A pallet is the main unit load in most warehouses. A correct pallet storage...

pallet racking

pallet racking The frame is the vertical structure made up of two or more perforated uprights, braced with a lattice of horizontal and diagonal bars. These are the load elements of all pallet racking systems. The upright bracing lattices are made of bolted elements to increase the rigidity and stability of the system. POLYPAL uses its specific calculation methods to optimise the design of frames, resulting in lattice systems built with tested elements and adapted to the structure required byt he project specifications.

pallet racking Depending on the specificied pallet racking system, different elements are used to directly support the loads. The main components are: □ Beams: horizontal elements lodged to the frames, on which the pallets are placed; they are also used for the duties on bracing in compact storage, depending on the storage equipment. Rails: horizontal load supports, profiled of various □ continuous sections that transfer the pallet load to the frames, in Drive-in/Drive-Through or Shuttle compact systems. In compact storage systems, the pallets are placed on continuous profiles. These profiles,...

pallet racking uprights The upright is the vertical element of the frame structure onto which the beams are attached, supporting the loads MAIN PERFORATION Double cylinder lock-shaped perforations along the upright, used to attach the beams in their load position. The lower cylinder is slightly angled towards the axis of the upright front to increase the rigidity of the beam conexlon end avoid it from being dislodged out of its position accidentally. Different thickness, steel grade qualities and types of profiled structures can be combined, according to the specific load and structural rigidity...

Standard graphite finish. Optional: any RAL colour. Standard version finish. Optional: sendzimir plated or hot dipgalvanisad. High-resistance hot rolled structural steel.

pallet racking beams The beam is the horizontal element that supports the load units on each level, loged to the frames with connectors on the ends. They are installed in pairs and at equal heights. SAFETY PIN Prevents the beam from being accidentally pushed out of its position. Press embedded steel cylinder. More resistant than tab clips or hooks. so it can be fitted to the uprights. With 2 or 3 bolts, according to the load requirements and based on stability criteria.

pallet racking WELD MIG weld to join ning the connector to the beam at a 90° angle. Standard version finish. Optional: zinc plated or hot dip galvanised. High-resistance hot rolled structural steel. 1.5,1.8 and 2 mm thickness. Standard epoxy-polyester finish, ochre colour for a greater visibility. Optional: any RAL colour.

pallet racking *•— STEPPED SECTION Function as for pallet beam, their design is specific for I Vt L-shape profiled strap picking duties, profiled whith an L-shape so as to allow for the addition of chipboard or steel decking. VE2 L-shaped structure for the panel or mesh. Recessed support of the shelf increases the usable height of the load level, while protecting the chipboard against impacts. In some cases, orders must be prepared manually on the same aisles as those in which pallets are stored. Therefore, the lower levels of the pallet racking structure are used for the picking tasks. STEEL...

pallet racking Adjustableracking This system has been specially designed to store pallets or containers. This is the most common storage system, thanks to its ease of assembly, competitive cost and versatility. It allows direct and unitary access to each individual stored pallet. In general, a random or empty space system is used, i.e., "a space for any pallet". The system is made up of two base elements: frames and beams, used for the racking structure, which can be fully disassembled and reassembled very easily, creating a very robust and stable system that allows for modifications of the load...

Conventional pallet racking systemsallow direct access to any stored pallets. The ongoing development and refinement of POLYPAL's upright and beams, together with the vast combination options, allow our technical department to design a fully operational and safe storage option for each project at the lowest possible investment cost. We are In permanent contact with the customer, so we can project the structures following the load volume, weight, accessibility, handling and space usage needs, based on the calculations established in the corresponding European Standards and regulations.
