Although many enterprises use warehouse storage racks in their daily lives, many warehouse staff are still at a loss when they need to find their own warehouse storage rack manufacturers to customize storage racks. Therefore, when customizing storage racks, we need to have a clear understanding of the internal environmental structure of our warehouse and a specific operational model. These will all affect the future layout and overall structural design of heavy-duty racks. Secondly, it is necessary to have a general understanding of the goods stored in the warehouse, knowing that the weight, size, and load-bearing capacity of heavy duty racks, as well as the structure of the storage racks themselves, are affected by the size of the goods. So before customizing a storage rack, we need to first clarify the basic information.
Everyone often says that there is a limit to one’s patience. In fact, whether it is humans, animals, or other inanimate objects, there are certain limits, such as springs. If excessively pulled, they will lose their elasticity and will not rebound; Plastic bottles will deform directly when encountering boiling water; Overweight trucks may cause rollovers and, in severe cases, endanger human life. There are many classifications of storage racks, including cantilever racks, heavy-duty racks, radio shuttle racks, mezzanine floors, etc. Different classifications have different load-bearing capacities, with light ones capable of bearing 500 kg and heavy ones capable of bearing more than 1 ton.
The same applies to storage racks. When customizing, it is important to consider the load-bearing capacity of each storage rack for three reasons:
1. If the storage racks are overloaded, it will put a lot of pressure on the structure of the storage racks, leading to an unstable center of gravity, exacerbating damage to the storage racks, and even posing safety hazards to goods and staff. Slight shaking or storage of goods may cause damage to the storage racks or goods falling, which is extremely dangerous!
2. Overloading the storage racks can directly cause deformation of the storage rack structure, which will reduce the load-bearing capacity and make it difficult to bear heavier goods in the future. If the storage racks deform due to improper operation, it is very uneconomical to have to spend money to purchase new storage racks.
3. Overloading storage racks can directly damage them, shorten their lifespan, and even lead to strikes and system paralysis. Therefore, during the storage process, the carrying capacity of the storage racks should not be exceeded. Light items should be placed on the upper layer, while heavy items should be placed on the lower layer to prevent top-to-bottom weight; Evenly place the goods, operators should not directly enter the bottom of the storage rack when there are goods placed above. Safe and standardized use of warehouse storage racks is also an important way to extend their service life.
Therefore, when customizing storage racks, we should pay attention to the load-bearing capacity of the storage racks. Not only to better protect the storage racks but also to better utilize their functions.
