Shuttle Racking
Semi-automated shuttle-driven pallet storage — a remote-controlled shuttle handles pallets inside the lane so forklifts never enter the rack.
Shuttle Racking
Shuttle Racking System is a semi-automated racking system similar in construction to drive-in racking. Loading and unloading of pallets is carried out by a remote-controlled shuttle moving on specially shaped rails connected to the racking channels. Using automated shuttles in place of forklifts during storage not only reduces the risk of accidents but also lowers maintenance costs from rack damage. The system can work as either FIFO or LIFO, even in freezer chambers down to -30°C.
- High level of space optimisation.
- Storage of different SKUs in the same channel.
- Safe and fast operation.
- Constant handling flow.
- Excellent for bulk storage applications such as cold storage and food & beverages.
Semi-Automated Storage Built for High-Volume Warehouses
Shuttle Racking replaces manual forklift entry into storage lanes with a remote-controlled shuttle, combining the density of drive-in racking with faster, safer, more consistent pallet handling — ideal for warehouses running high SKU counts at high volume, including cold-chain operations.
Benefits of Shuttle Racking Systems
High-Density Storage
Deep-lane storage without forklifts entering the rack.
Multi-SKU Flexibility
Different SKUs can be stored in the same channel.
Improved Safety
Automated shuttle handling reduces rack damage and accident risk.
Faster Throughput
Constant, consistent handling flow compared to manual drive-in.
FIFO or LIFO
Adaptable to your inventory rotation strategy.
Cold Storage Ready
Rated for freezer chambers down to -30°C.
