A selective pallet racking system is a type of storage system used in warehouses and distribution centers to store palletized goods. It is the most common type of pallet racking system and allows for easy and direct access to every pallet stored in the system.
The selective pallet racking system consists of upright frames, beams, and wire decking. The upright frames are vertical columns that support the horizontal beams, which are attached to the uprights and create the shelf levels. The pallets are then placed on the beams and can be accessed directly by a forklift or other material handling equipment.
Selective pallet racking is a versatile and flexible storage solution that can accommodate various pallet sizes and weights. It also allows for easy and efficient inventory management, as each pallet can be tracked and located quickly. However, it is not the most space-efficient system compared to other types of pallet racking systems such as drive-in, push-back, or pallet flow.
