What is Span-Track?
Think of Span-Track like a conveyor belt for your warehouse shelves. It’s a full-width roller or wheel bed system that makes product movement smoother and faster.
Installed onto your existing pallet racks, it ensures first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory rotation, meaning older stock gets used first. No more wasted products, no more confusion—just smooth, efficient picking.
Why Span-Track is a Game Changer
1. Say Goodbye to Wasted Space
Ever feel like your warehouse racks aren’t being used to their full potential? That’s because they probably aren’t! Traditional storage leaves empty gaps and underutilized areas. Span-Track fixes this by maximizing vertical and horizontal space, keeping everything organized and accessible.
2. Speed Up Order Picking
When workers have to search for products, it slows everything down. With Span-Track, items automatically move to the front of the rack, cutting down on search time and making picking faster and easier.
3. Less Strain, Lower Labor Costs
Warehouse work is challenging. If your employees constantly reach, bend, and search for items, they’ll get exhausted quickly.
Span-Track makes products easy to grab, reducing physical strain and increasing efficiency. That means happier employees and lower labor costs.
4. Protect Your Products
Nothing’s worse than losing money to damaged goods. With Span-Track’s smooth flow system, products don’t get jammed or dropped, meaning less damage and fewer losses.
5. FIFO Inventory Made Easy
If you deal with perishable goods or time-sensitive products, Span-Track is necessary. It ensures that older stock gets used first, so you’re not left with expired or unsellable inventory.
How to Integrate Span-Track in Your Warehouse
1. Assess Your Storage Setup
Take a good look at where your warehouse slows down the most. Where do employees spend the most time searching? Which areas feel cluttered? These are the best places to start with Span-Track.
2. Pick the Right Span-Track Type
Not all Span-Track systems are the same! Choose based on what works best for your products:
- Full-width rollers: for heavy or uniform items
- Wheel beds: for different-sized cartons
- Tilted designs: for optimal picking angles
3. Track Your Results and Adjust
After installation, monitor picking speed, storage capacity, and employee efficiency improvements. If something’s not working, adjust the setup to make it even better.
