Characteristics and Optimization Scheme of Space Utilization for Beam style Shelves The core of space utilization for crossbeam shelves lies in the balance between flexible adjustment and convenient access. The floor height can be freely adjusted according to the height of the goods, for example, when storing 1.5-meter-high cardboard boxes, the floor height can be set to 1.8 meters (with reserved space for forklift operation); When storing equipment that is 2 meters high, the floor height can be adjusted to 2.3 meters to avoid wasting space. However, due to the limited demand for forklift access, a 3-4 meter wide passage needs to be reserved, so the space utilization rate (about 40% -60%) is lower than that of fluent and shuttle truck shelves, making it more suitable for scenarios where "access efficiency" is prioritized. If space utilization needs to be improved, it can be achieved through optimization design: for example, using "double deep shelving", setting up two layers of shelving on both sides of the same channel to reduce the number of channels; Alternatively, use a high-level forklift to raise the shelf height to 8-12 meters and utilize vertical space. For small warehouses, "attic style crossbeam shelves" can also be used, with platforms built on top of the shelves to achieve "double-layer storage" and further tap into spatial potential.
