# Carton Flow Rack in Catoosa, OK

Carton flow rack in Catoosa turns selected case inventory into a defined front-picking area with replenishment behind it. Inclined roller lanes advance cases and compatible totes by gravity, bringing the next container forward as stock is removed. The design should follow the picking task rather than simply maximize storage depth.

For operations handling both bulk receipts and smaller orders, carton flow racking can separate active picking stock from reserve inventory. Lane capacity should match the refill cycle and the items actually moving through the building. Package shape, loaded weight and bottom construction all influence whether a container will travel as intended.

Since 1997, our supplying and installing work has been carried out as a division of Warehouse Equipment & Supplies Co. We help define the storage arrangement, verify retrofit conditions and plan installation access around the work already taking place in the building.

## Making Carton Flow Rack Work at the Lane Level

A case flow rack needs consistent product movement from loading to discharge. Evaluate the whole path using representative containers, including light loads that may not behave like full cases.

1

### Supporting the base

Rollers must support the package throughout its travel. Check carton seams, tote feet and any uneven underside before choosing the support arrangement.

2

### Setting the incline

Lane slope supplies the force that moves stock toward the front. Test travel and presentation with the intended packages rather than assuming one setting suits every load.

3

### Sizing each channel

Choose lane widths with room to load without sacrificing unnecessary bay space. Dividers guide cases and keep adjacent items in separate channels.

4

### Maintaining sequence

Introduce replenishment at the back and pick from the front. This supports FIFO when workers follow the assigned lane and load stock in the intended order.

## Choose Carton Flow Racking for Active Case Picks

Carton flow rack improves pick-face density by storing several cases behind one visible item location. The picker works at the leading container instead of reaching through a shelf for reserve units. Order-picking speed can improve when active items are grouped sensibly and replenishment is handled without competing for the same working space.

The distinction from other storage matters. Shelving suits slower demand, irregular packages and shallow quantities across many items. Pallet flow moves full pallet loads rather than individual cases or totes. Use the format that matches how stock is withdrawn, not just how it arrives at receiving.

### Operations We Rack Around Here

Port-area distribution and manufacturing near the Tulsa Port of Catoosa and I-44 / SH-66 may handle receipts quite differently from outbound case orders. Connections to the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System barge access reinforce the need to plan reserve-to-pick transfers separately from bulk receiving space.

## Checking Carton Flow Rack Fit Before Installation

A carton flow rack retrofit into existing pallet rack bays requires more than measuring the opening. Confirm frame condition, beam connections, elevations and documented loading, then verify compatibility with the proposed flow components. Include pallets stored above the picking levels and the way replenishment equipment approaches the rack in the same planning exercise.

In pick modules, coordinate lane discharge with platform heights and any conveyor receiving picked orders. Position frequent picks where workers can handle the containers without awkward reaches. Reserve enough rear access for the actual replenishment method, whether workers load individual cases or transfer them from another handling unit.

Installation planning should identify a clear unloading route, a material staging area and the portions of the building that must remain in use. Where inbound movements vary, agree how the crew will receive access updates. That preparation avoids turning active replenishment aisles into temporary equipment storage.
