Small-Parts Warehouse

What is a Small-Parts Warehouse?

A small-parts warehouse is a warehouse for small items with a high turnover rate suitable for storing small parts using small-parts bins. Unlike a high-bay warehouse, a small-parts warehouse is usually automated. It is also known as an automated small-parts warehouse.

In a mini-load warehouse, small parts items are stored quickly, flexibly, space-saving and with full use of the room height in cartons, trays, plastic boxes and other containers. The small-parts storage systems are used in almost all branches of trade and industry.
