Fluent shelves, also known as sliding shelves, are generally made of roller aluminum alloy, sheet metal, and other fluent shelves. The fluent strip forms a tilt before and after, placing the goods at the high end. Due to gravity, the goods will automatically slide down to the low end of the fluent strip, achieving first in first out and multiple pickup times with one replenishment. Fluent shelves have high storage efficiency and are suitable for short-term storage and picking of large quantities of goods. At the same time, electronic tags can also be used to achieve easy management of goods. Common sliding containers include turnover boxes, parts boxes, and cardboard boxes.

Structural characteristics

The fluent bar of the fluent shelf is directly connected to the front and rear crossbeams and the middle support beam, and the crossbeam is hung directly on the pillar. The installation inclination of the fluent bar depends on the size, weight, and depth of the cargo box, usually taking 5% -9%.

The bearing capacity of the fluent strip roller is 6kg per piece. When the goods are heavy, 3-4 fluent strips can be installed on one roller track. Usually, a support beam is installed every 0.6m in the depth direction to increase the stiffness of the flow bar. When the raceway is long, a partition plate can be used to separate the raceway. The pickup end needs to install brake pads to slow down the goods and reduce impact.

Applicable scenarios

Fluent shelves are widely used in small item manual retrieval, distribution centers, assembly workshops, and warehouses with high shipping frequency due to their convenient access. In addition, due to its high utilization rate of space, this shelf is also suitable for storing large quantities of similar goods, especially for use in automotive parts factories.
