Mobile Racking Without Floor Rails

Mobile racking is a common warehouse storage solution, however installing floor rails can be difficult at times. Fortunately, movable racking systems without rails are available, which might be advantageous when installing in existing structures.

These rail-less systems, however, necessitate a more powerful motor and drive system to compensate for the friction created by the wheels moving directly on the floor. They also have a maximum loading capacity of 16 tons per unit. If the total load exceeds this limit, a floor-guided rail system with less friction and more stability is recommended.

Whatever solution you pick, movable racking can be controlled manually or remotely via RFID, allowing for simple access to aisles and optimal storage space utilization with minimal floor space required. Mobile racking systems, when properly designed and installed, may improve efficiency, productivity, and profitability in any warehouse or distribution center.
