Heavy duty rack also known as pallet rack, is the most widely used type of warehouse storage rack. It is popular with companies because of its high loading capacity and low cost. Pallet rack is widely used in various industries such as electronics and communications, home building materials, clothing and automotive. Depending on different type of goods, they can be fitted with functional accessories such as beam support, steel decking, rails, etc.
The structure of pallet rack is safe and reliable and can be adjusted in any combination, so that access to the goods does not have to follow the principle of sequence. It is suitable for pallet storage and forklift access, and there is no restriction on handling tools. In practice, it is also possible to set column protector and safety barrier to prevent collisions with forklift trucks.
The height of the column can reach 12 meters and it is characterized by high inertia, heavy loads and high impact resistance. This is due to the use of cold forming technology after automatic punching, which avoids the possibility of the column cracking and failing due to stress concentration, with a maximum load capacity of 5 tons on a single level.
The pallet rack is mainly consisted of two parts – upright frame and beam. The main structure of upright frame is made up of two single column and cross bracings. And the beam, on the other hand, is a box beam with two connectors in the end. The height of the beam can be freely adjusted by the punching holes in the column.
According to the steel structure design regulations, it makes full use of the load resistance capacity of the material and has the characteristics of light weight, high load capacity and low cost.
