How to avoid overloading and damage of smart racks? As a manufacturer of smart racks with guardrails, let me show you how.
Accurately calculate the load-bearing requirements
Cargo weight measurement: clarify the maximum single weight of the stored goods, the number of stacking layers and the total number, and calculate the total load-bearing requirements. For example, if 10 50kg goods are stored on each layer and 4 layers are stacked, a single set of smart racks must withstand 2000kg (excluding the weight of the shelf).
Dynamic load factor: Considering the impact force during the operation of handling equipment (such as forklifts), it is recommended to multiply the static load-bearing capacity by a safety factor of 1.2-1.5. For example, a smart rack marked with a load-bearing capacity of 2000kg should be controlled within 1333-1667kg when actually used.
Adaptive scene selection
Material selection:
Q235 cold-rolled steel: suitable for light warehousing (single-layer load-bearing ≤500kg), low cost but weak impact resistance.
Q345B high-strength steel: used for heavy-duty storage (single-layer load-bearing 500-2000kg), with bending strength increased by more than 30%.
Structural type:
Column thickness: Columns ≥2.0mm can support higher loads and are suitable for high-frequency storage and retrieval scenarios.
Beam span: The smart frame structure with a span of ≤1.5m is more stable and reduces the risk of lateral deformation.
