Frequently Asked Questions
Essential guidance for architects, procurement directors, and warehouse operations managers evaluating high-density storage investments.
1. What is a high-density mobile storage system?
A high-density mobile storage system mounts industrial shelving or pallet racking units onto moving carriages guided along embedded or surface-mounted floor tracks. By removing unnecessary fixed aisles, one moving aisle serves the entire block of shelving, virtually doubling usable inventory capacity in the same square footage.
2. What is the operational difference between mobile storage and static shelving?
Static shelving configurations dedicate up to 60% of floor space to permanent, empty walkways. A mobile storage system compacts all storage modules together, opening an aisle dynamically only when access is required. This allows facilities to reclaim floor area for manufacturing, office footprints, or direct business revenue.
3. What modes of operation are available?
Montel Shelving Inc. manufactures manual-assist systems with ergonomic handles for lightweight loads, mechanical-assist systems with ergonomic 3-spoke SafeCrank handles and gear reduction, and computerized powered-electrical systems with push-button and touchscreen controls featuring active optical safety arrays.
4. What floor preparation is necessary for mobile tracks?
Montel Shelving Inc. offers low-profile surface-mount modular sub-floors with integrated ramp thresholds that do not require concrete trenching or building alterations. For new constructions, recessed rails can be set directly flush with finished concrete slabs. Load capacity and floor levelness are confirmed in our free layout review.
5. How does Montel Shelving Inc. ensure safety in powered aisles?
Our patented SafeAisle® system uses a continuous infrared floor-level photocell sweep that halts carriage movement instantly if a person or small object is detected. Mechanical systems feature gravity-actuated safety brake pins on every crank to prevent unintended movement.
