Design Considerations
1

Pallet Weight Requirements

300 – 1,500 kg
  • Too light → poor flow momentum
  • Too heavy → safety risk exceeded
  • Correct weight → smooth roller travel
  • Pallets: 0.3T to 1.5T per unit

Proper weight control ensures consistent movement along the roller tracks and prevents operational issues such as stoppage or excessive speed.

2

Pallet Size & Entry Configuration

Compatible pallet sizes:

800 × 1200 mm 800 × 800 mm 800 × 1100 mm

Key requirement: All pallets must be loaded from the same entry side and in a consistent orientation to prevent jamming or misalignment within the system.

Inventory Flow Type
FIFO

First-In, First-Out

Ideal for perishable goods and time-sensitive stock. Ensures proper stock rotation from intake to dispatch.

  • Food & beverage
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Cold storage
FILO

First-In, Last-Out

Suitable when inventory rotation is not critical. Used for non-perishable or long shelf-life products.

  • Non-perishable goods
  • Bulk raw materials
  • Seasonal stock
Warehouse Temperature Conditions

Normal Temperature Warehouse

  • Standard rollers & materials
  • Lower cost and simpler design
  • Suitable for ambient environments
  • Wide range of compatible products

Cold Storage / Freezer Environment

  • Special low-temperature rollers
  • Frost-resistant lubricants required
  • Condensation-proof structure
  • Materials handle thermal expansion
System Flexibility & Applications
Rack height & depth Number of lanes Roller type & spacing Braking systems Speed control Automation integration Custom configurations

Gravity racking is a smart, cost-effective solution for warehouses aiming to increase efficiency, improve storage density, and streamline material flow. By carefully considering pallet weight, size consistency, inventory flow strategy, and environmental conditions, businesses can implement a system that delivers long-term performance and operational excellence.
