Working on the principle of “parts to the picker”, the live Storage system provides excellent volume utilization on First-In First-Out (FIFO) principle.

Speed reduction units control the speed of pallets, and prevent line build up and pressure, automatic offload separation gates and entry guides ensure ease of operation. As each lane can be used to store different commodities, more picking face are available than with Drive-in.

Standard Euro designed pallets can be used on full width rollers. For non-standard pallet sizes, either high-density roller or multi track systems can be provided.

A derivative of flow pallet racking it operates in complete reverse where the pallet is push up a small gradient of around 3-4% by the forklift truck, systems can be designed up to 7-8 pallets in depth but consultation with the Material Handling Supplier is recommended to ensure the machine has the capacity to push back a full loaded lane.

Push back is used as an alternative to Drive-in systems where there are insufficient homogenous pallets for a Drive-In systems to operate successfully. It can offer high-density storage with different pallet types being stocked at each level, but operates on First-In Last-Out (FILO) principles.
