A derivative of selective racking pallet, this racking system requires the use of specialist reach truck or an attachment fitted to a regular reach truck.
While achieving an increase in storage capacity by 30% in comparison to selective pallet racking, its selectivity of pallets drops by 50%.
This system provides an excellent increase in warehousing capacity. In contrast, in an alternative-racking system such as drive-in racking, this is not a feasible option due to the mix volume (size and shape) of SKU’s which require storing in the warehouse.
This system is commonly used in many 3PL warehouses where two back-to-back pallets are installed and accessed from the same position in the aisle.
To access the rear pallet the material handling equipment has to come fitted with a specialised attachment called Pantograph Extender.
Double deep racking system warehousing gives high-density storage facility at a lower initial capital cost as compared to other high-density storage systems.
