1. Anti overloading

The racks designed by the storage pallet rack technician have a bearing capacity, and the weight of the stored goods should not exceed this bearing capacity, otherwise, it is prone to accidents.

2. Anti super high and super-wide

when the pallet rack is installed, its floor height and floor width are fixed, and the size of the cardboard and goods should be slightly less than 100 mm of the net space. If the goods are stored, they can be disassembled and assembled again.

3. Anti-collision

An anti-collision guardrail shall be set up in the warehouse where the forklift and other handling equipment are stored and picked up. During the operation of forklift, handle with care as much as possible to reduce the collision between the handling equipment and the pallet rack and reduce the damage rate.

4. Prevent the weight of the head and foot

Follow the rules of goods storage, and achieve the principle of light goods at a high level and heavy goods at a low level, that is, the principle of the rack from top to bottom, from light to heavy, to maintain the overall balance between the pallet rack and the storage, which is safer and more stable.

5. Replace the damaged beam and column in time

In the process of practice, we found that the damage of the crossbeam and column of the pallet rack is very common. When we find the damage, we should inform the rack manufacturer to replace it in time. We can’t have a fluke mentality.
