Warehouse rack design requirements

A brief summary of several points that should be noted when selecting storage shelves

(1) Plant structure

When the storage equipment is selected for the shelf, the effective height under the beam must be considered to determine the shelf height. The position of the beam and column will affect the configuration of the shelf. The strength of the floor and the flatness of the floor are also related to the design and installation of the shelves. Also consider the installation location of fire protection facilities and lighting.

The shape and size of the stored items are directly related to the selection of the shelf specifications. The weight of the stored items directly affects the strength of the shelf. The units to be stored are stored in any unit, and the pallets or storage cages or items have different shelf selection types. In addition, the estimated total number of storage digits must take into account the company's growth needs in the next two years. This information can be obtained through analysis of the storage system, or we can ask our Heda shelf to give some professional advice before design.

(3) Accessibility

General accessibility and storage density are relative. That is to say, in order to obtain a higher storage density, it is necessary to sacrifice the accessibility of the article. Although some types of shelves can obtain better storage density, their storage management is more complicated, and it is often impossible to control the FIFO. The best is that the three-dimensional automatic warehouse can be developed upwards, with excellent accessibility and storage density, but the relative investment cost is relatively expensive. Therefore, what type of storage device is chosen is a compromise between various factors and a strategy application.

(4) Handling equipment

The access operation of the storage device is done by the handling device. Therefore, the selection of storage equipment requires consideration of handling equipment. The stacker is a universal handling device, and the shelf channel width will directly affect the selection type of the stacker, which is a counterweight or a narrow channel.

(5) Inbound and outbound volume

Although some shelves have a good storage density, but the amount of storage and delivery is not high, suitable for low-frequency operations. The high volume of inbound and outbound storage is very important data, which is a consideration for the choice of shelf form.
