Push-Back Rack

  • Offers the same storage density as drive-in & drive-thru racks but greater selectivity
  • All loads are stored and retrieved from the aisle
  • Loads in each lane rest on a cart on a rail that slopes gently toward the front
  • When a new load is deposited into a lane, it ‘pushes back’ the one already at the face and all those behind. Then, when that load is picked, the contents of the lane all move gently forward again, hence the name "push back rack".
  • Remove honeycombing or pick empty faces
  • Loads in a lane are identical thus FIFO is not important
