Spacesaver Industrial introduced the ActivRAC 7M Mobilized Storage System, a light- to medium-duty, custom configurable line of mobile storage carriages. The system is designed to help manufacturers and related companies in the material handling, merchant wholesale and logistics industries meet SKU explosion pressures and make operational efficiency improvements without having to expand their existing facilities or lease new space.
With ActivRAC Mobilized Storage, otherwise stationary (or fixed) sections of four-post bulk racking, cabinets, shelving or even pallet racking are mounted on the carriages which travel on steel rails. By moving rows of storage from side to side, the system is able to eliminate space-wasting, idle aisles and “compress” (or compact) the stored materials into a much smaller footprint when compared with a stationary system—yet provide 100 percent access whenever needed.
The carriages are engineered to accommodate most existing four-post bulk racking, shelving and even pallet racking. The carriage is rated to a total weight capacity of up to a total 7,000 lbs. Up to three carriages can be placed in line and moved by turning the handle. Safety features include an adjustable drift-brake to prevent unintentional movement and an aisle lock out pin for securing the handle when entering an aisle.
The system can mount on un-leveled floors. Installation is simplified, cost efficient and both the surface mount and flush mount rail options can be taken up and moved or re-configured at a later date should needs change.
