In the industrial warehouse dynamic or mobile racking systems are modern solutions for a compact warehouse. Single racks are mounted on traversing carriages, which can be pushed together by means of rails and rollers. For the stock storage and retrieval the required aisle is opened by an electronically controlled drive train. The result is a substantial decrease of transport routes and an increase in area of up to 100% compared to fixed racks.
Mobile cantilever racks allow for most efficient utilisation of space within your warehouse. Depending on the selected design, the storage capacity may be increased by up to 100%. Mobile racking is ideal for bulky storage goods with a low access frequency. For that purpose, the racks are mounted on traversing carriages, which may be designed up to 70 metres in length. The carriages can be moved apart either manually or by radio remote control so that the only required aisle is opened.

Retrospective installation of rails and carriages for your existing OHRA cantilever racking in the existing storage spaces is also possible. At the end of the working day, the racks are positioned into a "night position" so that unwanted access by forklift trucks is prevented. We attach equally great importance to reliable safety and tried standards for mobile racking as for our standard racking. The OHRA cantilever racking on traversing carriages comply with the provisions of Regulation BGR 234 of the German employers’ liability association and the CE standards.
Movable pallet racks are dynamic racking systems and are suitable for palletised goods that require compact storage with a low footprint. With this storage system, the robust pallet racks are installed on torsion-resistant moving trolleys. The complete rack is moved as a single racking unit by means of either electronic or manual control. The trolleys are moved on rails, which can be implemented both in new systems and retrospectively in existing floors. In this way, only one active aisle is required per rack run of the pallet rack. This results in a high degree of utilisation of the available space since only one aisle is open, i.e. in the position where goods are stored into or retrieved from the rack.
Movable racks ensure low-noise movement and are pushed together without any gaps. Outside the operating hours, the racking system can be switched to “night position”. In that case, the individual racks of the pallet racking system are opened at equal distances, which are so narrow that none of the aisles can be accessed with a forklift truck. In this way, the movable racks also provide efficient theft protection.
The semi-automatic warehouse is so named because the warehouse personnel work with the storage and retrieval machine for certain tasks and processes, such as order picking.
The SRM moves automatically to the racking position determined by the operator in advance. The precise positioning in front of the racking position is fully automatic, while the on- and offloading of e.g. wooden boards is controlled by the operator over a manual command. This is also the case for the raising and lowering of loads and for the direction of movement of the forks.
In contrast to the semi-automatic warehouse, in the fully automatic warehouse mode, all processes are pre-set on the warehouse management software. All commands are transmitted automatically to the control unit of the storage and retrieval machine. All the steps involved, including start-up of the racking unit, exact positioning in front of the racking position, lifting and lowering of loads, and the journey to the pick-up station are fully automated, without any involvement by warehouse staff.

Industry-specific storage systems
For the furniture and timber industry, a special storage technology is an important feature to achieve an economic stock holding pallets and transport packages in a pallet rack, and primary material, timber and panels in a Cantilever rack. Due to the manufactured products and the applied material, voluminous goods should be stored in a space-saving and prompt commissioning friendly method.
