METHODOLOGY
OF COUNTING
SYSTEMS AND METHODOLOGY OF COUNTING
Some of the most-used
types of counting are cycle
counting, spot counting
(sometimes also known as
ad-hoc or blind
counting), and tag
counting.
SYSTEMS AND METHODOLOGY OF COUNTING
Cycle Counting - is a method
of checks and balances by
which companies confirm
physical inventory counts
match their inventory
records.
SYSTEMS AND METHODOLOGY OF COUNTING
Cycle Counting -cycle
counting is about counting
in cycles. You do not count
your full inventory at once
but do it in parts.
SYSTEMS AND METHODOLOGY OF COUNTING
Ad-Hoc Counting - also
known as spot or blind
counting, refers to inventory
counts which are unscheduled
and unplanned. This inventory
counting method is often used
to rectify inventory record
inaccuracies observed outside
of a counting period.
SYSTEMS AND METHODOLOGY OF COUNTING
TAG COUNTING- A tag
count is the method for
counting all items in a
location. When you
perform a tag count, you
physically tag and count
all items twice by location.
Knowing What
Is Inside The
Warehouse
WAREHOUSE:
is a facility that, along with
storage racks, handling
equipment and personnel and
management resources, allows
us to control the differences
between the incoming flow of
goods (received from suppliers,
production centers, etc.) and
the outgoing flow of goods
(goods being sent to
production, sales, etc.).
WHAT IS INSIDE THE
WAREHOUSE?
•Storage Systems
•Lift Equipment
•Dock Equipment
•Conveyors
•Facility Equipment
•Bins & Containers
•Packaging Equipment
STORAGE
SYSTEMS
STORAGE SYSTEMS
consists of various
systems, such as shelves
and containers, and is
used to store and organize
all equipment and goods.
TYPES OF STORAGE SYSTEMS
STATIC SHELVING
MOBILE SHELVING
PALLET RACKS
INDUSTRIAL SHELVING
MULTI-TIER RACKING
MEZZANINE FLOORING
WIRE PARTITIONS
STATIC SHELVING
• STATIC SHELVES are fitted
into a set position and held in
place to provide a permanent
structure and stability. These
installations are often chosen
for open storage environments
that have a large number of
items which need to be stored,
such as warehouses.
MOBILE SHELVING
• MOBILE SHELVING mobile
aisle shelving, compactus,
roller racking, or rolling
stack, are terms applied
to shelving or storage
units fitted with wheeled
traction systems.
PALLET RACKS
• PALLET RACKS is a material
handling storage aid system
designed to store materials on
pallets (or “skids”). Although there
are many varieties of pallet
racking, all types allow for the
storage of palletized materials in
horizontal rows with multiple
levels. Forklift trucks are usually
required to place the loaded pallets
onto the racks for storage
INDUSTRIAL SHELVING
• INDUSTRIAL SHELVING can
be steel shelving, open or
closed shelving, or heavy duty
shelving.
MULTI-TIER RACKING
• MULTI TIER RACKING it is a
solution in height based on
the long-span shelving system.
It is ideal for manual storage
where available space is
limited. This system provides
excellent maximization of
height by creating different
floor levels accessed by means
of stairways.
MEZZANINE FLOORING
• MEZZANINE FLOORING also
can be called steel platform,
which raises efficiency of
warehouse space usage.
WIRE PARTITIONS
• WIRE PARTITIONS are modular
steel systems that are used for
safety, security, and separation.
LIFT
EQUIPMENT
LIFT EQUIPMENT
refers to the range of
machines and devices used
for lifting, moving, and
storing products within a
warehouse environment. This
category includes warehouse
lift trucks, warehouse lifters,
forklifts, lifting platforms,
and other specialized lifting
machines.
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
FORKLIFT
PALLET JACKS
HAND TRUCKS
PLATFORM TABLES
FORK-MOUNTED LOADLIFTER
LIFTING TOWER
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
FORKLIFT (also called industrial
truck, lift truck, jitney, hi-lo, fork
truck, fork hoist, and forklift
truck) is a
powered industrial truck used to
lift and move materials over short
distances.
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
PALLET JACK is the most
basic form of forklift and is
intended to move pallets in
a warehouse or trailer.
Pallet jacks are some of the
most essential tools found
in warehouses and are used
for transporting small loads
for short distances.
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
HAND TRUCK also known as
a hand trolley, dolly, stack
truck, trundler, box cart, sack
barrow, cart, sack truck, two
wheeler, or bag barrow, is an L-
shaped box-moving handcart with
handles at one end, wheels at the
base, with a small ledge to set
objects on, flat against the floor
when the hand-truck is upright.
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
PLATFORM TABLES
This goods maneuvering
equipment is designed for easy
transportation of heavy and
bulky items. They come in great
use for where carrying heavy
items manually over longer
distances would be unsafe or
strenuous on your body.
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
FORK-MOUNTED LOADLIFTER
is specifically designed for the
safe loading and unloading of roll
cages onto and from articulated
vehicles.
TYPES OF LIFTING EQUIPMENT
LIFTING TOWER
Lifting Tower designed to lift loads
of up to 380 kg (838 lbs) up to a
maximum height of 5 m (16.40 ft).
Lifting towers developed for loading
heavy weights at a great height.
DOCK
EQUIPMENT
DOCK EQUIPMENT
refers to the items used to
assist with the loading and
unloading of materials from
trucks to buildings. Dock
equipment is designed for
efficiency and safety in
docking areas, even after
taking a large degree of
abuse.
TYPES OF DOCK EQUIPMENT
DOCK PLATES & DOCK BOARD
EDGE OF DOCK LEVELERS
YARD RAMPS
DUMP HOPPERS
TYPES OF DOCK EQUIPMENT
DOCK PLATES & DOCK
BOARD
Dock plates and boards bridge
the gap between a trailer or
shipping container and
loading dock so loads can be
moved safely over loading
dock gaps, curbs, and other
obstacles. They create a
smooth transition for manual
pallet jacks, hand trucks, and
foot traffic.
TYPES OF DOCK EQUIPMENT
DOCK PLATES & DOCK
BOARD
An edge of dock leveler (EOD)
is used to bridge the gap from
the edge of a loading area to a
truck or ramp. As opposed to
a dockboard, edge of dock
levelers are fixed to the
loading dock.
TYPES OF DOCK EQUIPMENT
YARD RAMPS
specialty ramps that provide you
with a portable loading dock. You
can move these ramps anywhere
within your shipping and receiving
yard, which ensures that the
forklifts you use can gain quick
access to shipping containers or
trailers.
TYPES OF DOCK EQUIPMENT
DUMP HOPPERS
is a container used to temporarily
store materials such as biomass so
that they can be dumped easily.
Dump hoppers can be used in
biofuels industry to process, dispose
of or relocate materials. Some self
dumping hoppers are attached to
forklifts.
CONVEYORS
CONVEYORS
The main purpose of a
conveyor system is to move
objects from one location to
another. The design allows
for movement of objects that
are too heavy or too bulky for
humans to carry by hand.
Conveyor systems save time
when transporting items from
one location to another.
TYPES OF CONVEYORS
FLEXIBLE CONVEYOR
GRAVITY CONVEYOR
POWER CONVEYOR
LIFT & CAROUSELS
ROLLER CONVEYOR
BELT CONVEYOR
CONVEYORS
FLEXIBLE CONVEYOR used
to solve problems on
transport in such
complicated environment as
warehousing, packing line
and loading/unloading etc,
and can handle all sizes of
boxed packages with flat
bottom.
CONVEYORS
GRAVITY CONVEYOR
are one of the simplest and
affordable types of material
handling systems. They work by
allowing the product to roll
along the upper surface.
CONVEYORS
POWER CONVEYOR
Power conveyor is any conveyor
that requires an external power
source to run. Motorized power
automates the transportation of
goods.
CONVEYORS
LIFT & CAROUSELS
are high-tech systems for
storage organization and
materials handling that save
time, storage space and costs,
enhance safety and
streamlines workflow. Moves
and stores materials vertically
or horizontally
CONVEYORS
ROLLER CONVEYOR
are a series of rollers
supported within a frame
where objects can be moved
either manually, by gravity, or
by power. Ideal for products
with firm, flat bottoms
CONVEYORS
BELT CONVEYOR
consists of two or more
pulleys (sometimes referred to
as drums), with a closed loop
of carrying medium—the
conveyor belt—that rotates
about them. One or both of
the pulleys are powered,
moving the belt and the
material on the belt forward.

where products are and/or can
be stored.
TYPES OF BINS & CONTAINERS
BULK BOXES
also known as bulk
bins, are pallet-sized
boxes used to ship
and store bulk

KNOWING HOW
MUCH IS INSIDE
THE WAREHOUSE
KNOWING HOW MUCH IS INSIDE THE
WAREHOUSE
Warehouse capacity is a
critical factor to consider
when it comes to
warehouse management.
Accurate planning can help
businesses to maximize their
warehouse space utilization
and minimize the cost of
warehouse operations.
KNOWING HOW MUCH IS INSIDE THE
WAREHOUSE
Warehouse capacity is the
amount of space available in
a warehouse for storing goods
and materials.
