Rack

A storage device for handling material in pallets. A rack usually provides storage for pallets arranged in vertical sections with one or more pallets to a tie r. Some racks accommodate more than one-pallet-deep storage. Some racks are static, meaning that the rack contents remain in a fixed position until physically moved. Some racks are designed with a sloped shelf to allow products to “flow” down as product in the front is removed. Replenishment of product on a flow rack may be from the rear, or the front in a “push back” manner.
