What types of semi-automatic warehouse shelves are there?

In the era of AI (Artificial Intelligence), all industries are striving for efficiency, including the storage of goods in warehouses. Since fully automated warehouse shelves are costly, many enterprises prefer to use semi-automated warehouse shelves for storage, which can enhance efficiency while also reducing procurement budgets. What types of semi-automated warehouse shelves are there? The manufacturer of shuttle rack explains.

Shuttle racks are currently the most widely used semi-automated warehouse shelves. They use automated equipment, shuttle carts, to operate on the shelf tracks, undertaking the task of transporting goods. Forklifts only need to transport the goods to the designated position at the entrance of the shelf lane, and then the shuttle cart will automatically transport them to the deep storage positions inside the lane. The process is reversed when retrieving goods. It is a type of warehouse rack with large and efficient storage capacity for dense goods, widely used in warehouses and cold storage facilities.

Besides shuttle rack, gravity roller racks are also automated dense storage warehouse shelves. They use the weight of the goods to slide down, and are dynamic storage warehouse shelves. They have a large storage capacity for dense goods and efficiency comparable to shuttle racks. Both shuttle-type shelves and gravity roller shelves are warehouse shelves with automated functions. If the budget is limited, these two types of shelves can be considered. The manufacturer of shuttle rack can provide free design proposals and quotations based on customer needs.
