Pallet racking: the most widely used application
Adjustable beam racking is the most widely used pallet storage system because a great variety of goods can be packed, transported and stored on pallets. Pallet racks are used in innumerable branches of industry and commerce making stock rotation fast and costeffective. Saar Lagertechnik plan and build universal solutions with

the XL Pallet Racking system. This system offers a wide range of applications covering a vast spectrum for storing goods of all shapes and weights. XL Pallet Racking is a functional system that ensures easy access and protection from damage. Whether for a high rise rack or a simple storage unit, the unique way in which the beams interlock with the frames ensures a rigid
connection, guaranteeing stability and safety. Our brochure “XL Pallet Racking� will give you comprehensive technical information.

Narrow aisle racking for compact storage
8
saar Narrow aisle racking saar lagertechnik
When used for narrow aisle racking, XL Pallet Racking not only provides all the advantages of normal pallet racking, but also generates 50% more storage space, since the aisle widths can be reduced to a minimum. The forklift trucks used for narrow aisle racking can store pallets up to 12m high. Installations that are higher than 12m are serviced by stacker cranes. Such special handling equipment is particularly viable in fully-automated,
computer-guided warehouses. For this type of storage, organisational numbering systems, using numbers or codes to determine exactly where each pallet is to be placed, are needed. Saar Lagertechnik will integrate a numbering system into the racking to suit your logistics. In addition to having direct access to every pallet, narrow aisle racking also gives the operator fast movement, improved order-picking and simpler stock management.

Drive-in Racking: ideal for bulk storage
10
saar Drive-in Racking saar lagertechnik
Where goods of the same type are stored in bulk and selectivity and stock rotation are not critical factors, Drive-in racking is ideal first-in, last-out. Better space utilisation is achieved because drive-in racking saves space in the depth and height, without needing extra aisles. Space savings can be enormous, almost equalling block storage so that storage space can be increased up to 70%.
A special characteristic of this system is that the pallets are stored in the width on runners. These runners extend the full depth of the rack, and the forklift trucks drive into the structure to deposit or retrieve pallets. The runners are fixed to short carrying arms. For drive-in racking as well, Saar Lagertechnik use the XL Pallet Racking from Link 51.

Mobile storage: maximum storage, minimum floorspace

saar Mobile storage saar lagertechnik
Mobile storage installations are suitable for many products. Although the initial costs are high, mobile storage can be more efficient and therefore advantageous because floorspace is used more effectively.
especially suitable in temperaturecontrolled warehouses. XL Pallet Racking and the Sipag cantilever racking system have shown themselves worldwide to be particularly adaptable to this type of storage.
The racks are mounted on chassis driven by electric motors that can move up to 500 tones at a time. Aisles are opened by simply pressing a button, making fast access to the goods immediately possible. Mobile racking is

Live storage: "first in - first out�
14
saar Live storage: "first in - first out� saar lagertechnik
Live storage is the ideal format where products need to be stored and despatched on a first-in, firstout basis. Pallets are loaded onto inclined lanes of gravity rollers. When a load is retrieved from the picking face, the next pallet rolls into position, so that the goods are unloaded in the same sequence as they were loaded.
This type of storage plays an important role with perishable goods. Live storage is used in both manufacturing and distribution because the economic aspect is remarkable. Once again, the XL Pallet Racking system is the professional answer to all requirements.

Longspan: for heavy, hand loaded goods
Longspan is a brilliantly engineered storage system particularly suitable for heavy or bulky items. With only three parts - frames, beams and a variety of shelves - Longspan can solve unusual storage problems both in the width and height. Longspan racking is similar to pallet racking, as it consists of frames and a selection of clip-in
16
beams to accommodate different loading requirements. Thanks to the secure way the beams lock into the frame, a rigid structure is created that does not need bracing. The beams can be equipped with steel panels, profile panels and various strengths of chipboard. Wide bays, good space utilisation
in the depth and height, low procurement and installation costs characterise the Longspan storage system. Frames with a range of heights and depths and beams suited to different loading requirements make Longspan a versatile, clip-together, wide bay shelving system for professional storage.

Cantilever racking for long items
Cantilever racking is intended to store long items, planks and other cumbersome goods and in particular long profiles, metal and plastic pipes as well as beams or wooden beading. Cantilever racking is important where fast and simple access to a wide range of goods is called for. As there is a precisely calculated deflection factor for unilaterally loaded cantilever racks, we use conical uprights made of cold rolled steel. This obviates any hazardous narrowing of the operating aisles. Cotter pins give the load-bearing arms a powerful
20
connection to the frames so that they cannot be dislodged. Individual, computer-guided calculations make uprights of 12m in height possible, as well as arms up to 3m long. Depending on the centre of gravity, loads of up to 280KN (28 to) per side or 43KN (4.3 to) per arm can be achieved. Because the goods stored exert high load stress, all components have been calculated with a safety factor of 5:1 (relative to the yield stress of the steel) and therefore exceed the demands made by regulations.
Edge protection, upright protectors and surface protection make certain that the installations keep their good appearance for a long time. As an alternative, we offer a stabile and reliable system made of hot rolled steel profiles. Arms can be adjusted at increments of 100mm. Our special product brochure will give you detailed technical information and applications for cantilever racking.

Multi-tier storage platforms - also suitable for customers Multi-tier storage platforms can be constructed on pallet racking, shelving installations or steel structures. The racking or the steel structure forms the foundation on which the platform is installed. A floor of steel profiled panels galvanised or painted - is laid out over the entire structure. On top of this we lay chipboard to form a perfectly closed floor. Multi-tier racking installations offer optimum room dividers and at the same time making full use of the height of your building. What's more, this type of storage does not need expensive handling equipment. Wooden handrails and aluminium liners to cover the edges give an attractive finish to the platforms, so that they can even be used for the buying public. At the same time they guarantee safety. Nowadays it is important to create functional, ergonomic but also attractive working conditions. The wide range of Saar Lagertechnik's accessories make a large number of different applications possible.

Rackclad warehouses: complete turnkey projects
If you are thinking of extending an existing warehouse or building a new one, then a rackclad warehouse structure might be an excellent alternative. A rackclad warehouse offers organised storage without the expensive of a conventional warehouse building with racking, because the racking acts as the basic construction element for roof and walls. The racking is anchored to concrete base plates, obviating the need for foundations. Roof and
26
walls can be built with a single or multiple skin with corresponding insulation making it warmer in winter and cooler in summer. This method of building incorporates the latest engineering techniques and complies with current building regulations. In accordance with the customer's wishes doors, gates, automatic entry points, loading ramps, lighting, smoke extractors, etc can be added.
Fast construction time, low construction costs, durability and no expensive foundations are the outstanding advantages of choosing this solution. Rackclad structures can also be advantageously written off, since they are storage installations with roofing and walls and not buildings. Saar Lagertechnik offer a costeffective, turnkey modular construction system.
