For supermarkets, shopping malls, warehouses and other places, shelves are very important storage equipment, which can play a very good role in organizing and storing. In the shelf application, if you want to reduce damage and extend the shelf life, correct use and maintenance are very necessary. So, what do you know about the correct use of the shelf and the details that need to be paid attention to when using it? Here is a detailed understanding for everyone:
1. Avoid collisions with transported equipment
When handling goods, you need to handle them with care to avoid collisions between the goods and the components of the shelves, especially heavy shelves. When using forklifts and other handling tools, you should go straight in and out, and then turn after leaving the range of the shelf. If you accidentally collide with the pillars and other parts of the heavy-duty rack, you should report it to the maintenance department in time and make a mark of “Rack components are damaged, waiting to be repaired”. The maintenance department decides to repair on its own or notify the shelf manufacturer to replace after-sales: such as heavy-duty The parts of the shelf are only surface coating damaged and the metal material is not deformed. The maintenance department can use the shelf special coating reserved by the shelf manufacturer to repair and self-paint for repair; if the parts of the heavy shelf are deformed, the shelf should be notified in time The manufacturer replaces it to avoid collapse accidents.
2. The stored goods shall not exceed the maximum load-bearing capacity on the shelf carrying identification plate
When designing heavy duty shelves, the designer will confirm the weight of the product with the user, and then use the load value obtained by multiplying the maximum load of the pallet cargo by the safety factor of 1.4 as the design standard. When designing and manufacturing these shelves, they must not exceed it. The specified load on the shelf, so as to avoid safety accidents.
3. Maintain uniform force
When storing goods, the shelves should be used in accordance with the principle of “upper lighter and lower heavy”. Simply put, put light objects on the upper floors and heavy objects on the bottom layer to avoid safety accidents due to uneven shelf capacity.
4. Pay attention to waterproof and moisture-proof
Although the surface of the shelf has been processed and treated by electrostatic spraying, it is also necessary to pay attention to moisture prevention. Once the shelf is found to be damp, wipe it with a rag in time. Because metal shelves are prone to rust when they are damp, while wooden shelves are easy to rot when they are damp.
The above content is the correct use details and shelf maintenance knowledge shared by the shelf manufacturers, and the correct use of the shelf can reduce damage and extend the shelf life, thereby saving expenses and reducing costs.
