Customized CAD Designed Versatile Warehouse Pick Modules With High Throughput
What is A Pick Module?
A Pick Module is engineered by integrating storage racks(carton flow rack, pallet rack, push back rack, mezzanine rack), shelves and conveyors to optimize warehouse utilization and more importantly maximize the order picking efficiency.
To realize the goal of accurate picking and fast product replenishment, pick modules combine hand-picking and automated picking together into multiple-level storage systems for full and split case picking in distribution centers.
What's the Structure Feature of A Pick Module?
Warehouse pick modules are comprehensive projects where you can find a number types of racks. The typical structure includes the following rack components:
♦ Selective pallet rack
♦ Push back pallet rack
♦ Carton flow pallet rack
♦ Mezzanine rack
♦ Shelving system
♦ Pallet flow rack system
♦ Conveyors
♦ Other accessories
This integrated system can be engineered with several levels, using mezzanines as the foundation, cooperate with some slower or faster moving components for product reserving and picking.
Here's the Functions and Features of Some Main Components:
| Components | Functions | Features |
| Selective pallet rack | Basic storage units | Cost-saving with adjustability |
| Push back pallet rack | Large palletized loads | High-density storage with efficient retrieval |
| Carton flow pallet rack | Small items in cartons and boxes | Fast turnove with many picking faces |
|
Mezzanine rack |
Structural support and Storage | Maximized space utilization |
| Shelving system | Basic storage units for various products | Felexible and easy accessibility |
| Pallet flow rack system | High throughput items storage and retrieval | Gravity-driven and energy-saving |
| Conveyors | Product transport and delivery | Time-saving and labor-saving |
