White Systems' Horizontal Carousels
White Systems' Horizontal Carousels
White Systems’ Horizontal Carousel is a high-throughput automated storage solution engineered to deliver fast, efficient access to stored inventory. Ideal for operations with limited vertical space or high picking volume, the system uses a closed-loop horizontal track and rotating bins to bring items directly to the operator—minimizing walking, searching, and strain.
What Sets the Horizontal Carousel Apart
Built for speed and flexibility, White Systems’ Horizontal Carousel is designed to keep high-volume operations moving. Its rotating bins and closed-loop track ensure fast, accurate item retrieval—supporting picking rates of up to 600 lines per hour per operator. Ideal for environments where throughput and efficiency are critical, each system is backed by our experienced U.S.-based service team and integrates seamlessly with inventory software to streamline workflows, reduce operator strain, and keep your operation running at peak performance.
For over 50 years, we have been selling and servicing Horizontal Carousels, offering an efficient and reliable solution for your storage needs. Our Horizontal Carousels feature rotating bins, a closed-loop horizontal track, inventory control software, and barcode scanning for precise and organized storage.
Items are placed onto bins or shelves, which are then loaded onto the track system and assigned specific locations within the carousel. The carousel’s computerized control system determines the location of the requested item and rotates the carousel to bring the desired bin or shelf to the retrieval position. After the items are retrieved, the carousel rotates back to its original position, ensuring that the storage space is maximized and the items are organized efficiently.
Why Choose a Horizontal Carousel?
The Horizontal Carousel is a smart solution for operations that demand speed, accuracy, and efficient use of floor space. By rotating stored inventory directly to the operator, it reduces walking and searching, improving picking accuracy and fulfillment speed. Its ergonomic design minimizes physical strain, while its horizontal footprint and high-density storage configuration free up valuable space by eliminating traditional aisles.
