Overview
Shitong Compact Gravity Racking is engineered for facilities where space is limited but picking speed is critical. Its modular design creates dense, easy-to-reach pick faces, making it ideal for micro-fulfillment and retail replenishment.
How It Works
Operators load cartons from the back; gravity lanes move them forward automatically to the front picking face. Pickers access products quickly with minimal travel, reducing cycle times and improving ergonomics.
Key Features
-
Compact gravity racks that maximize storage density per square meter.

FAQ:
1. How many parts does carton flow racking have?
Main parts include upright frame, beam, roller track or wheel bed, separator, roller support rail, and carton stop plate.
Optional parts include frame protector, upright protector, lane divider, and pick-to-light accessories.
2. How to control the speed of cartons on carton flow racking?
The flow speed depends on the lane incline and roller type. By adjusting the angle (usually 3–5°) or using brake rollers, the cartons will flow smoothly without impact.
3. What is the load capacity per carton?
Typically, each lane position can carry 20–50 kg per carton, depending on the roller system. Per lane capacity can reach 200–400 kg.
4. Will cartons get stuck when they flow down?
No, proper debugging will eliminate this. Correct roller spacing, lane angle, and carton base quality ensure smooth flow.
5. How long can a carton flow lane be?
Standard lanes are 6–12 cartons deep, but Shitong has manufactured lanes up to 20 cartons deep. Longer designs can be customized if required.
6. What are the main characteristics of carton flow racking?
