  • Continuous side panels with sloped order-picking shelves available (inclination: 6 & 15°)
  • Special designs on request
TYPE HEAVY LOAD
  • For particularly high loads (300 kg/sqm)
  • Maximum field width: 3,800 mm
  • All components completely screwed together
  • Usually bolted to shelf uprights or adapters

UNIVERSAL UPRIGHT ADAPTER 230 MM
  • Fits on 90 % of all racking systems
UPRIGHT ADAPTER
  • For connecting the AQS flowframes on to all types of rack uprights
  • Designed to suit the respective rack system
  • Quick assembly
  • Standard height: 1,800 mm
  • Keyhole on the side (adjustment in 20 mm increments)

ROLLER TRACKS

STANDARD ROLLER TRACKS
  • Torsion-resistant, self-stabilising profile made of galvanised steel coil
  • Lengths accurate to the nearest mm according to customer requirements, maximum single length: 6,000 mm but up to 20,000 mm possible with connected sections
  • Roller pitch 33 mm: with best running properties due to the geometry (32 mm diameter roller)
  • Optional Roller pitch 28 mm: for the smallest stored goods
  • Rollers can be used mixed, overall height: generally 36 mm
  • Material: high-quality plastic (natural white)
  • Standard rollers are also suitable for freezer conditions.
  • ESD version available (highly conductive rollers)
  • Bearing on steel axles for longer service life, quiet running and high load capacity (12 daN)
