Guizhou racking factories offer a wide variety of warehousing tools designed to meet diverse storage needs and improve warehousing efficiency. Here are some common warehousing tools:

 

Storage Equipment

 

- Light-duty shelving: Made of steel shelves and universal angle steel profiles combined with angle codes and special pins. It features an aesthetically pleasing appearance, simple assembly, steel shelves adjustable in 50mm increments, shelves with reinforced welds, high load capacity, and wide application in company warehouses, supermarkets, and institutions.

- Medium-duty shelving: The uprights are made of cold-rolled steel sheets formed by a special cold-bending machine. The beams use "P"-shaped tubes, and the steel shelves are made of cold-rolled steel sheets bent on four sides to the required size. After all components are processed and formed, they undergo grinding, pickling, phosphating, fully automatic powder electrostatic spraying, and drying processes. The surface is smooth and beautiful, and the shelf layers can be adjusted in 50mm increments. It is easy to disassemble and assemble.

- Heavy-duty shelving: Also known as beam shelving, it uses a fully assembled structure of upright posts + beams. It features a simple and reliable structure, light weight, strong load-bearing capacity, and low cost. It can be used with handling machinery such as forklifts for storage operations. The span of a single unit is generally within 4m, the depth is within 1.5m, and the load per unit is generally within 4000kg.

- Mold shelving: A combination assembly type, mainly composed of columns, guide grooves, drawer layers, pull rods, and positioning pins. The drawer trays consist of a frame and steel plate welded from rectangular tubes and bent parts. The slide rails are fixed front and back, up and down, by two bearings and can roll freely in the guide groove. Positioning pins and limit pins are designed to ensure the safety of the drawer trays when pulled out.

- Mezzanine shelving: Usually uses medium or heavy-duty shelving as the main support, assembled with floor panels. It makes full use of the upper space in the warehouse, increasing storage area. It is suitable for warehouses with high ceilings, light goods, and manual access.

- Cantilever racking: Composed of uprights and cantilevers. Its characteristic is that it can store long and bar-shaped goods, such as steel and timber. Goods can be placed directly on the cantilever, or special shelves can be used to increase storage capacity.

- Flow rack: The shelves use special flow rails. Goods slide from the high end to the low end under the action of gravity, realizing a FIFO (first-in, first-out) storage method. It is generally used for storing small and light goods, such as parts and accessories.

- Shuttle racking: Through the shuttle car running on the shelf track, it realizes automatic storage and retrieval of goods, improving the utilization rate of warehouse space and the efficiency of goods storage and retrieval. It is suitable for storage of goods with multiple batches and small quantities.

- Automated high-bay warehouse: Using automated equipment and computer management systems to realize automatic storage and retrieval of goods. It has advantages such as large storage capacity, high efficiency, and high accuracy, but the investment cost is high.

Handling Equipment

 

- Forklift: A commonly used handling equipment in warehouses. It can perform loading, unloading, stacking, and short-distance transportation of goods. It includes different types such as manual and electric forklifts, suitable for handling goods of various weights and sizes.

- Pallet: A flat pad used to carry goods. It is usually used with forklifts or conveyors to facilitate the handling and storage of goods. Materials such as wooden pallets, plastic pallets, and steel pallets are available.

- Hand truck: A small manual handling tool used for short-distance transportation of lighter goods within the warehouse. It is simple and flexible to operate, such as a flatbed cart.

 

Packaging Equipment

 

- Carton sealer: Used for sealing and packaging cartons, improving packaging efficiency and quality, and reducing errors in manual operation.

- Wrapping machine: Wraps goods or pallets with wrapping film to provide fixation and protection, preventing goods from scattering or being damaged during transportation and storage.

 

Sorting Equipment

 

- Sorter: Can quickly and accurately sort goods into different areas or containers according to order information or attributes, improving sorting efficiency and accuracy, and reducing the labor intensity of manual sorting.

- Electronic label picking system: Electronic labels display the location and picking information of goods, guiding staff to quickly find and pick goods, improving picking efficiency and accuracy.

 

Measuring Equipment

 

- Weighbridge: Used to weigh large goods or vehicles. It is often installed at the entrance and exit of the warehouse to weigh goods entering and leaving the warehouse, ensuring the accuracy of the quantity of goods.

- Electronic scale: Used to weigh goods of smaller weight, such as parts and raw materials. It has high precision, is easy to operate, and may be used in various operational stages of the warehouse.

 

Information Equipment

 

- Warehouse Management System (WMS): Provides information management of goods in the warehouse, including functions such as goods entry and exit, inventory check, and inventory inquiry. It can monitor inventory dynamics in real time, improving the efficiency and accuracy of warehouse management.

- Barcode printer and scanner: The barcode printer is used to print barcode labels for goods, and the scanner is used to read barcode information, enabling quick identification and data collection of goods, improving the efficiency and accuracy of warehouse operations.

 

Other Auxiliary Equipment

 

- Stepladder: Facilitates staff in accessing and organizing goods at heights, such as when working on high-level shelves or mezzanine shelves.

- Warehouse cage: A foldable metal container used for storing and circulating goods. It features a simple structure, durability, stackability, effective protection of goods, and improved warehouse space utilization.

- Partition net: Used to divide different areas of the warehouse, such as storage areas, operating areas, and passages, preventing the random movement of personnel and goods, improving warehouse safety and management efficiency.

- Parts bin: Used to store small parts or tools. It is usually made of plastic or metal and comes in various specifications and sizes, allowing for convenient classification, management, and storage of parts.
