How To Use Metal Pallets With Shelves Properly?

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. So how to use metal pallets and shelves correctly? An overview of Shangjian metal tray manufacturers is as follows:

I. Metal pallet with 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.Metal tray with shuttle rack

As an automated racking system, the pallets placed on it are stored in a deep position by a shuttle. Metal pallets are the main type of pallets, which 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. Metal tray with through rack

Through shelves are 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.

To sum up, metal pallets are suitable for a variety of different storage shelves. For different storage shelves, the specifications, types and materials of the metal pallets can be selected. We can determine them based on comprehensive considerations. If you have technical problems, please consult us.
