Fully automated racking production line with robotic processes

100% Automated, Fully Traceable Production

Robotic processes and laser-assisted technology deliver consistent precision in every upright, beam and connector — critical when the structure must hold the exact geometry an AS/RS requires.

With Traceability 4.0, each component carries identification marking, so origin, batch and installation can be tracked for preventive maintenance and audits.

FAQ

Industrial Racking Questions from North American Buyers

Straight answers to the questions procurement managers and warehouse engineers ask us most.

Which pallet racking systems do you supply for warehouses in the USA and Canada?

We design and manufacture selective, very narrow aisle (VNA), double-deep, drive-in, mobile, pallet flow, push-back and pallet shuttle racking, plus picking shelving, multi-tier systems, cantilever racking and rack structures for automated warehouses.

Can your racking be engineered for 48″ × 40″ pallets and local seismic requirements?

Yes. Every project is calculated for its actual load units, including the 48″ × 40″ GMA pallet, and our engineering team coordinates with the project's engineer of record so the design reflects the governing local building and seismic requirements.

What is the difference between a rack-supported warehouse and a conventional building with racks?

In a rack-supported warehouse the racking itself carries the roof and wall cladding, so the storage structure is also the building structure. This enables very high-bay storage, reduces civil works and is typically combined with stacker cranes or shuttles.

Why is structural precision critical for AS/RS and robotic storage?

Robots and stacker cranes require millimeter-level manufacturing and installation tolerances and strict deflection limits. Minor deviations can stop the equipment, so we use automated, laser-assisted production to deliver the exact geometry specified by the integrator.

Can automated or high-density racking operate in freezer warehouses?

Yes. Our structures use specific finishes and high-resilience steels for cold and frozen environments, with projects such as a 23,000-position rack-supported freezer warehouse operating at -24 °C (-11 °F).

What warranty and after-sales services do you offer?

All our racking systems carry a 5-year quality warranty, supported by project engineering, installation, technical inspection and maintenance services.
