If you use a simple sentence to summarize the difference between the two types of warehouse shelves, that is, medium-sized storage shelves are suitable for medium-sized warehouses, storing goods that are not too heavy, and heavy-duty warehouse shelves are suitable for large-scale warehouses, storing heavy goods. Specifically, it can be roughly distinguished from the following aspects: shelf structure, shelf size, shelf transportation and disassembly, and shelf load-bearing.

1, the structure of the shelf is different

Medium-sized storage shelves are assembled from columns, beams and laminates. The independent group has two columns, called the main frame. Medium storage shelves without bolts, easy installation, reliable structure. Steel banding, column, beam, the entire shelf without bolt connection, easy installation and disassembly. The main auxiliary connection form, strong stability.

The main components of heavy warehouse shelves are columns, beams and some accessories for storing pallet goods. The size of the cargo space on the shelf is designed according to the storage target and the size of the pallet, and some anti-collision pillars, anti-collision guardrails and other accessories will be added to avoid collisions between the forklift and the shelf.

2. Different shelf sizes

Common specifications and sizes of medium-sized storage shelves: 2000*600*2000 and 1500*600*2000, easy to install, and the storage method is mainly manual storage.

Heavy shelves do not have specific specifications and sizes, they are all customized. Usually by forklift access to goods, the height of the shelf mainly considers the available net height of the warehouse and the lifting height of the forklift, most of which are above 3 meters, and the highest can reach more than 10 meters.

3. Transportation, installation and disassembly of shelves

Medium-sized storage shelves are also called shelf-type shelves. They have simple structure, columns and laminates, small size, light weight, convenient transportation and installation, no screws for shelf combination, direct fastening and overlapping, and convenient disassembly.

Heavy-duty warehouse shelves have large carrying capacity and high height. In order to ensure the stability and safety of the shelf, it is necessary to punch holes during installation, and the shelf needs to be fixed on the ground with expansion bolts, so the expansion bolts need to be pulled up during disassembly.

4. The load bearing of the shelf is different

The load-bearing capacity of medium-sized storage shelves is generally 200kg-300kg. Heavy warehouse shelves generally bear more than one ton, more than one ton is also very common.
