Pallets are platforms that are used for transporting or storing things. They are used especially in industries like factories, warehouses, retail, food storage, grains, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, etc.
Pallet racks are the stands where pallets can be stored. Each rack can effectively hold hundreds of pallets, depending on the size. Pallet racks are excellent for managing space within a warehouse or a store.
There are different kinds of pallet racks: pushback pallet racks, selective pallet racks, pallet flow racks, reel racks, double-deep selective, carpet racks, seismic racks, bolt connection racks, boat racks, empty pallet storage racks, mezzanine racks, custom/combination racks, die storage racks, structural racks, drive-in pallet racks, and drive-through pallet racks.
Every industrial application or area has different pallet rack needs. Hence, these can be custom designed as per user specifications. Pallet racks can be designed using CAD system design. Some of the things useful for designing a pallet rack system are a study of the user requirements, the floor plan, and the kind of pallets that need to be accommodated. The main steps in designing a pallet rack are to determine the length and depth of the pallet; determine the load depth, load width, and load height of the largest load; determine the front-to-back depth of the uprights as well as the beam width; check the beam and frame capacities and the beam spacing between the beams as well as from the floor to the first beam. Other things to be considered while buying a pallet rack are the frame depth, frame height, beam length, anchoring, back-to-back clearance, etc. The different accessories available along with a pallet rack are wire rack decking, post cushion guards, post protectors, row spacers, front-to-back supports, steel guard rails and others.
There are many manufacturers who provide custom-made pallets racks. You can order them online through the manufacturers’ websites.
