system, perfect product rotation is ensured in this picking system by also following the FIFO (First in, First out) system, and interference is avoided by differentiating between the loading and unloading areas. The Carton flow racking system reduces distances covered in the warehouse and saves operating time, so it perfectly adapts to warehouses with a large volume of manual picking operations.
AR SILO CLAD RACK - Clad rack warehouses
Clad Rack Warehouses can be made up of any type of storage system as their main feature is for the racking to form part of the building structure. In this system, the racking not only supports the load of the stored goods, but also the load of the building envelope, as well as external forces such as wind or snow. This is the reason why clad warehouses represent the concept of optimum use of a warehouse: in the construction process, first the racking is assembled, and then the building envelope is built around this structure until the warehouse is complete. Most clad rack buildings are equipped with automated systems and robotic equipment for the handling of goods, especially of if they are multitier. In addition, AR Racking complies with the EN-1090 CE marking standard, mandatory for all manufacturers of clad rack industrial steelwork structures installed in the European Community, as established in Regulation 305/2011 of the European Parliament.
AR UNITLOAD RACK - AS/RS Automated Systems
AS/RS Systems (Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems) are storage solutions using stacker cranes or other similar automated mechanisms for handling loads. They offer high density storage thanks to the reduction of operating aisles and to their capacity for increasing in height. They also use minimum response times. AS/RS Systems reliability permits an immediate inventory of stored products and minimizes mistakes in the handling of loads. Structures for automated storage can be simple or double-depth.
AR MINILOAD RACK - Mini-load Automated System
The Mini-load Automated Storage System is the optimal solution for the storage of light and small unit loads with high stock turnover ratios. This system uses automated stacker crane mechanisms to handle loads, offering high performance and reduced carton storage and handling times. Mini-load storage system is a high density system thanks to the reduction of operating aisles and maximized floor and height space. Reliability allows the daily inventory of stored products and minimizes errors when handling loads.
