This case study explores a high-capacity industrial storage solution designed for large steel plates, enhancing both safety and operational efficiency.
Analyse van de behoeften van de klant
A leading metal fabrication facility required an optimized storage system for 3000×1500mm steel plates. The key specifications included:
- Precision Height Control: A specific storage clearance of 90mm was required for each layer to accommodate materials perfectly.
- High-Capacity Manual System: The design needed a 10-layer configuration with each manual drawer supporting 1500-2000kg.
- Verbeterde toegankelijkheid: For heavier stock, the client requested forklift-compatible upper drawers to streamline handling.
- Durable Finish: An electrostatic powder coating was necessary to provide long-term corrosion resistance in an industrial environment.
Engineered Solution for a High-Capacity Roll Out Rack Metal Sheet Het systeem
1. Optimized Structural Design
The solution features a modular, disassemblable frame reinforced with triangular joints for maximum stability. The unit’s dual-strength configuration includes ten lower manual pull-out drawers with 90mm clearance and six upper forklift-accessible drawers with 160mm clearance, achieving a total system capacity of 5,360kg.
2. Precision Drawer Technology
Each drawer is equipped with a dual-bearing T-track roller system to prevent misalignment and ensure smooth operation. Industrial-grade components like pressure-bearing hinges, a screw-assisted braking system, and safety limit screws prevent over-extension and enhance user safety.
3. Forklift Integration and Safety Features
The upper drawers, designed with a 2.5-ton capacity, feature 800mm fork channel spacing for easy access. Ergonomic elements such as rounded corner guards and chamfered support ends are incorporated to minimize workplace hazards.

Operationele voordelen
Ruimte-efficiëntie
This system stores 16 discrete plate stacks within just 2 meters of vertical space, delivering over 30% better space utilization compared to conventional floor stacking.
Veiligheidsinnovaties
Features like anti-derailment drawer tracks and an integrated braking system prevent accidental movement, while visual alignment guides assist forklift operators for safer handling.
Logistieke optimalisatie
The disassemblable design is container-friendly for efficient shipping. We offer two packaging options: cost-effective stretch film with strapping or protective wooden crates (approximately $15/sqm additional).
Ideaal voor industriele toepassingen
This heavy-duty storage solution is perfectly suited for:
- Steel service centers processing 3-meter plates
- Fabrikanten van luchtvaartonderdelen
