It is well known that manufacturing processes are designed to transform various raw materials through various processes into finished products that meet the required quality and safety requirements.
In order for manufacturing to be competitive, it is important that materials are costed and that the end product is manufactured and stored as profitably as possible.
The manufacturing process is an important part of the manufacturing enterprise, but what exactly is the manufacturing process for the major industrial racking components? How are the beams and columns that make up the structure of a storage system primarily manufactured?
Industrial racking raw materials
Within the case of industrial racking,knowledge of the raw material (in this case steel) is key, as it provides the basis for using the appropriate quality of raw material for each product.
Profiling process
At this stage, by strictly controlling the dimensions of the profiles, the machines that produce rolled steel with advanced, robust and versatile technology will help to ensure that the product is always within the established quality parameters.
In a high quality and demanding profiling
process, a complete list of dimensions must be defined for each manufactured item (in
this case beams and columns) and constantly checked during each production order.
Each critical measurement must be controlled to ensure the correct behavior of the product under installation assembly and load application.
In this part of the process, some industrial shelving manufacturers implement a
traceability process in their components, using serial numbers to identify each component, making it unique and easy to identify.
