Will flow fit a 20-foot Cudahy plant?

Yes, at two or three levels. Height limits levels, not rotation.

Does flow work in cold rooms?

It does with temperature-rated components, and it cuts aisles in chilled space.

Can lanes go near overhead cranes?

They go in bays without overhead handling, so crane paths stay clear.

Pallet Flow Rack in Cudahy, WI

Price range: $$

Pallet flow rack in Cudahy serves food processors and refrigeration users who need oldest-first shipping in older, lower buildings. Pallets load at the back of a lane and roll forward on rollers to the pick face.

Rotation takes care of itself. We are a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co., a rack supplier and installer since 1997.

Older Cudahy buildings also tend to have uneven floors from decades of use. We check floor levels at each lane location, because rollers need consistent pitch end to end. Shimming at installation keeps the slope true so pallets travel at the speed the brakes were chosen for.

Cudahy Cold Rooms on Pallet Flow Rack

Plants along Packard Avenue and Layton Avenue are often 16 to 24 feet clear. Two or three levels of flow lanes still give true FIFO.

Near Mitchell Airport, industrial refrigeration and food users run cold rooms. Gravity flow rack removes aisles there, shrinking chilled volume.

Metalworkers use flow for steady consumables, loading from receiving and pulling at the shop floor.

Industrial refrigeration users near the airport sometimes run blast freezers feeding storage rooms. Flow lanes accept product from the freezer side and present it to shipping on the other, a clean one-way path that keeps doors closed longer and product colder. We size lane depth to match how many pallets the freezer turns each cycle.

Plants with mixed ambient and frozen product usually get two separate lane blocks, each with its own roller package. That keeps the cold components where they are needed and the ambient lanes simpler to maintain over time.

Pallet Flow Racking in Low and Cold Buildings

Two building types dominate here; each needs its own checks.

Measure height

Usable clear height sets how many lane levels fit.

Spec for cold

Freezer components keep rollers and brakes moving.

Clear the cranes

Lanes stay out of crane and monorail paths.

Phase rooms

Rooms are built one at a time so inventory moves.

Quoting Cudahy Gravity Flow Rack

Cold-room lanes use components rated for temperature, and we confirm forklift handling in that environment.

Older buildings need lanes placed around columns and overhead cranes. We measure first.

Brakes and separators suit your weight range so pallets arrive gently.

Assembly goes to experienced installation crews we schedule and manage, staging winter material indoors.

Packard Avenue buildings often have overhead cranes in production bays. Lane blocks go in bays without overhead handling, usually along exterior walls or in a warehouse wing.

For dairy and frozen users near Layton Avenue, pallet flow rack keeps product rotating oldest-first while cutting aisles in chilled rooms.

Metalworking consumables, like abrasives and gases on pallets, also suit lanes because they ship steadily and do not need to be stored deep for long.

Pallet condition is the leading cause of stalls. We recommend a restack station at receiving for damaged or odd-size pallets.

Lane pitch is set so both light consumables and heavy frozen loads keep moving at a safe speed.

Every quote separates material, freight and installation so options can be compared fairly.
