Although we all already know how to use drive-in racks to help enterprises improve economic efficiency, it is not enough to pay attention to this. What we need to pay attention to is how to better use drive-in racks to maximize economic benefits.

The better use of drive-through racks should be noted that when designing a new warehouse or transforming an existing warehouse, it is necessary to review and study the system characteristics applied in the warehouse. For example, drive-in racks can be used in the warehouse. To achieve the maximum storage capacity in the smallest space, then you can choose this economical logistics solution.

When using through racks, loading and unloading should be carried out from one side, which can effectively improve time efficiency.

The pass-through rack is a continuous whole rack that is not divided by aisles. On the support rails (corbel beams), the pallets are stored in the depth direction, one after the other, which makes high-density storage possible. Drive-in racks are suitable for the storage of goods with a small variety and a large quantity. They are often used to store a large number of goods of the same type and have high space utilization. They are suitable for occasions with high storage space costs such as the food industry, chemical industry, clothing industry, and cold storage. , the storage cost per unit site is relatively low.

Through-type shelves can be divided into one-way and two-way arrangements according to the picking direction. The total depth of the one-way (wall area) shelf is best controlled within 6 pallet depths, and the total depth of the two-way (the middle area can be picked up on both sides) is the highest. It is best to control the depth of the pallet within 12 pallets to improve the efficiency and reliability of forklift access (in this type of racking system, the forklift is in a continuous "lifting and hitting" operation mode, and the forklift is easy to shake and hit the rack, so the stability is considered. sufficiency is crucial). The stability of this type of storage system is weak, and the shelf should not be too high. Usually, it should be controlled within 10 meters. In order to strengthen the stability of the entire shelf system, in addition to larger specifications and selection, a pulling device must be added. The single pallet cargo should not be too large or heavy, usually the weight should be controlled within 1500KG, and the pallet span should not be greater than 1.5 meters. Commonly equipped forklifts are reach battery forklifts or counterbalanced battery forklifts.

Due to the dense storage of goods and the extremely high stability requirements, the through-type racks require relatively many rack accessories. Through the connection between the accessories and the rack column, the goods can be safely and densely stored on the corbel beams, to the greatest extent possible. make use of space. The accessories of the drive-in rack include: corbel (the main connection between the corbel beam and the shelf column, divided into single and double sides), the corbel beam (the main supporting shelf for goods storage), the top beam (the connection of the shelf column) Stabilizer), top pull (the connection stabilizer of the shelf column), back pull (the connection stabilizer of the shelf column, used for one-way arrangement of the shelf), foot protector (the front shelf protector), guard rail (forklift enters the roadway) time shelf protectors), etc.
