The material selection for warehouse shelf racks is generally high-quality cold-rolled steel with strong load-bearing and stability. In the design of shelf racks, the hole patterns on the rack columns commonly seen by many are not simply for the sake of aesthetics. So, what is the purpose of the hole patterns on the warehouse shelf rack columns?
Classification of hole patterns for shelf rack columns
The common types in general warehouses are butterfly holes, diamond holes, and tunnel holes, and individual manufacturers may also have their own personalized designs.
Butterfly hole:
From the perspective of appearance design, it looks like a butterfly, so it is named butterfly hole shelf. Generally, it is mostly used for medium-sized longspan shelves, and in addition to the butterfly hole, there is also a design combination of circular holes;
Tunnel hole:
The shelf rack column hole looks like a tunnel, hence it is named a tunnel hole;
Diamond-shaped hole:
Both are designed in a diamond shape, with a diamond-shaped hole design;
In addition, there are also some hole types, such as the gourd hole type, which has emerged in recent years. The inverted eight-character and inverted triangle hole types are relatively ancient and rare on the market.
The role of hole patterns in warehouse shelf rack columns
When it comes to the function of these hole patterns, it is actually very simple, it is used to link the beam and the sub-frame. In addition, the spacing between adjacent holes is equal, mainly to meet the flexible adjustment of space on each layer of the shelf rack, with two main spacing options: 50mm and 75mm. Most warehouse shelf racks use diamond-shaped holes, which are structurally more sturdy and have stronger interface tightness. In addition, the circular hole design on some shelf racks is to reserve a position for safety bolts during installation, thereby ensuring the safety of the shelf racks.
Warehouse shelf racks refer to stretchers used to place goods in warehouses, commonly used in industrial warehouses, with a greater emphasis on upward development and full storage space utilization, with a maximum height of over 40 meters. Generally, supermarket shelves are the peak height, while ordinary warehouse racks are generally 3-5 meters high. It plays a significant role in modern logistics activities, and the modernization of warehouse management is directly related to the types and functions of warehouse shelf racks.
