RACK PROTECTION: RISK OF LIGHT IMPACT

Racks are designed exclusively to support a static load.

Any impact caused by a goods handling trolley generates a dynamic force that can easily cause costly damage to the rack and sometimes make it collapse.

Choosing the correct Impact Safety Barrier is fundamental to ensure the elimination of high maintenance costs due to impacts and the necessary safety of the operators.

Protecting the rack legs from light but continuous impacts means protecting the structure of a rack constantly stressed by the weight applied to it and by the forks of the forklifts.

Using Rack Leg Protections means redistributing the impact energy from a limited point to an extended area, to prevent minor damage or dents to the rack legs.

It is very important to correctly evaluate the surrounding passage area, checking that vehicles and their speed suit the chosen and installed Impact Safety Barrier.

In this case, if you want to keep the shelving structure intact, it is recommended to use Bollards or Guardrails, so that the Impact Energy is discharged to the ground thanks to the totally independent anchoring system.

This application helps to mitigate the effect of continuous rubbing and denting on uprights during goods handling operations.

STOMMPY uprights give the possibility to check the state of the Device and, if necessary, repair it at the appropriate time thanks to the practical clamp.
