Dynamic storage solutions for universal use with short ROI time

Universal
Dynamic storage provides decisive advantages in distribution centers in all sectors of industry: automobile, electronics, shipment of toys, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics distribution, construction materials, drinks and food distribution, etc.

Our customers include brands such as Coca-Cola, Henniez, Daimler-Chrysler, Varta, Dyson, Vespa, Bosch, Schwarzkopf, Toys'R'us, Canon, Texas Instruments, etc.

The ROI time is usually between 18 and 36 months. Dynamic storage provides other financial advantages, such as low maintenance, high performance, space saving, easy stock management and control and a high level of flexibility.

The rollers are specially designed for storage systems. The rollers used in dynamic storage are 60 mm in diameter and the system guarantees a smooth flow for heavy pallets even on long lanes which can carry up to 50 pallets.

A safety separator at the end of the lanes isolates the pallets to be unloaded. It holds the accumulated line of pallets in the lane and prevents the front pallet from being subjected to the pressure exerted by the line of pallets behind.

A speed controller integrated in the rollers limits the running speed of each pallet to 0.3 m/s.

Control: The WMS naturally knows the origin and destination of the incoming and outgoing items and where they are stored, controls the order picking and guides the operators.

The interface with other systems and local networks is very simple to install.

Interroll presents the first speed controller developed specifically for pushback lanes in LIFO configuration. In designing this mechanism, our engineers focused their efforts on the safety aspect of this high-tech element. It also facilitates quicker pallet storage for increased efficiency. The key to success is a speed controller which operates freely during loading and slows the pallet flow during unloading.

This feature is particularly useful in the case of long lanes. With speed controllers working in both directions, the weight of the pallets combined with the resistance of the rollers may prevent the forklift truck from loading the last pallets.

The LIFO speed controller provides essential flexibility: in existing installations, conventional speed controllers can easily be exchanged for Interroll LIFO speed controllers.

In LIFO configuration (Last InFirst Out), a forklift truck loads and unloads the pallets at the picking face. This is a pushback system. To load a pallet, the forklift truck pushes the pallet at the picking face towards the back of the lane using the pallet to be loaded.

When a pallet is unloaded, the pallet stored behind automatically takes its place, thereby ensuring that the goods are constantly available at the picking face.
 

The Interroll Carton Wheel Flow system can be adapted to all types of concept in most sectors of industry. It can be used in conjunction with all types of solution - conveyors, automatic stacker cranes - or to support a "Pick to Light" system.

Customer benefits
Optimum cart flow on innovative Interroll wheel tracks fitted with full-width steel axles
Ergonomically optimised picking processes
Traceability thanks to production coding on each wheel track
Easy stock management based on the FIFO principle
Picking performance increased by up to 65% compared to conventional small parts shelving
Space-saving of up to 35 % compared to conventional small parts shelving
Return on investment within 2 years
Zero energy consumption

Unique wheel track
Optimised cart flow and extraordinary robustness thanks to variable pitches between the wheels on a single track
The greater the load, the better the profile closes: the track does not open under the load

Improved frames
Boltless: the installation of the frames does not require any bolts, thereby reducing the installation time by 30%
Strong loading beam: provides greater stability for wide shelves
Different models of intermediate beams available: perfect adaptation to the load capacity and width of the frames

High level of compatibility and flexibility
Compatibility with all types of shelving due to the universal connector
Can be adapted to all configuration types.

The Flex Flow storage rack guarantees optimised space usage, faster access to stored goods and ergonomically improved storage and picking processes. Specially designed for Kanban systems and assembly lines, the Interroll Flex Flow storage rack is capable of storing over 50 individual product items - offering maximum availability in a dynamic configuration.

As an independent supplier, Interroll offers a product range perfectly tailored to the value creation and requirements of system integrators. It includes installation-friendly sorters which are quick and easy-to-integrate into larger systems.
According to the unit loads conveyed, performance targets and spatial conditions, sorters with either a horizontal configuration (circular structure) or vertical configuration (linear structure) can be employed. International system integrators are reaping the benefits of having Interroll as their partner; a partner who brings their sorter concepts to life.

Batch and sequencing conveying systems for the transport in production, processing and cleaning systems are configured as tailor-made solutions considering specific needs.

Automated inward and outward transportation machinery, vacuum dryers, sluice rooms, tipping and filling stations, metering units and many more complete the robust conveyor lines, which steadily secure the feeding and discharging even of heavy goods according to the specific needs of various work processes.

The subsystem series of Interroll Automation meets current requirements for in-plant materials handling and provides complementary equipment at the focal points of material flow systems.

Regardless of the weight and length of the item being conveyed, the Interroll accumulation roller conveyor will stop the product in a defined position on the accumulating section by means of a non-contacting control. Changes of direction and other demanding handling tasks can be accomplished using subsystems, based on 24 V technology.
