Things to Note When Using Stackable Plastic Pallets On Shelves
Leave a message
Rackable plastic pallet is popular in various industries because it can stack goods on the shelves. It not only saves warehouse space but also implements digital management of goods. However, there are still a few points to note when using plastic pallets to stack goods on the shelves.
Built-in steel bars
If you want to use plastic pallets on shelves, you need to first build steel pipes into the pallets. Generally, steel pipes can be built into the pallet panels or slideways. This can not only reduce the bending of the plastic pallet, improve safety, and make the solid plastic pallet less likely to deform, extending its service life. Generally, 3 runner plastic pallet and double sided plastic pallet can have built-in steel pipes.
Two types of plastic pallet for palletizing
Double sided plastic pallet and 3 runner plastic pallet are most commonly used for palletizing. Both of these pallets are heavy-duty plastic pallets. When stacking goods on pallets, it is necessary to ensure the pallet's load-bearing capacity and ensure that it is not easily deformed when bearing heavy goods to ensure the safety of the goods. Lightweight pallets cannot be used for stacking.
Consider the load capacity of the pallet
There are strict standards for the load capacity of pallets. Due to the need for multi-layer stacking, the load capacity of the bottom plastic pallet must be considered when stacking goods. The load-bearing capacity of the bottom plastic pallet ensures that it can bear the weight of the goods and the weight of the pallet above the goods and the weight of the goods on the pallet. Therefore, in order to ensure that the bottom pallet is not easily deformed and the goods are not easily collapsed when stacking multiple layers, the maximum load-bearing capacity of the bottom plastic pallet must be ensured.
Cargo stacking specifications
When stacking goods on pallets, they need to be arranged neatly according to the specifications, sizes, properties, etc. of the goods, and they need to be fixed with strapping tape when necessary. When stacking goods, it is strictly forbidden to tilt or stack goods irregularly to avoid unstable center of gravity of the goods and cause safety accidents.
Maintain appropriate spacing
When stacking pallets, it is necessary to leave appropriate gaps between the wall, the warehouse roof, and the pallets. For example, the stacking distance between pallets is 10 cm; the warehouse roof needs to leave a distance of more than 50 cm. These distances are left to facilitate the inventory, turnover and storage of goods. When stacking goods, they must not exceed the edge of the pallet. Try to choose pallets with sizes and types suitable for stacking goods.
Conclusion
In summary, only the reasonable and standardized use of plastic pallets can effectively extend the service life of the pallets and reduce the occurrence of accidents.
