Description

Very narrow aisle (VNA) racking systems allow warehouse operators to increase storage capacity by shrinking the aisles between each row of racks. Because VNA systems can employ aisles as narrow as 5.5′, these systems are typically installed in conjunction with a guidewire that is embedded into the concrete floor that serves to prevent human-steered machines from colliding with the racking. This wire provides tracking for wire-guided turret trucks or other wire-guided picking machines and ensures that these reach trucks travel only on a predefined path without reducing vehicle speed or efficiency. VNA racking is a terrific way to maximize usable storage space without sacrificing picking or put away productivity, but the cost of the wire-guided machines sometimes poses a bit of a financial hurdle.

Narrow aisle racking or very narrow aisle (VNA) racking storage configuration allows companies to store more goods and materials per square foot within their warehouse or distribution center.

The Main Advantages Of Narrow Aisle Systems Are:

• Fast-order picking
• Best utilization of space
• 100% accessibility to individual pallets
• High level of throughput
• Benefits Of Narrow Aisle Racking:

Narrow Aisle Racking Systems Are Particularly Suited To:

• Pallets of uniform size
• Warehouses with high roof and level floor
• Automated systems
