Every facility has unique storage requirements and operational challenges. Some warehouses frequently move items, while others manage a diverse range of inventory. Regardless of your operational structure, the need for a reliable warehouse shelving system remains constant.
At MTS RACKS, we provide innovative storage solutions, including mobile racking systems, to help warehouses in the UAE, including Dubai, Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, and beyond, improve efficiency and maximize space. Let’s explore what mobile racking is and how it can benefit your facility.
What is a Mobile Racking System?
Mobile racking is a heavy-duty racking system designed for high-density storage with easy access to inventory. Unlike traditional static racking systems, mobile racking optimizes floor space by using a movable base. These racks are ideal for facilities that need efficient picking, improved inventory management, and customizable storage solutions.
How Does Mobile Racking Work?
Although the name might suggest otherwise, the racking structure itself remains static, while the base moves along tracks installed on the floor.
• Movement Mechanism: The racks are mounted on motorized or manually operated bases. These bases can be moved using controls such as remote control, buttons, or touchscreen panels.
• Loading and Unloading: Loading and unloading are similar to standard selective pallet racking. Pallets are securely placed on static beam levels within the rack, ensuring stability during operation.
The mobile base creates a flexible aisle system, where only one aisle is needed at a time, reducing the overall floor space required.
Benefits of Mobile Racking:
Mobile racking offers several key advantages, making it a popular choice for facilities across industries:
1. High-Density Storage: By eliminating the need for fixed aisles between racks, mobile racking significantly increases storage capacity while saving valuable floor space.
2. Improved Accessibility: The movable base ensures direct access to pallets, making it easier to pick items and manage inventory. This is especially beneficial for facilities managing multiple SKUs.
3. Energy Efficiency: In temperature-controlled environments, mobile racking minimizes the volume of air that needs cooling, leading to energy savings.
4. Customizable Design: The system can be tailored to accommodate specific inventory types, forklift requirements, and operational workflows. It is also easy to expand by adding more racks as your needs grow.
5. Enhanced Organization: This system helps streamline operations and improve inventory accuracy by optimizing space and access.
Where Should Mobile Racking Be Used?
Mobile racking is versatile and suitable for a wide range of industries, including:
• Food and Beverage Storage
• Cold Storage Facilities
• Agriculture
• Automotive and Aerospace
• Pharmaceutical and Medical Supply Warehousing
• Manufacturing
• 3PL and Distribution Centers
Essentially, any product that can be stored on standard racking can also benefit from mobile racking.
