Consider What Kind of Shelf You Should Choose From The Height Limit of The Warehouse Shelf

Warehouse Racks are divided into light warehouse racks, medium warehouse racks, and heavy warehouse racks according to their load-bearing capacity. What are the height limits for the three types of shelves? How should we choose when planning the warehouse?

Medium-Sized Warehouse Rack

The load capacity of each layer of the light warehouse rack unit shelf is not more than 200kg, and the total load is generally not more than 2000kg. The unit shelf span is usually no more than 2m, the depth is no more than 1m, and the height is generally less than 3m. The common one is the angle steel column shelf structure, which is light and beautiful in appearance. Mainly suitable for storing light and small items.

The shelf span of the Medium-Sized Warehouse Rack unit is usually no more than 2.6m, the depth is no more than 1m, and the height is generally less than 3m. If the unit shelf span is within 2m and the layer load is within 500kg, it is usually more suitable to choose the beamless medium-sized shelf type. If the unit shelf span is more than 2m, generally only beam-type medium-sized shelf-type shelves can be selected.

The load of each layer of the heavy-duty warehouse rack unit shelf is usually above 500kg, the unit shelf span is generally within 3m, the depth is within 1.2m, and the height is not limited. In the planning and design of higher warehouses, for the convenience of access, heavy-duty pallet racks are mainly used, and forklifts are used for access operations, which can effectively reduce the labor intensity of employees and improve work efficiency. It is mainly used in some situations that require whole pallet access. It has a wide range of applications and is common in factories and logistics centers.
