The mobile bases can be controlled by both manual and automatic inputs due to the incorporation of a dedicated RF (radio frequency) system. Manual operations can be carried out via the use of a remote control, and the main control console is used to initiate programmed sequences.

Safety is of course paramount to an automated system such as this, with the setup being equipped with photoelectric beams mounted to each of the mobile racks on the outer sides, ensuring that if an operative moves in front of the bases whilst the system is in operation then the racking will immediately stop moving and the system will shut off.

Remote diagnostics for troubleshooting issues are also available – allowing Kawneer’s engineers to fix any minor issues that may occur during operation – ensuring maximum up-time.

Although a mobile racking system like this may seem like an expensive option, it serves as a great alternative to costly relocation or warehouse expansion plans. Mobile systems can also allow for the usage of up to 80% of the intended installation space, making this a highly intelligent solution for those who choose it.
