Features of galvanize(zinc)

Zinc is easy to dissolve in acid or alkali, thus it’s also called double character metal. Zinc hardly change in dry air. In wet air, the surface will have special chemical which can prevent surface from rust. Thus zinc or galvanize is widely used in surface treatment of metal product.

In modern racking & shelving industry and retail industry, shelving and racking system play a more and more important role.  Under the development of modern industry, logistic volume increased a lot. To manage warehouse more effective and improve warehouse function, end customers not only require racking & shelving system to be more flexible and automatical.

Retail industry also want the display to be not only a storage solution, but also a promotion advertisement for items. Thus retail industry require the shelving system to be more attractive for customers, with beautiful color & convenient display and storage.

Several factor affect cost of racking:

1.       Racking structure & specification and loading capacity

2.       Manufacturing process and quality management

3.       Tax, rent, worker’s salary

4.       material of racking

General speaking, post beam and shelf should be the factor determine price.

Drive in racking is also called drive through racking. It’s a indivisible and continuous racking system. Pallet locates by depth direction on pallet support rail one by one. This make high density storage come true.

Drive in racking use pallet for storage, it’s suitable for single items with large quantity. Compare with pallet racking, it can increase warehouse usage by more than 30%. It’s one of the most high efficiency storage racking system. All the pallets are loading/unloading from same side. First in last out, Reach truck can easily drive into racking to loading/unloading. It’s widely used in cold store, food, cigarette.

Drive in racking is design to storage same items for large quantity, the design is more complex than normal pallet racking. Drive in racking has 4 major component : upright frame, pallet support rail, support arm and various bracing.

Several basic points you should know to purchase drive in racking.

1.       Pallet size, entry direction, and loading capacity of pallet.

2.       Warehouse size height and other information like door location, pillar location.

3.       Forklift specification used in warehouse.

As a professional drive in racking and shelving supplier, T Racking successfully built more than 200 drive in racking system domestically and internationally. Any relative question feel free to contact us at sales@racking-shelving.com

4) Material Handling Equipment.

  The loading/unloading job of warehouse is done by material handling equipment. Thus when end customers choose storage racking and shelving systems, he should also consider material handling equipment. Stacker is the most popular handling equipment. Width and depth of racking system is the major factor which affect the model & size of stacker. In other hand loading capacity and lifting height should be also considered.

5) In/out warehouse quantity

  Some racking system has high storage density, but turnover rate is very low, which is only suitable for low frequency storage. In these years most end users require high turnover rate to save logistic cost. Thus designer should consider turnover rate carefully

The design of racking & shelving steel structure is very complex. If the design is not properly, it will either bring in hidden trouble of safety for customer or waste material or increase the cost of customer.

The design process is as below:

Traditional design is base on manual. It divided to initial design and technical design. Under the premise of racking mechanics, designer should reflect the storage purpose with as less/simple as possible of storage unit. Under reach the reliability and rigidity of system. IE: For high upright frame, we can choose different material thickness for different section of frame, 1.8mm for top section, 2.0 for middle section and 2.3 for bottom section. Secondly, choose suitable beam and post specification to make best design effect and most cost effective solution.

As a reliable supplier, T Racking already finished more than 1000 warehouse racking & shelving for different customers, any relative feel free to contact us at sales@racking-shelving.com

The Design key point of pallet racking and steel structure.(1)

The major key points of racking and shelving system should be as below:

1.       Steel Structure.

When we design the size of pallet racking system, we should notice the effective height of room and pillar, the loading capacity and of floor and whether it is aclinic. Also we should consider the position of fire fighting equipment and lighting equipment.

2.       Features of product storage(size, weight, qty, sku)

Size and weight is the major points which affect material & strength of pallet racking system.

Storage qty and SKU should be also considered when design the whole racking system.

The estimated quantity should also consider the future growth in the next 3 years.

3.       Loading/unloading management.

Usually the 2 points is contrary. That’s is to say, to make high storage density, the loading job will be more complex. Although some special racking could make the balance, but the storage management system is much more complex. Of course AS RS system is a good solution to solve the problem, but the cost is also extremely expensive. Most of customer couldn’t afford it.
