The Maintenance Cost of Heavy-Duty Shelves
Regular Inspection: It is recommended to conduct a comprehensive inspection of heavy-duty shelves or pallet racks every quarter. Check for any deformation, cracks, or other damage to the shelf columns and beams, as well as whether the shelf connecting parts are loose or missing.
Cleaning Maintenance: It is necessary to regularly remove dust and debris from the shelf layers. For stubborn stains that are difficult to clean, mild cleaning agents can be used for washing, and ensure the shelves are dry to prevent rusting.
Load Management: Strictly adhere to the design load-bearing limits of the shelves, and ensure that goods are evenly distributed across the shelf layers to prevent local overloading of the layers.
Anti-Collision Protection: Install anti-collision guards or plates at the columns and corners of the shelves to prevent damage from collisions with forklifts and other equipment.
Daily Use Standards: Operators should avoid using excessive force to prevent collisions with the shelves and must receive professional training.
Professional Repair: If any damage or abnormalities are found with the shelves, immediately stop using them and contact a professional shelving company for maintenance.
Environmental Control: Maintain a dry and ventilated warehouse environment, and control the temperature and humidity to prevent aging and deformation of the shelf materials.
Record and File Management: Establish maintenance and inspection records for the shelves, and document in detail the time, content, and results of each inspection and repair.
The specific cost will vary depending on factors such as the size of the shelves, frequency of use, environment, and depth of maintenance. For example, a shelf that requires frequent maintenance and inspection will naturally have a higher maintenance cost than a shelf that requires almost no maintenance. Additionally, if the shelves require part replacement or large-scale repairs, the cost will correspondingly increase.
