What scenarios are shuttle car shelves generally used in
Shuttle car shelves belong to high-density warehousing and storage systems, which are completed by the shelf body, shuttle cars, and forklifts in coordination for inbound and outbound operations. By relying on shuttle cars to enter the deep shelf aisle for storage and retrieval of goods, the warehouse space utilization rate is greatly improved, and it is suitable for large-scale and relatively concentrated category warehousing business. The main application scenarios are as follows:
1、 Storage scenarios in the food and beverage industry
Finished product warehouse and raw material warehouse of food and beverage production enterprises. The goods in this industry are mostly transported in bulk on pallets, with a prominent demand for batch management and a large turnover of goods. Shuttle car shelves can increase storage space within limited warehouse space, suitable for storing bottled beverages, canned goods, grain and oil, packaged snacks, etc. at room temperature.
At the same time, it can adapt to the batch storage of raw materials and semi-finished products, support excellent warehousing modes, and meet the management requirements of the food industry for batch control. It can also be used in conjunction with cold storage environments for low-temperature storage of frozen food and dairy products. Suitable shuttle car models for low-temperature conditions are selected.
2、 Storage of chemical raw materials and new materials industry
Chemical powders, resins, packaging raw materials, and other bulk goods are stored in pallets, with materials mostly stored in large quantities on pallets, resulting in high turnover quantities per item. The high-density storage characteristics of shuttle shelves are suitable for enterprises with limited warehouse area and the need to store a large number of pallet goods.
According to the material properties, shelf components with corresponding surface anti-corrosion treatment can be selected for storing non corrosive packaging materials, achieving centralized management of raw materials and finished product pallets.
3、 Cold chain warehousing scenario
Cold storage facilities for third-party cold chain logistics companies and meat and seafood processing enterprises. The construction cost of cold storage is relatively high, and increasing storage capacity can dilute the unit storage cost. Shuttle shelves can fully utilize the cold storage space and reduce channel occupation. Suitable for storing large quantities of frozen goods and refrigerated processed products. Cold resistant shuttle cars are selected for low-temperature environments to ensure stable operation of equipment in such environments.
4、 Building materials and home panel industry
Bulk packaged goods such as boards, profiles, tiles, etc. are stored, and the goods are mostly circulated in bulk on pallets, with a large inventory quantity for a single SKU. These types of goods usually have stable turnover and are suitable for centralized storage on shuttle truck shelves, reducing the risk of collision caused by frequent forklift entry into the aisle and protecting easily damaged goods such as boards and tiles.
5、 Bulk stocking area for e-commerce warehouses and regional distribution centers
The large-scale stocking area of e-commerce warehousing is different from the scattered picking area. Suitable for bulk storage of popular products and whole box bulk goods, storing a large number of pallets from the same batch in a centralized manner. During the outbreak period of orders, it is possible to quickly release goods in bulk, and the front-end can then connect to the selection of parts for disassembly and picking; Not suitable for high-frequency picking of small and scattered items.
6、 Raw material warehouse and finished product warehouse in manufacturing factories
Mechanical equipment, automotive parts, and home appliance manufacturing enterprises, used for storing raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished product pallets. For example, injection molding raw materials, metal components, and packaging products are mainly transported in whole pallets, with a large inventory of materials of the same model.
The warehouses of production-oriented enterprises often face limitations in site expansion. Shuttle shelves can increase storage capacity within the original building space, and cooperate with production plans to complete raw material storage and finished product temporary storage.
7、 Tobacco and paper industry
The warehouse for paper and cigarette products has well-organized units and large batches, requiring high storage stability. The storage cycle of palletized goods is moderate, and the frequency of batch inbound and outbound is high, which is suitable for the shuttle car shelving operation mode and improves the utilization of warehouse space.
