The Wine & Oil Temperature-Controlled Warehouse Shuttle Racking Project is a high-density storage solution designed for a temperature-controlled warehouse with a total area of 30,000㎡.
The warehouse is mainly used for storing wine and oil products, which feature large storage volumes, relatively stable product categories, and batch-based inventory management requirements.
To maximize warehouse capacity and improve operational efficiency, Zhuku designed a Shuttle Racking System instead of traditional pallet beam racking. The solution enables dense pallet storage while maintaining safe and flexible storage operations.

Solution: High-Density Shuttle Storage Solution for Temperature-Controlled Warehouse
According to the characteristics of wine and oil storage, Zhuku adopted a high-density shuttle racking solution suitable for large-volume and single-category products.
Compared with traditional pallet beam racking, the shuttle system reduces forklift operation inside storage lanes. Forklifts only operate at the front of the racks, while shuttle vehicles transport pallets automatically to assigned storage positions.
The solution combines:
- Shuttle racking system
- High-density storage structure
- Pallet shuttle vehicles
- Flexible storage channel management
This design improves warehouse utilization, increases operational safety, and optimizes storage efficiency.
System Workflow
1. Pallet Loading
Forklifts place pallets at the front loading position of the shuttle rack.
2. Shuttle Transportation
The shuttle vehicle automatically moves pallets into designated storage positions.
3. High-Density Storage
Pallets are stored continuously inside rack lanes, maximizing warehouse capacity.
4. Pallet Retrieval
According to inventory requirements, the shuttle retrieves pallets and transfers them back to the front operation area.
Main Equipment
Shuttle Racking System
The shuttle racking system is the core storage structure of the project.
Features:
- Deep-lane pallet storage
- High space utilization
- Reduced forklift travel distance
- Suitable for batch storage operations
Pallet Shuttle Vehicle
The shuttle vehicle performs pallet movement inside storage lanes.
Functions:
- Automatic pallet transportation
- Precise storage positioning
- Reduced manual handling
High-Density Storage Structure
The rack system is designed for stable and safe long-term operation.
Advantages:
- Strong structural stability
- Higher safety compared with traditional drive-in racks
- Suitable for temperature-controlled environments
Project Value
Increased Warehouse Utilization
By reducing unnecessary forklift aisles, the shuttle racking system significantly improves storage density, achieving more than 80% warehouse utilization.
Improved Operation Efficiency
Forklifts only operate at the front of storage lanes, while shuttle vehicles complete internal transportation, reducing operation time and improving productivity.
Enhanced Safety
Compared with traditional drive-in and drive-through racks, shuttle racking provides a more stable structure and reduces forklift movement inside rack areas.
Flexible Inventory Management
The system supports both FIFO (First-In First-Out) and LIFO (Last-In First-Out), allowing flexible inventory strategies according to customer requirements.
