I. Product Definition and Core Features
An overhead shelf is a storage equipment specifically designed for long materials, ring-shaped materials, sheets, pipes, and irregularly shaped goods. Its core function is to achieve dynamic storage of goods through the extended overhanging structure, supporting "first-in, first-out" or on-demand retrieval modes, especially suitable for the storage management of heavy and irregularly shaped materials.
II. Structural Composition and Material
Main Frame
Pile: Made of H-beam or cold-rolled steel (such as C-section welding), adjustable cantilever height via prefabricated double-row holes (hole spacing 70/100mm), with a single pile capable of bearing 2000-3000kg of pressure.
Cantilever Beam: Constructed with square tubes, H-beams, or cold-rolled steel sections, the single arm can support up to 1000 kg (heavy-duty models up to 3000-5000 kg). End-mounted anti-slip plates prevent cargo from sliding off.
Base: Made of cold-rolled steel or H-beam, equipped with a base plate that is securely fastened to the ground using expansion bolts to ensure stability.
Connectors: The cantilever and column are connected by plug-in or bolted joints. Rectangular tube connecting rods and flat iron back pulls are used between the column sections to enhance overall rigidity.
Optional Accessories
Shelving/Steel Grating: Increases space utilization upon installation, ideal for storing scattered goods in small storage rooms.
Braking Device: Braking pads are installed at the end of the cantilever to slow down the descent of the cargo, preventing impact.
IV. Core Advantages
Efficient Storage and Retrieval
Dynamic Adjustment: The cantilever height can be adjusted in 100mm increments to accommodate various sizes of cargo.
Flexible Access: Suitable for forklift, crane, or manual operation; the telescopic arm pairs with cranes requiring only 1-meter alley space, saving space.
Category Management: Each storage location can be labeled with type and quantity, achieving visual management and enhancing retrieval efficiency.
Structural stability and safety
High Load Design: Heavy-duty models feature box-section columns (thickness 10-20mm) with internal reinforced rib plates for enhanced stability.
Anti-slip and collision-proof: Welded guard plate at the end of the cantilever, fitted with brake pads at the storage locations to reduce the risk of goods slipping.
Modular installation: Pre-drilled components, bolted connections, easy to install and maintain.
Space Utilization and Adaptability
Vertical space utilization: Shelves reach up to 6 meters high, complemented by telescopic arms to enhance the usage of upper spaces.
Specialty goods compatibility: Accommodates storage of circular and irregularly shaped materials (such as tires, drive shafts), solving traditional racking storage challenges.
Environmental Adaptability: Available in low-temperature resistance and anti-corrosion materials, suitable for special scenarios like cold storage and chemical industries.
V. Application Scenarios
Manufacturing
Machine Processing: Stores long rods, profiles, and plates, supporting real-time material supply for production lines.
Automotive Parts: Store tires, engine components, and drive shafts efficiently, saving space and facilitating assembly.
Building materials and logistics
Construction Materials Warehouse: Manage rebar, wood, PVC pipes, reduce on-site chaos, and enhance construction efficiency.
Logistics Center: Stores furniture, electronics, and other large goods; optimizes warehouse layout; accelerates sorting speed.
Specialized Industry
Energy & Mining: Store long-distance pipelines and cables to ensure an orderly supply of materials.
Agricultural sector: Store irrigation pipes and farming tools, enhance equipment management efficiency.
Section 6: Selection and Customization Recommendations
Select based on product characteristics
Weight and Dimensions: For heavy materials (such as steel pipes), select a weight-bearing shelving unit. The cantilever length is customized according to the item's length.
Shape and Packaging: For circular materials (such as cables), consider the arm spacing to avoid entanglement.
Site and Operation Requirements
Space Height: Standard shelving height does not exceed 2.5 meters, with forklift operation extending up to 6 meters.
Operation Frequency: For high-frequency access scenarios, recommend choosing telescopic models to enhance efficiency with the assistance of cranes.
Customized services
Adjustable Dimensions: Customized shelf height, layers, and cantilever length based on site and product specifications.
Material Upgrade: Optional corrosion-resistant coating and static-dissipative treatment to meet special industry requirements.
- Smart Integration: Equipped with electronic tags and RFID systems, achieving information management of goods.
