Pallet Flow Storage: SK3500 MODURAIL®

What is Flow Storage?

"Flow Storage" consists of two elements, a static rack structure and dynamic "flow rails". . . a track/roller system set at a decline along the length of the rack. The flow rails allow loads to move from the loading end to the unloading end. As a load is removed, the loads behind it move forward to the unloading position.

The flow system depth, height, and width are limited only by the size of your facility and the capabilities of your material handling equipment.

The Flow Storage Concept
SK3500 MODURAIL® Flow Storage Details

The SK3500 MODURAIL® flow rails consist of channels which house interchangeable wheels or rollers. The channel is raised or lowered by the pulsation of forced air in a hose beneath it. When the channel is raised, the load is moved by gravity in a controlled manner. When the channel is lowered, the load sets down upon the rail, braking safely.


Hose inflates, pallets are raised and moved by gravity.


Hose deflates, pallets rest on rails. This positive braking eliminates the need for mechanical brakes, allows varying load weights to be flowed within the same lane!
