Compact Storage Units (CSUs) are simple, strong and versatile.
They pack a huge amount of easy-access storage into a footprint hardly bigger than a Euro pallet (1206mm x 880mm). A rigid steel frame with slotted uprights allows for customisation. Ideal for either stationary, movable or mobile storage of mostly smaller items which will be handled manually.
CSUs benefit from a modular construction and a big range of accessories, so they’re adaptable to meet your particular needs. Have all your components exactly where you need them!
All 40 of these 400mm x 300mm boxes will fit into a single CSU
This picture shows how many different articles can actually be stored separately in a CSU in typical configuration, with 5 shelf layers. In this example we’ve used strong, roomy plastic boxes, each 400mm x 300mm, which will hold generous stocks of smaller items. Each shelf holds 8 of these boxes, giving
a total of 40 storage locations in one square metre! We also offer smaller boxes, so by choosing 200mm x 150mm boxes, you can quadruple the
number of articles in the same area.
Reduce walking/picking distances
An example with 30 picking locations in different layouts.
Standard pallet racking with 1 picking level = 30m, 30 picking locations
Smart Storing solution with Pull-out units = 10m 30 picking locations
Smart Storing solution with Compact Storage Units = 6m 30 picking locations
Compact storage frame
The frame is a rigid steel box with pre-drilled holes on the uprights at 30mm centres for fitting shelves according to your specifications. Available in two formats, depending on which side the pull-out shelves slide out: short-side forward and long-side forward.
Pull-out capacity compact storage unit
There are three choices to pull out the shelf. The shelves are covered with sheet metal of strong galvanized steel sheet and have 12mm edges around. The size of the plane is 800x1200mm which is a standardized EUR measure, which makes it suitable for Euro boxes and accessories for pallet racks. The shelves have a maximum load of 150kg or 200kg.
Number of Shelves
The tables show you what clearances to expect between shelves for a given number of shelves per unit, assuming even spacing. Shelves can also be spaced unevenly if desired. For more information, please consult product data sheets or contact us.
Shelf lock
Unless you bolt the CSU to the floor, it is essential to add a shelf lock, which prevents more than one shelf being pulled out at once, so the unit doesn’t get tipped over.
