Damage to storage systems by forklifts is an ongoing and costly problem in high-volume distribution centres (DCs) and can contribute to workplace accidents.
In response to high-volume distributors’ need for a more robust pallet-storage solution, Dematic has introduced a tougher ColbyRack beam for heavy-duty operations and a stronger clip to securely fasten the new beams to rack uprights, making accidental dislodgement practically impossible.
Beams around the 2 m level are prone to damage if reach truck operators accidentally back into them while retrieving a pallet from the opposite face of the pallet storage system, and to eliminate the damage and risk associated with this recurring problem the new type of beam is made from two U-beam sections.
The heavy-duty Colby UU-Beam is claimed to increase frontal impact resistance by over 200%.
