Product overview
Pallet live racking uses inclined roller conveyors to enable automatic forward movement of load units. Loading occurs from one side and unloading from the opposite side, ensuring FIFO (First In, First Out) management. The system optimises storage density by reducing aisle count and forklift travel distances, making it suitable for high-throughput environments.

How it works
Braking rollers, separators and limit switches regulate pallet movement to ensure controlled progression even with heavy loads. Inclined roller lanes separate loading and retrieval operations so pallets roll from the load face to the pick face along the lane, improving flow efficiency and storage utilisation.

Benefits and features

• Automatic FIFO management via inclined roller conveyors
• Suitable for feeding production lines and shipping areas
• Reduces number of aisles compared with static shelving
• Brake rollers and separators control pallet progress and spacing

Applications

• Production feed — FIFO lanes to supply lines with a steady pallet flow
• Shipping areas — gravity lanes to sequence pallets for dispatch and simplify picking
• Food & Beverage warehouses — palletised storage with FIFO batch rotation for shelf-life and lot control

Projects / Implementation
Designed and implemented to optimise storage and movement of palletised goods, gravity systems are engineered to simplify operations, accelerate flow and enhance workplace safety. Slope, roller type and lane length are defined during design to match pallet characteristics and handling requirements.
