Tite Rack is a vertical storage system designed for safe and compact slab storage of marble, granite, engineered stone and ceramic slabs.
Semi-Auto Tite Rack from BACA Systems, a vertical slab storage system offering compact, customizable, and safe solutions for stone fabricators.
Tailored for storing granite, quartz, ceramic, and marble slabs, our solution redefines efficiency by allowing fabricators to store four times the quantity of slabs compared to conventional A-Frame storage. In a landscape where real estate costs are a crucial consideration, our innovative design ensures that warehouse space is utilized more efficiently, providing fabricators with a cost-effective storage solution.
Each element has a 5-degree inclination to increase the stability of stored slabs, ensuring a secure storage environment and enhancing safety during handling. Tite Rack systems are equipped with protective measures, featuring light curtains on the front side. These curtains automatically halt system movement if an operator attempts to enter while the system is opening, providing an additional layer of safety.
Each RACK can be customized in width to store different quantities of slabs. Minimum rack width is 14CM and maximum rack width is 45CM. Most common width of each rack is 45CM and can store (22) 2CM slabs OR (14) 3CM slabs.
Semi-Auto Tite Rack’s come in 3 standard sizes: Tite Rack 264, Tite Rack 528 & Tite Rack 792. Systems can be fully customized to meet different fabrication shop requirements i.e., to any length, different quantity of racks, and different rack sizes.
Simple mechanical lever is used to select the desired rack of slabs.
Omega Flip System allows the operator to safely fold slabs forward giving easy access to the slabs that are further back in the bundle. This option includes the supply of 2 OMEGA rails, 4 removable tubes/supports and 2 special sensors that prevent the Tite Rack from operating while the supports are inside the machine.
The corridor moves up and down the Tite Rack allowing for easy access to the desired rack of slabs.
