kuormalavahyllyjärjestelmät

Kuormalavahylly refers to a type of industrial shelving system designed to store palletized goods. These systems are essential for optimizing warehouse space and managing inventory efficiently. They allow for vertical storage of heavy loads, making full use of the available cubic footage within a storage facility.

The most common type of kuormalavahylly is the selective pallet rack. This system provides direct access to each individual pallet, allowing for first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory management if arranged accordingly. It consists of vertical upright frames and horizontal beams that support the pallets. The spacing and height of the beams can be adjusted to accommodate various pallet sizes and product heights.

Other variations of kuormalavahylly exist to suit different needs. Drive-in and drive-through racks, for example, allow forklifts to enter the rack system to store and retrieve pallets, offering high-density storage but typically operating on a last-in, first-out (LIFO) basis. Push-back racks utilize a system of wheeled carts on inclined rails to store multiple pallets deep, with the front pallet being the first one accessible. Pallet flow racks use gravity to move pallets from the loading side to the unloading side, facilitating FIFO.

The selection of a specific kuormalavahylly system depends on factors such as the type of goods, desired storage density, product turnover rate, and available warehouse space. Proper installation and maintenance are crucial for ensuring safety and operational efficiency. These systems are a cornerstone of modern logistics and supply chain operations.
