The layout of storage racks is the main content of large-scale storage. The passageway woven by storage racks is indirectly related to the safety of staff and the work efficiency of the enterprise. In fact, whether vertical crossing, diagonal crossing, radial, free circulation, or direct layout methods are used, certain flexibility should be reserved for changes in work operations, so as to adjust the layout of storage racks according to needs. So in order to ensure the safety of staff and facilitate the storage and retrieval of goods, the spacing between warehouse racks must be reserved reasonably. So, what is the general spacing between warehouse racks? What issues should we pay attention to?
The width design between racks is important. If the aisle is too large, it will waste space. If the aisle is too small, it will cause problems in the flow of goods. Therefore, the distance between storage racks should ensure smooth passenger flow. The design of storage racks should ensure that there is an appropriate area and space for the display of goods so that goods can be effectively arranged in a suitable queue.
Installation of warehouse racks
If it is a purely manual handling operation, the distance between storage locations should be greater than the width of the maximum packaging box used on the storage location+20cm; If pallets need to be placed at the bottom of the storage location, and the upper layers are manually handled, the distance between the storage locations is the rotatable diameter of “manual forklift+pallet”+20cm; if the storage location needs to be handled by electric forklift, the distance between the storage locations is the rotatable diameter of “electric forklift+upper pallet”+turning safety distance; If a fuel forklift is required for the storage location, the distance between the storage locations is the rotatable diameter of the “fuel forklift+upper pallet”+turning.
There is no specific numerical regulation for the spacing of warehouse racks. It is necessary to determine and calculate a reasonable rack spacing based on the type of warehouse goods and transportation tools, in order to facilitate the work of staff and ensure their safety. The calculation of warehouse rack spacing can be roughly based on the above situation, and several situations can also be combined. Different storage location distances can be used to set up and save storage locations.
