lävavarastointijärjestelmät

Lävavarastointijärjestelmät, often translated as "through-put" or "in-and-out" storage systems, are a type of warehouse or logistics solution designed for efficient handling of goods with a rapid turnover. The fundamental principle is that products enter the system from one side and exit from the opposite side, minimizing the need for internal movement and storage within the facility.

These systems are particularly well-suited for businesses dealing with fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), seasonal products, or items with a short shelf life. The primary goal is to reduce handling time, decrease the risk of product damage due to excessive movement, and optimize space utilization. Common examples include drive-through racking, gravity flow systems (like roller conveyors or carton flow racks), and some forms of automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) configured for high throughput.

The design of a lävavarastointijärjestelmä emphasizes clear entry and exit points and often involves dedicated lanes for incoming and outgoing inventory. This segregation helps prevent congestion and ensures a smooth, continuous flow of goods. Implementation requires careful planning to match the system's capacity and flow rate with the actual demand and supply patterns of the business. Benefits can include reduced labor costs, faster order fulfillment, and improved inventory accuracy.
