The principle of a horizontal carousel is easy – it makes optimal use of existing room length if overhead space is missing.
In practice, the optimal warehouse fill rate – in relation to the available storage space – is 80% to (maximum) 90%. Depending on existing building structures and lack of overhead space, Dexion’s HOCA horizontal carousel makes optimal use of the available room depth.
Horizontal carousels guarantee cost-effective warehousing and efficient picking processes. “Keeps everything moving round”. With horizontal carousels, the goods are transported to a picking station at the front of the carousel, fast and with pin-point accuracy. Whether you store small parts in bins or boxes, the Dexion HOCA offers ample space for articles of various dimensions and shapes.
