A collaboration between Steel King Industries and Automha Americas allows Steel King to provide Automha’s Pallet Runner deep lane storage system. The lithium-ion powered Pallet Runner moves pallets in and out of high-density storage lanes, creating increased storage density in an existing space.
The system works with high-volume SKUs, as pallets are loaded into the system by lift truck and transported into deep lanes by the Pallet Runner cart. Once the load is positioned, the cart returns to the front of the system to receive the next pallet. The lift truck operator travels only between the load source and lane entry, and the cart does the rest.
The deep lanes of the system increase storage density by reducing aisles and using depth space, maximizing storage capacity within the same footprint. The system is designed to move quickly, enhancing efficiency, expediting pallet loading/unloading, and reducing wait time for trucks at loading docks.
