Carton Flow Rack in Wilmington, NC
Carton flow rack brings cases toward the picker on sloped wheels or rollers while replenishment enters from the rear. E-commerce layouts near the ILM airport area off North 23rd St, Castle Hayne Rd and Wilmington Business Park at ILM can use separate loading and picking faces to organize repeat order lines.
Carton flow shelving works best when lane counts reflect actual SKU turns and carton sizes. In older industrial space along Shipyard Blvd or Carolina Beach Rd, clear height and column spacing need measuring; hot, humid summers in mostly non-air-conditioned buildings also make carton-base testing under operating conditions worthwhile.
Carton Flow Shelving Built Around Order Lines
Start with active SKUs, daily picks and cases consumed between replenishment runs. Give repeat movers enough lane depth to last between refills, and keep less active items from occupying the most accessible pick positions.
Set pick elevations around case weight and how the item is handled. The layout should shorten repeated walks without forcing heavy cases into awkward reaches.
Carton Flow Rack Lane Width and Roller Selection
Case footprint
Measure the smallest and largest cases and note their base construction. Wheel spacing and lane guides must support each case without catching edges.
Weight and slope
Check light and heavy cases on the proposed roller bed. Set slope and discharge control so cartons advance without excessive impact at the pick face.
Replenishment depth
Use consumption between refill runs to set cases per lane. Keep rear loading access separate from the picker route.
Carton Flow Rack with Reserve Storage Above
Flow beds can sit below reserve pallet levels when the supporting configuration is designed for both loads. Include the combined load, forklift reach and case-picking clearance before setting beam elevations.
We show pick paths, replenishment aisles and staging in the CAD layout. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage follow an agreed sequence so receiving and order picking can be planned around the work.
