The difference between warehouse heavy duty pallet rack and very narrow aisle rack

When used to store pallet goods, most of the warehouse racks used are heavy duty pallet racks or very narrow aisle racks. In essence, these two kinds of warehouse racks are crossbeam pallet racks and also belong to storage space racks. However, these two kinds of warehouse racks also have differences, such as the following:


The structure of warehouse racks is different

In the process of forming the heavy duty pallet rack, the beams and column pieces are used. In the process of building, the structure is particularly simple, and the operation is also very simple. The height between each layer is based on 75mm and is increasing exponentially. However, the very narrow aisle rack, in this part, is a crossbeam pallet rack. In addition, there will be an action track at the bottom of the warehouse rack that can allow the forklift to walk.


The aisle of the warehouse rack is different

During the construction of heavy duty pallet racks, the channels left are relatively wide. The purpose is to leave a certain area for the forklift to facilitate the turning of the forklift during the transportation of goods. However, this width is determined by the radius reached by the forklift during turning.

The very narrow aisle racks are relatively narrow when they are set up. Generally, the channel set up is only 1.6 meters, and the channel slightly larger is only 2 meters. Compared with the channel width of heavy duty pallet racks, it is indeed much smaller.


The machinery used for handling is different

Forklift is an indispensable equipment for the transportation of goods placed on heavy duty pallet racks. And there are no special requirements for the use of forklifts. As long as the forklift can drive in and make sure to turn in this passage. However, when equipped with forklifts, the requirements for very narrow aisle racks are relatively high, because only special three-way stacking forklifts can drive into this aisle.


The density of stored goods is different

The passage for forklifts is relatively large when heavy duty pallet racks are built, so the storage density is not high. This means that the utilization rate of space is relatively low, even accounting for only 40%.

However, the density of goods stored in very narrow aisle racks is relatively high, because the aisle is relatively narrow, which also improves the utilization rate of space. The utilization rate of the entire warehouse rack can even reach 65%.
