How to use the drive in pallet rack correctly

In order to better utilize the drive in pallet racking, it is important to consider and study the system characteristics applied in the warehouse when designing or renovating an existing warehouse. For example, if you want to maximize storage capacity within the minimum space of the drive in pallet racking, you need to choose a reasonable and economical logistics solution, preferably ensuring that pallets are placed on the back rack for safe load-bearing.
When using a drive in pallet rack, it is necessary to load and unload from one side. This cargo access mode can effectively improve time efficiency and work efficiency; At the same time, pay attention to the storage and retrieval of goods layer by layer from the highest to the lowest level of the rack.
Drive in pallet racking is a continuous integrated racking without channel division, which requires storing pallet goods in the depth direction on the support rails, and can achieve high-density storage.
When using a drive in pallet rack, the individual load should not be too large or too heavy, and the weight is generally controlled within 1500KG. The pallet span should not exceed 1.5m.

Drive in pallet racks can be divided into one-way and two-way arrangements based on the direction of pickup. The total depth of one-way racks is best controlled within 6 pallet depths, and the total depth of two-way racks is best controlled within 12 pallet depths, which can improve the efficiency and reliability of forklift access (in such rack systems, forklifts operate continuously in a “high lift” mode, and are prone to shaking and hitting the racks, so sufficient consideration of stability is crucial).
For drive in pallet racks, their storage system stability is weak, and the racks should not be too high, but should be controlled within 10 meters. In order to enhance the stability of the entire racking system, in addition to selecting larger specifications and models, an additional fixing device is needed.
Due to the dense storage of goods, the stability of the drive in pallet racks is extremely high. For this reason, there are many accessories on the racks. Generally speaking, by connecting the accessories to the rack columns, the goods can be safely and densely stored on the cow leg beams, thus maximizing the use of space and ensuring that the storage of goods does not exceed the load-bearing capacity of the cow leg beams. In addition, it is necessary to ensure that there is at least 5 centimeters of area on both sides of the pallet stored on the cow leg beams. The accessories of the drive in pallet racks include: the main connecting parts between the cow leg beams and the rack columns, divided into single-sided and double-sided), the cow leg beams (the main supporting layer for storing goods), the top beam (the connecting stabilizer of the rack columns), and the top pull (the connecting stabilizer of the rack columns). Back pull (connection stabilizer for rack columns, used for one-way arrangement of racks), foot protection (front protective part of racks) Guardrails (protective components for racks when forklifts enter the aisle), etc.
