Fluent shelving principle

Description :

　　Fluent shelves, also known as sliding shelves, use roller aluminum alloy, sheet metal and other fluent strips. By utilizing the weight of the cargo rack, inventory is stored from one channel and goods are picked up from the other channel to achieve first in, first out, convenient storage, and multiple pickups for one replenishment.

　　Five advantages of fluent shelving

　　1. Fluent shelves can meet the requirement of first in, first out for goods, utilizing the weight of the goods to stock on one side and retrieve from the other;

　　2. Due to the structural characteristics of the shelves, it is convenient to store goods and allows for one-time replenishment and multiple picking;

　　3. Fluent shelves can save space, improve efficiency, and are suitable for storing and picking large quantities of goods;

　　4. Can be equipped with electronic tags for easy information management of physical objects.

　　5. The depth of the shelf should not be too large, otherwise it will affect the efficiency of shelf space utilization and reduce the safety of goods during transportation.

　　Fluent shelves and gravity shelves are both types of shelves with sloping tracks that can utilize the weight of the goods themselves to store and retrieve them from the lower end of the shelf. However, although the two are very similar in usage, their structures are vastly different.

　　Fluent shelves use fluent bar tracks, which are generally directly connected to the front and rear crossbeams as well as the middle support beam, with the crossbeam hanging directly from the pillar. The installation inclination of the fluent bar depends on the size, weight, and depth of the cargo box, usually ranging from 5% to 9%. The bearing capacity of the fluent strip roller is 6kg per piece. When the goods are heavy, 3-4 fluent strips can be installed on one roller track. Usually, a support beam is installed every 0.6m in the depth direction to increase the stiffness of the flow bar. When the raceway is long, a partition plate can be used to separate the raceway. The pickup end needs to install brake pads to slow down the goods and reduce impact.

　　Gravity shelves use roller tracks or bottom wheel pallets. Generally, the shelves are equipped with roller devices with a slope of about 3 degrees, which are suitable for large quantities of equivalent goods. The space utilization rate is extremely high, and single pallet goods are generally within 1000kg. Damping rollers can be installed in the middle to slow down the sliding speed of the pallet. A separator is also installed at one end of the slide for shipment, and the depth and number of layers can be determined according to needs. However, the design, manufacturing, and installation are difficult and costly, and the shelf height is well controlled within 6 meters, otherwise its reliability and operability will be reduced.

　　Fluent shelves, also known as sliding shelves, use roller aluminum alloy, sheet metal and other fluent strips. By utilizing the weight of the cargo rack, inventory is stored from one channel and goods are picked up from the other channel to achieve first in, first out, convenient storage, and multiple pickups for one replenishment. Fluent shelves are indispensable equipment in the storage and distribution process. Ordinary shelves can only simply meet the needs of goods placement. In contrast, the unique structure of fluent shelves can actively meet the requirements of first in, first out.
