Cantilever racks can be single-sided or double-sided. They are characterized by structural stability, high load-bearing capacity, and excellent space utilization. They are suitable for storing long materials, ring-shaped materials, sheets, pipes, and irregularly shaped goods. Cantilever racks are commonly used in the machinery manufacturing industry and building materials superstores. When equipped with shelves, they are particularly suitable for warehouses with limited space and low ceilings. They offer convenient management, a wide field of view, and higher space utilization than standard shelving. Cantilever racks are constructed by mounting external cantilevers onto the uprights of traditional shelving, making them a specialized solution for long items.
Through-type racking, also known as drive-in racking or through-aisle racking, employs a pallet-based storage and retrieval system and is ideally suited for storing goods with a limited product variety but large batch sizes. With the exception of the bays closest to the aisle—where forklifts must enter the rack to retrieve and store items—the recommended maximum depth for single-sided access is typically no more than seven pallet positions. To enhance forklift throughput, guide rails can be installed as needed. Compared with selective racking, through-type (drive-in) racking can increase warehouse space utilization by more than 30%, making it widely used in cold-storage facilities as well as in the food and tobacco industries.
Push-back racking also evolved from pallet racking and is alternatively referred to as push-back or push-in racking. It operates on the principle of combining rails with pallet carts; the rails are set at a slight incline (approximately 3°). Leveraging the weight of the goods, pallets are loaded at one end and stored in a single-depth configuration, with first-in, first-out retrieval. This system is well suited for storing large quantities of a limited product variety, offering high space utilization and flexible, convenient access. The overall depth of the rack should not be excessive—typically no more than six pallet depths—since excessive depth can lead to significant space loss due to the interlocking of pallet carts. The weight of each pallet load generally does not exceed 1,500 kg, and the rack height is usually kept below 6 meters.
Flow rack systems feature flow rails installed at a specific angle across the rack, allowing goods stored in material bins to slide downward under gravity, thereby enabling one-way flow and conveyance. The rack consists of upright posts, front and rear stop beams, support beams, limit plates, flow rails (either aluminum alloy or sheet-metal type), flow-rail fasteners, deceleration plates, and other components. Both the rack height and the slope are adjustable. Due to their first-in-first-out operation, these systems are primarily suited for distribution centers (DCs) with picking requirements and for intra-workstation material transfer within factory workshops.
Mezzanine racking refers to a shelving system that uses the racks themselves as structural supports, with walkways, guardrails, pedestrian staircases, gravity-fed conveyors, freight elevators, hydraulic lift platforms, and other components installed at specific heights on the racks to create two- or multi-level storage units. This design maximizes warehouse space utilization, enhances operational efficiency, and improves overall productivity. Additionally, an entire floor slab can be added atop the rack structure to form a steel platform, creating a tiered configuration in which small and large items are stored separately on the lower rack level and the upper platform level; further shelving can also be flexibly integrated onto the platform.
A steel-structure platform is a type of racking system that uses square steel, round steel, and H-shaped steel as vertical columns, with H-shaped steel or specially designed C-shaped beams and clamp beams serving as the floor-bearing layer. The components are connected in accordance with the requirements of steel structure design codes, and the floor surface is constructed using custom-made steel mezzanine panels. High-strength bolts and specialized fasteners are employed to join all structural elements and the floor panels. Depending on customer needs, either perforated floor panels or steel grating floor panels can be selected to enhance natural lighting or accommodate fire sprinkler systems. This racking system features high load-bearing capacity, flexible design, ease of use, and quick installation, making it widely suitable for workshop and warehouse spaces. It effectively increases storage capacity and is ideal for storing items that can be stacked. The top level of the platform can accommodate pallet trucks and other material-handling equipment, with a typical design load rating of no more than 1,000 kg per square meter. It can be integrated with hydraulic lift platforms, freight elevators, or forklifts for efficient goods handling. For taller warehouses, two- or multi-level steel-structure platforms can be designed.
Drawer-type shelving, also known as mold racks, is primarily used for storing various molds and related items. The top can be equipped with a mobile hoist—either manual or electric—and the bottom of each drawer features roller tracks, allowing the loaded unit to be smoothly and effortlessly pulled with minimal effort. An additional positioning safety device ensures secure and reliable operation. Based on load capacity, these racks are available in light-duty and heavy-duty versions. Operation is effortless: the design incorporates bearing assemblies for smooth sliding and translation, along with an independent mold-hanging mechanism, eliminating the need for large overhead cranes or forklifts.
Electric mobile racking systems are ideally suited for warehouses with a wide variety of SKUs but low inbound and outbound turnover, as well as for warehouses where inventory turnover is high but goods can be picked and put away in strict aisle sequence. Typically requiring only a single operational aisle, these systems significantly enhance warehouse space utilization, making them widely adopted across industries such as media, finance, food, archives, document centers, libraries, pharmaceutical storage, banking, and cold storage. To design an optimal logistics equipment solution, it is essential to thoroughly assess multiple factors, including warehouse layout, the nature of the stored goods, and the specific picking and putaway methods employed.
Beam-type (warehouse) racking is a widely used racking system that offers advantages such as structural stability, high load capacity, and convenient order picking. The system consists of load-bearing upright frames and beams. The beams are hung onto the upright frames and are equipped with safety pins, allowing for adjustment in 50- or 75-mm increments. The upright frames are anchored to the floor using expansion bolts. The bottom level of the racking rests directly on the floor, typically accommodating 2–3 pallets per level. The beam length and frame depth are determined by the dimensions of the pallets. This racking system can be flexibly configured with various safety and convenience accessories as needed, such as pallet stops, rear pallet guards, wire mesh shelves, impact-resistant foot protectors, and connecting beams.
Light-duty shelving is a common type of warehouse racking, primarily designed for the storage and display of lightweight items, such as retail merchandise, office supplies, and archival documents. These shelves typically feature adjustable shelves that can be freely repositioned to suit different height requirements. With advantages such as simple installation, high flexibility, and low cost, light-duty shelving is widely used in commercial and warehousing settings.
Medium-duty shelving is a type of storage and display rack that, compared with light-duty shelving, is better suited for handling heavier loads, such as electronic products, furniture, and automotive parts. It typically features a more robust structural design and greater load-bearing capacity, meeting the demands of medium-load applications. Medium-duty shelving also includes adjustable shelves, allowing users to customize the height and spacing according to their specific needs. This shelving system is widely used in retail stores, warehouses, and factories, providing convenience and efficiency for both storage and product presentation.
Heavy-duty steel pallet racking
Heavy-duty pallet racking is a type of shelving specifically designed for the storage and display of heavy items. Compared with light- and medium-duty racks, heavy-duty racks typically feature thicker metal components and a more robust support structure to handle greater loads and provide enhanced stability. These racks are commonly used to store large mechanical parts, construction materials, automotive components, and other heavy goods. Heavy-duty pallet racking generally offers higher load-bearing capacity and greater durability, making it well-suited for environments with stringent requirements for stability and safety, such as factories, warehouses, and logistics centers. It often includes adjustable shelves to accommodate items of varying sizes and shapes.
