1. How long will take for a design for my item?

• Once we have the information on your product we will have a design to you within a week.  For special like engines we will need your CAD drawing for us to work around in our Solid Works design program.

 

2. What information is needed to have a custom rack designed?

• Length x width x height, along with weight for typical applications such as:
  • Rolls of material, steel, aluminum, or flexible packaging film with defined sizes and weights.
• Loading – unloading methods, access for fork trucks, or pallet jack on 2 or 4 sides
• How many would you like to stack in your warehouse?
• Are there any automated operations in your system?

 

3. Do you have stock sizes of our shipping, moving, storage racks?

• All of our production is for custom builds to meet our clients exacting needs.

 

4. How do you confirm the design will hold the weight?

• The Solid Works CAD that we use for design modeling, has a finite testing module.  The module allows us to apply vertical loads of stress to the entire model.  We apply specific loads to the contact- supporting beams that are critical to safely handling the load.  This module tests the beam strength for lifting as well.
