Metal pallets are one of the common logistics equipment in logistics transportation and storage turnover, and it is also one of the most frequently used storage equipment in conjunction with storage shelves. The use of metal pallets makes it easier to directly move the goods in the storage shelves with a forklift, which not only provides work efficiency but also saves manual handling costs.
Then heavy shelves, through shelves, shuttle shelves, smart shelves, etc. need to combine their own characteristics, according to different storage needs, choose different material pallets. Pallets are roughly divided into metal materials, wood, plastic, There are four kinds of materials.
1. Heavy shelves, heavy shelves are typical of using metal pallet shelves.
A typical group of such shelves can have 2-3 metal pallets placed side by side for the needs of delivery. This type of shelf is often called a pallet rack. Pay attention to some issues when using metal pallets for heavy shelves. First of all, we must determine the position between the good metal pallets and have a proper space to facilitate the operation of the forklift. Secondly, we should put the metal pallets neatly on the beams of the shelves as much as possible to handle the relationship between the goods and the metal pallets. Avoid safety accidents. Expansion screws must be installed at the bottom of the pallet rack to ensure the stability of the pallet rack.
2. As a kind of automated racking system, shuttle pallets store the pallets placed on it in depth position. Plastic pallets are the main type of pallets. They are similar to the through racks in the cargo space.
The basic principle of the shuttle rack is: the rack and the movable shuttle car form a simple unit, and this unit can be moved in the warehouse. Shelves with shuttles inside are controlled by a front console. The forklift lifts up the rack (including the shuttle) and places it on the center console of the designated rack. The forklift then placed the inbound pallets on the shuttle to begin the storage operation. When the forklift wants to store the next pallet, the shuttle will quickly and stably transport the pallet to the designated storage location in the shelf.
3. The use of penetrating shelves, penetrating shelves are the masters of using pallets.
Because the through rack is a continuous rack that is not separated by aisles, it uses trays to be continuous, which also reduces obstacles and maximizes the ability to store goods. In use, the trays can be arranged in one direction and two directions. The total shelf depth in one direction (near the wall) is best controlled within 6 pallet depths, and the total depth in both directions (the middle area can be picked up on both sides) is best controlled within 12 pallet depths to improve forklift access efficiency And reliability. As for the choice of metal trays or plastic trays, we can consider it in our own comprehensive consideration before determining.
