Features of The Cantilever Shelves

The cantilever racks are named after the term "cantilever beam", used in construction also called "cantilever beam", in which only one end of the beam remains attached to another structural member, while the other end of the Beam is free, that is, cantilevered, in order to give greater support to the merchandise that is stored in it. They are shelving systems formed by structural columns that have been designed to store large, heavy and bulky merchandise. In conventional metal racks, the longitudinal members extend between two racks of the same module, this limits the maximum length of the load that can be stored and that will be at most the distance between racks, that is, the width of a module.

At present the warehouses have to be updated day by day; Just think how many times you have seen the errors that arise from using the inadequate metal shelf, that ultimately their supports limit the passage and cause accidents; which may vary, from affecting the personnel and / or merchandise. When a package is stored properly, we ensure that it is not damaged and that at the end of the day it translates into losses for the company, so it is very important to have the necessary logistical means for the distribution, storage of raw materials, or the simple fact of having the final inventory well protected.

These beams for storage are excellent for all types of cargo, although the benefit they provide is applied in the storage of large loads, whether long or weight or the combination of long and heavy weight, this thanks to their beams are disassembled easily and can be accommodated according to the storage need that is required. For example, a large cement pipe with an approximate weight of 650 kg with a length of 20 meters can be perfectly accommodated, since the distribution of weight falls on a shelf, the closer together they are the more their strength will be. On the other hand, the merchandise of great weight, but not of great length, allows to assemble easily for its simple distribution inside the warehouse,The cantilever racks can be used in countless businesses, from small packages, to storage, there is really no limit to where it will require, they are perfect for consolidated warehouses or distribution warehouses where the merchandise will require practical and easy inventory, because thanks to the fact that there are no supports in each corner, everything is visible between shelves, since this in its back is equal to the front and with much greater resistance than the conventional. In addition, the point of view is much cleaner and allows us to look between shelves, at the same time it is allowed to place what is necessary, which allows to triple the efficiency of it, since the front is very likely not equal to the back, and this can generate even more levels.

Even when moving the goods, the task is much simpler, because it is easier for the forklifts to carry out more the task of collection, since the cantilever beams allow providing the angle to achieve a better grip surface and handling of the forklift. Also in the use of cranes the work is much easier, since as they are removable, a section can be separated where the goods with great volume and weight can be extracted in a more comfortable and safe way. In addition, you can add an area where there may be height separation of every two meters and these have free and easy access with pallets for the extraction by means of forklifts and in other areas of two levels with more height but with goods much longer than help us to move it easily and easily by means of a crane. The cantilever shelves allow to locate a trailer platform for its rapid extraction of merchandise in the warehouse.

Now, in the matter of maintenance or breaks, this type of beams are the easiest thing to change, since with a traditional rack the supports are broken or the blade is folded, so you have to change most of that rack, but with the cantilever simply remove the Lock Joint nuts that we handle and re-attach to the profile, thus avoiding hours of repair. For heavy loads and large volume are excellent allies, all under the scheme of calculating the weight that should be distributed is the way to take advantage of the strength of the arms and thus be able to handle it more simply and harmoniously. Now that for big weights, we will always need a double support to give it that strength that is required and to be able to solve our storage needs.

In the subject of the construction, these beams can help us enough to have the big pipes and in general maintain an adequate organization that allows the correct assembly and easy placement of the materials; the purpose is that we always have an adequate order for the specific tasks that the industry requires. In the same warehouse you can have more than one type of shelves, in order to double and even triple the area available for storage, allowing the company a greater efficiency in operations, as well as the use of industrial machinery to lift and transport the cargo in large quantities and thus protect the integrity of the transported goods, along with the efficiency of operators and storekeepers.
