GUIDING RAILS FIFO
Build a FIFO Station based on need while saving space with
FATH Guiding Rails FIFO
• Modular system – scalable at any time
• Extra wide, break-proof insertion caps
• Upward-facing profile slots for
cost-effective enclosure
• Floating installation without screwed joints
• Space-saving thanks to onesided rail guide
• Easy and fast threading of dollies
HIGHLIGHTS
Due to the modularity, the FIFO station can be flexibly adapted in
length and width. - you can set it up exactly according to individual
requirements and expand it at any time. The Guiding Rails FIFO are
bolted together with connecting plates directly at the infeed caps.
This connecting element ensures stability and specifies the track
width. The number of tracks can be selected as required.
For the desired track length, the individual Guiding Rails FIFO are
joined together with a longitudinal connector. Available are the
standard lengths 1200, 1800 and 2400 mm and on request in the
length you require.
The FATH Guiding Rails FIFO are laid in a floating manner. The FIFO
track does not have to be screwed to the floor to rest securely, which
protects the hall floor. The rails are held by the dead weight of the
dollies. For special requirements, bolting to the floor is optionally
possible, the holes are integrated in the insertion caps.
EFFICIENT
MATERIAL
SUPPLY
One guide rail per track is sufficient for the safe placement of the
dollies. The side on which the Dolly is guided can be freely selected.
For three tracks, for example, only three Guiding Rails are required.
This reduces costs, saves space and offers additional flexibility.
INNOVATIVE: EXTRA WIDE INSERTION CAPS FOR EASY THREADING
OF DOLLIES
FATH has redesigned the infeed caps for even more efficiency in handling the Dollies. The extra
wide designed opening acts like a funnel and makes loading the FIFO station much easier. Even
if the rollers are not visible at all under the boxes, they can be threaded effortlessly into the rail.
Employees can perform this step intuitively – the workflows are fluid and easy on the back.
The insertion caps are mounted at the front and rear end of each track. This allows the FIFO principle (First-In-First-Out) to be implemented perfectly - for an optimized internal flow of goods.
ANOTHER
STRONG PLUS:
The FATH infeed caps for the FIFO
station are manufactured using the
aluminum die-casting process and,
unlike conventional plastic caps, are
break-resistant.
