The unit of measurement for shelves is not fixed, but rather flexibly chosen based on the specific scenario and needs. The following are some common forms and their applicable situations:
1. Individual Units
- “Individual” or “Piece”: Suitable for small, lightweight shelves, usually for single products placed independently.
- “Piece”: Similar to “individual”, often used to describe simple shelf items.
2. Combined Units
- “Set” or “Group”: Often used for large, heavy, or combined shelving systems. For example, a complete storage shelving system may include main frames, sub-frames, and multi-layer structures. In this case, using “set” or “group” as the overall measurement is more convenient for management and procurement.
3. Physical Dimension Units
- Length/Width/Height: Using meters (m), centimeters (cm), feet (ft), etc., to accurately indicate the spatial dimensions of the shelf. For example, a shelf is marked as “Length 2000mm × Width 600mm × Height 2000mm”.
- Load-bearing capacity: Using tons (t), kilograms (kg), pounds (lb) to measure the load limit, such as 300kg per layer.
- Capacity Volume: Using cubic meters (m³), liters (L), cubic feet (ft³) to represent the size of the storage space, especially suitable for evaluating warehouse utilization.
4. Industry-Specific Usage
- In the warehousing industry, the shelf efficiency may also be indirectly evaluated by indicators such as floor area and storage efficiency, but the direct measurement is still mainly based on the above units.
In practical applications, the choice of unit needs to be comprehensively judged based on the shelf type, design complexity, and customer needs. For example, customized large-scale high-bay warehouses are more inclined to use “sets” or “groups”, while retail display shelves mostly use “individual” or “piece”.
The mixed use of different units can also provide more comprehensive product parameter information.
