HANDLING & STORAGE FACTORY FOCUS Slideable storage for ultimate flexibility
BITO Storage Systems has launched a shelving system with a simple but effective sliding design that presents a large number of products at the pick face within a minimal footprint. Smart Slide provides the flexibility to
change pick slot sizes to meet changing needs and adheres to insurers’ requirements for fire regulations. This shelving can provide a 30% saving on floor space, offers a high number of flexible picking slots adjustable in size and location, a dense storage system for slow and fast moving products. It does all of this while producing a cost saving compared to a pallet racking based design for a bespoke picking solution. Based on BITO’s Boltless Shelving
Smart Slide works in a similar way to a sliding wardrobe combining fixed shelving at the rear and a slideable shelving system at the front, allowing pickers to slide the bay to one side to gain access to the full width of each bay at the rear. Each slideable front bay is mounted on castors; its roller mechanism allows it to slide easily and smoothly to one side - stops on the shelves prevent them from impacting into each other. For added flexibility the bay can be released from the roller track which
connects it to the fixed shelving at the rear by pulling down a handle on the mechanism. This allows the bays to be moved for replenishment purposes. Smart Slide shelving includes BITO’s
perforated sprinkler shelf together with mesh sides and backs. In addition to being light in weight the design adheres to legal requirements in terms of fire regulations from insurers. Each shelf can support loads up to 100 kg. A single module of the shelving will

accommodate four standard 600 mm deep x 400 mm high x 300 mm wide containers. With four levels of shelves, the front bay can hold 16 containers. BITO can provide an accompanying
picking trolley which has steps attached. While the front modules are ideal for faster moving product picking, slower moving items which require less frequent access can be located in the fixed 600 mm deep shelving bays at the rear which have smaller ‘pigeon-hole’ locations that can be easily adjusted for size simply by moving the dividers. To full gain access to these locations a picker slides the front bay to one side. The shelves are height adjustable and
the bottom shelf placed at an angle with a kicker at the back to bring boxes further forward to make it easy to pick from. Full-length grab handles on the front bays make it even easier to push and pull them when is fully loaded with product no matter how tall the picker is. They offer support for the picker when reaching down into bottom location.
