Automated Warehouse Racking System
Automation brings all kinds of benefits to your racking solutions.
Semi-automated shuttle racking gets installed as deep tunnels (lanes). Loading and unloading take place at either end of the rack.
- To load pallets: the forklift truck places the pallet at the lane’s entrance, and the shuttle cart then moves the pallet deep into the racking.
- You can choose whether you unload from the side you loaded or the other end of the racking lane.
- As a result, there is no need for forklift trucks to stack every pallet in its own location, as the shuttle cart takes over this process, thereby saving valuable operator time.
Fully-automated racking gets installed in the same way as semi-automated shuttle racking, with shuttle carriers and elevators or cranes replacing the need for forklift operators to place pallets into the lanes.
The floor utilisation for semi and fully automated racking sits at around 75 to 80 per cent.
At Storepro, we have extensive experience designing, installing, and maintaining automated warehouse racking systems. When you work with us, our team will get a complete understanding of your requirements and storage process to develop a solution tailored to your needs.
With no forklifts moving up and down aisles loading and unloading pallets as with most pallet racking systems, automating your racking can help you optimise space, improve workflow, minimise accident risks, and gain significant efficiency savings.

Suitable Applications
Automated pallet racking systems are ideally suited to bulk storage, particularly where you have many pallets for each SKU, and stock rotation is of minimal importance to your operations. You may especially benefit from an automated pallet racking system if your facility includes cool stores and/or refrigerated warehouses.
Minimise accident risks by incorporating automation into your racking and storage solution. As forklifts are not moving up and down aisles loading and unloading pallets, the risk of accidents occurring is reduced when you use an automated pallet racking system.
Automated pallet racking systems are suitable for both Last In First Out (LIFO) and First In First Out (FIFO) product arrangements.
