When small parts share static shelves with reserve cartons, replenishment and picking compete for the same reach space. We use carton dimensions and picks per shift to assign lanes rather than divide every shelf equally. A soft carton needs different support from a stiff case, and a fast-moving item may need more than one lane. The replenishment path belongs on the same drawing as the pick face, with reserve pallets treated separately from case-level flow. Carton Flow Rack is evaluated against the way your Olathe inventory moves, not just the available square footage. Send the current floor plan and storage profile for a free warehouse needs analysis; we will explain what changes, what remains accessible, and what the proposed layout includes before you order. (913) 453-3942: +19134533942 ## Why Olathe Warehouses Work With Us Lone Elm, Ridgeview, and the K-10 corridor connect manufacturing and parts distribution to the I-35 freight route. Raw material, production supply, and finished goods may have very different access needs inside one building. We separate those movements in the layout, then compare the space each consumes. A bulk storage gain is not useful if it forces production replenishment through the same approach needed for outbound staging. We use carton dimensions and picks per shift to assign lanes rather than divide every shelf equally. A soft carton needs different support from a stiff case, and a fast-moving item may need more than one lane. The replenishment path belongs on the same drawing as the pick face, with reserve pallets treated separately from case-level flow. The local plan also accounts for access along the I-35 and K-10 industrial corridor, delivery space, and the difference between a receiving window and a storage window. We ask your team to confirm those constraints from the building information and daily schedule. As a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., we put the layout, material list, and installation scope in front of you together. You get a free design consultation, an itemized quote, and installation teams we manage, with one contact for revisions, scheduling, and replacement parts. We explain the tradeoffs before the purchase and keep the approved configuration available for later changes.

Manufacturing Aerospace and electronics Distribution Automotive parts ## How Carton Flow Rack Works Cases advance to the picker instead of the picker hunting for cases. 1 ### Inclined wheel beds A full-width wheel bed or roller track sits on a slight incline inside a standard bay, so cases move forward under their own weight without power. 2 ### Pick from a fixed position The picker always reaches for the same forward spot in the lane. Travel time drops, and so does the time spent searching for the next case. 3 ### Restock from behind Replenishment loads the high end of the lane from a separate aisle, so restocking never blocks or slows the pick line, and rotation stays first in, first out automatically. 4 ### One lane per SKU Lane dividers set the width for each case size, giving every SKU its own face - a width that can be resized as your product mix shifts. ## What a Carton Flow Rack Project Includes For this Olathe project, the first discussion covers distribution inventory, access near Olathe Industrial Park, and the building information you provide. We use carton dimensions and picks per shift to assign lanes rather than divide every shelf equally. A soft carton needs different support from a stiff case, and a fast-moving item may need more than one lane. The replenishment path belongs on the same drawing as the pick face, with reserve pallets treated separately from case-level flow. The project starts with the case list: dimensions, weight, whether the carton bottom is stiff or soft, and picks per SKU per day. Those numbers decide wheel bed style, lane width, and how much face each SKU is worth giving up. From there we lay out the bay - how many flow levels, at what incline, and what sits above them. In most designs, the fastest movers get the golden zone at waist height, slower SKUs move to the upper or lower levels, and reserve pallets stack overhead in the same footprint. The quote itemizes frames, beams, wheel bed or track, lane dividers, front stops, and shelf-level accessories, with the layout showing lane assignments by SKU. Installation sets the incline, tests case travel with your actual cartons, and adjusts before the line goes live. The payoff is a pick line where cases present themselves, restocking stays out of the way, and lane widths can be reset whenever SKUs come and go. Before delivery is committed, we review the receiving window, unloading responsibilities, and available staging area with your team. The approved layout and component list are used to agree the installation sequence; a phased approach is assessed against your shipping schedule rather than promised automatically. Any changes to pallet weights, handling equipment, or inventory mix are reviewed before loading the completed system. Keep the configuration and capacity information with the operating team so later beam moves or added levels are checked against the rated arrangement.
