Heavy duty shelves versus laminated shelves, which one is most suitable for you?

The difference between heavy-duty shelves and laminated shelves in storage shelves. Heavy duty shelves, commonly known as beam shelves or pallet shelves, are currently the most economical and widely used form of shelves. Due to the heavy weight of the stored items, cooperation with pallets and forklifts is required. Suitable for storing a variety of complex goods, with good product selection, high carrying capacity, and good safety.

The main characteristics of heavy-duty shelves in storage shelves are:

1. Usually, goods are packaged and stored on shelves through unit container equipment such as pallets and storage cages. The load capacity of each unit is generally within 4000kg.

2. It is one of the most widely used shelves, suitable for the vast majority of warehouses or product goods.

3. Has 100% product picking capability. Handling machinery such as forklifts can reach any storage location for convenient and efficient storage operations!

4. Use mechanical handling equipment for storage operations.

5. The span of unit shelves is generally within 4 meters and the depth is within 1.5 meters. The height of shelves in low and high level warehouses is generally within 12 meters, and the height of shelves in ultra-high level warehouses is generally within 30 meters (these warehouses are mostly automated warehouses, and the total height of shelves is composed of several sections of columns within 12 meters).

6. Capable of freely adjusting the height of each layer in multiples of 75mm.

Heavy duty shelves

Heavy duty shelving vs. laminated shelving, Nanjing storage shelving is a type of shelving that is very suitable for storing small and medium-sized shelving. In the category of storage shelving, it may be the most common product. In terms of load-bearing capacity, the load-bearing capacity of each layer of laminated shelves is usually around 200-800KG, which is far from that of pallet shelves with a load-bearing capacity of more than 1 ton per layer; In terms of height, the height of laminated shelves is usually around 2 meters, which is significantly different from high-level shelves; In terms of power, laminated shelves are usually suitable for manual storage and retrieval warehouses, and their power is much lower than heavy-duty shelves for forklift retrieval.

However, although laminated shelves are average, they also have their common advantages:

1. Fully assembled structure, freely combined, easy and sensitive installation and disassembly.

2. The column is an assembled structure, and the crossbeam is connected to the column using steel buckle clips, and is locked with a safety key to prevent detachment.

3. Optimization of shelf material cross-section and selection of various pipe materials to further enhance the load-bearing capacity.

4. The column is equipped with adjustable hole spacing of every 75mm, which can be adjusted freely according to the height of the goods.

5. The connection between the columns in the back direction can be strengthened by using braces, and the bottom of the columns can be nailed together with the ground to enhance safety and reliability.

6. Generally, manual operations or stacking machines are used to store large quantities of stored materials.
