With Pushback Rack inventory is stored and retrieved from
the same aisle. Loads (pallets) in each lane rest on a cart that rolls on rails that slopes toward
the front. When a new load is to be stored a lane, the forklift pushes back the
pallet already at the face and all those behind. Then, when that load is
picked, the contents of the lane all move forward again, hence the term
"push back rack".
The objective of push back rack is to eliminate honeycombing
or empty pick locations. The ideal application for Push back Racks
will be where all loads in a lane are identical and first-in/first-out stock
rotation is not crucial.
