Pallet Flow
3D Storage Systems offer a wide range of dynamic flow products which are engineered to meet specific needs. The key to successful flow systems is developing a solution that is customized to the type of product to be stored, the pallet type, the environment and the function required by the system.
The design staff at 3D Storage Systems have many years of experience in the supply and installation of dynamic storage products. They will configure the appropriate components to meet specific customer criteria, ensuring maximum system performance.

Skatewheel – Typically used in two or three deep picking systems either in single runs or in double staggered runs as shown here. The steel wheels are constructed of 15 gauge material and are load-rated at 150 pounds. Wheels are mounted at 1 ½” centers when double staggered, and 2” or greater when used in single lines. Channel supports are constructed of 1”x 3” 1”, 12 gauge galvanized steel channel. Ramp stops and anti-rollback devices are standard. |

Polycarbonate Tracks
These wheel tracks are used in deep lane (4-24 pallets deep) pallets flow and utilize the following components:
- Impact Wheels – Cast zinc impact wheels are typically placed in the first 12” of the lane to provide superior resistance to damage fro pallet impact.
- Polycarbonate Wheels – These 2.875” diameter wheels have steel ball bearings are are typically configured on 2” or 3” centers. Wheels are load rated at 150 pounds. These wheels are most commonly used for GMA or CHEP pallets and are generally mounted in a three track configuration with the center track containing speed controllers. The special polycarbonate formula is suited to wide temperature ranges and is resistant to impact.
- Indirect Mounted Brakes – Our indirect brakes provide a superior braking surface with increased friction, using two rubber coated contact rollers.
- Pallet Stops – Our stops are constructed from structural steel, enabling them to withstand impacts from heavy pallets and forktruck abuse. The stops are manufactured with a gentle ramp slope that brings the loaded pallet to a stop in a smooth and controlled manner.

| Steel Rollers – Rollers range in size from 1.9” to 2.5” in diameter and 4” to 56” BFR (Between Frames Rails). Rollers ensure stability as well as providing large load bearing capacity and support for special pallets, steel containers or plastic totes. Channel supports are constructed of 1” x 3” x 1”, 12 gauge or 1.5” x 4” x 1.5”, 10 gauge galvanized steel channel depending on the application. |
