Cantilever shelves are storage shelves designed specifically for long, irregular, or heavy materials. The core consists of columns and horizontally extending "cantilever arms", which are unobstructed by shelves and can directly place materials of equal length such as pipes, profiles, and plates. They feature "open storage" and "convenient retrieval" and are the core solution to the problem of storing long materials.
Its core advantages are concentrated in three points: firstly, it has strong adaptability, with a customizable cantilever arm length (usually 1-3 meters) that can store materials up to 2-12 meters long, as well as irregular goods such as rolls and sheets, avoiding the size limitations of traditional shelves on long materials; Secondly, it is convenient to access without dismantling materials. Forklifts and cranes can directly load and unload from both sides of the cantilever, especially suitable for long materials that frequently circulate (such as steel and aluminum). The operating efficiency is more than 50% higher than that of ordinary shelves; Thirdly, the structure is flexible, supporting single cantilever (wall mounted, space saving) or double cantilever (independent installation in the middle, double-sided access) layouts. The cantilever height can be adjusted, and it can also be used with layer boards to store small auxiliary materials, meeting various storage needs.
It should be noted that its load-bearing capacity should be selected based on the weight of the material (light<500kg/arm, medium 500-1500kg/arm, heavy>1500kg/arm), and the shelf height is usually not more than 8 meters to avoid unstable center of gravity. Widely used in the building materials market, mechanical processing factories, furniture factories, and other scenarios, especially suitable for storing materials such as pipes, profiles, wooden boards, steel pipes, etc.
