Cantilevered racks are an important type of warehouse racks. It is composed of cantilever installed on the column, which can be fixed or movable.

Cantilevered rack columns are mostly made of H-shaped steel or cold-rolled steel, while cantilevers are made of square tubes, cold-rolled steel or H-shaped steel. The cantilever is connected to the columns through plug-in or bolt connections, and the base is connected to the columns through bolt connections. The base is made of cold-rolled steel or H-shaped steel. Pipes and plates are commonly stored and used. According to the bearing capacity, it can be divided into three types: light weight type, medium weight type, and heavy weight type; According to the structural form, it can be divided into single-sided cantilever racks and double-sided cantilever racks.

Cantilevered racks are suitable for storing long materials, circular materials, plates, pipes, and irregular goods. Cantilevered racks have the characteristics of stable structure, good load-bearing capacity, and high space utilization. The following are the advantages and disadvantages of cantilever racks:

Advantages of cantilever racks:

1. It can fully improve the utilization rate of space, standardize and standardize the management of warehouse materials, and match with stackers or forklifts. It can not only improve the efficiency of material circulation, reduce storage and transportation costs, increase environmental and economic benefits, but also improve the mechanization level of material circulation, reduce labor intensity, and improve labor conditions;

2. Adopting adjustable columns, the spacing between partitions and the addition or subtraction of partitions can be adjusted according to actual needs;

3. The length of cantilever racks can be freely combined according to the site conditions;

4. The cantilever rack series adopts a combination type, which is simple, convenient, safe, and reliable for disassembly, transportation, adjustment, and movement.

Disadvantages of cantilever racks

1. High ground requirements for construction sites

2. High requirements for workers’ safe operation

3. Can only store long materials

4. Relatively high investment costs
