The patent-pending solution enhances order-picking speed and accuracy by easily segregating SKU lanes across multiple carton flow types
Mallard Manufacturing, a gravity flow storage solutions provider, introduces new Slim-Fit (patent-pending) full-length dividers for wheeled carton flow systems. This custom-engineered product redefines efficiency and flexibility in carton and tote storage and picking applications. The full-length dividers click into specially designed holders, creating SKU slots of any width and maximizing shelf space for edge-to-edge storage.
“We are thrilled to introduce the new Slim-Fit divider for our wheeled carton flow products,” said Kevin Risch, President of Mallard Manufacturing. “This innovation reflects our commitment to addressing customer needs with advanced gravity flow solutions that enhance efficiency and help control operational costs.”
Product Features:
- A thin profile allows more SKU lanes
- Adjustable in 0.17” increments, eliminating wasted space
- Mirrored image divider brackets speed accurate slotting & reslotting
- Five color choices – mix and match
- Secure fit double-action locking – won’t dislodge
The Slim-Fit full-length carton flow divider offers several key advantages over other lane segmenting accessories:
- Enhanced SKU Capacity: The narrow divider profile and adjustability within 0.17-inch increments ensure optimized shelf use to accommodate more SKU lanes.
- Innovative Bracket Design: Mirrored image divider brackets on the load and pick ends of the flow tracks facilitate faster, accurate slotting and reslotting, streamlining warehouse processes.
- Secure and Durable: The divider’s double-action locking mechanism ensures a secure fit, preventing accidental dislodging.
- Color-Coding Options: Available in five colors—blue, yellow, red, orange, and grey—the dividers enable easy color-coding of picking applications, further improving accuracy and speed.
- Worker Safety: The rounded-edge design and protective powder-coated finish prioritize worker safety by minimizing the risk of cuts and injuries. Despite their durability, the dividers remain lightweight, facilitating easy lifting and repositioning for swift and effortless reprofiling.
- Compatibility: The dividers are compatible with Mallard’s entire range of wheeled carton flow rack products, Dyna-Flo, Dyna-Flo HD (heavy-duty), and Dyna-Deck replacement tracks.
- Positive ROI: Depending on the application, pick rates typically range from 50 to 150 pick lines per hour, with an average of approximately 70. Saving 2 seconds per pick may not initially seem significant. Still, when extrapolated across each worker, hour, day, week, and year, it results in not only a highly efficient picking operation but also a favorable ROI.
- Industries that benefit from the efficiencies of carton flow rack include Retail, Grocery, Medical, Pharmaceutical, Health & Beauty, Auto, Electronics, and E-commerceFull-length lane dividers enhance carton flow function for popular applications such as:
- Order Picking
- Parts Storage
- Assembly/Kitting
