storage cage

Storage cage, also known as warehouse cage, butterfly cage, or iron cage, is an important type of logistics container in storage and transportation. The following is a detailed introduction to storage cages:
1、 Main features
Fixed capacity: Storage cages have the characteristic of fixed storage capacity for items, making them neatly stacked, easy to store at a glance, and convenient for inventory counting.
High space utilization: Storage cages can effectively improve the effective utilization of storage space, and folding storage can greatly save warehouse space.
Durable and sturdy: The storage cage is sturdy and durable, easy to transport, reusable, and can effectively reduce the labor consumption and packaging costs of storage enterprises.
2、 Main components and structure
The main components of storage cages are cage mesh manufacturing and chassis manufacturing. There are various specifications for the mesh spacing of its mesh welding, such as 50 × 100, 100 × 100, 50 × 50, etc. The bottom of the storage cage is generally welded with U-shaped channel steel, which is rolled by a cold-rolled strip steel rolling mill. The four legs of the bottom are stamped and formed by stamping parts. Generally, the formed pieces are two stamped parts, and then the two stamped parts are welded together. The foot height of the storage cage is generally 100mm, but there are also heights of 120mm.
3、 Main categories
Folding storage cage: The design of folding storage cages is to provide convenience for access. When stacking storage, the small door can be opened to access goods, avoiding the trouble of flipping through the warehouse.
Traction storage cage: Traction storage cages are equipped with traction devices on the left and right positions of the storage cage, usually with casters. The storage cage is connected in front and back, making it easy to move freely on smooth ground surfaces.
Caster storage cage: The bottom of the caster storage cage is equipped with wheels, usually two universal wheels and two brake wheels, which operate flexibly and lightweight, and are mostly suitable for production workshops.
Heavy duty storage cage: Heavy duty storage cages are specially customized storage cages according to customer needs, with characteristics such as large load-bearing capacity and sturdy structure.
4、 Application scope
The application scope of storage cages is wide, including but not limited to the following industries:
The whole vehicle and spare parts industry for automobiles, motorcycles, bicycles, and other transportation vehicles.
Stamping, die-casting, hardware, mold and other industries.
Industries such as mechanical manufacturing, metal products, toys, lighting, plastic and hardware.
Industries such as computers, electronics, household appliances, electrical cable equipment, etc.
Wood, wooden, steel furniture, and handicraft industries.
Metal tools, sanitary ware, building hardware and accessories industry.
Industry of heat treatment, electroplating, baking paint and spraying technology.
Shoe materials, plastics, printing, and other craft industries.
Commercial warehousing and logistics systems such as shopping malls, supermarkets, highways, station terminals, tobacco postal services, etc.
In addition, storage cages can also be used for storage shelves, assembly lines, and stacking. The storage cage with wheels can be conveniently and quickly rotated in the workshop, and the storage cage with hollow boards can prevent small items from being missed.
5、 Identification and discrimination
When choosing a storage cage, the following points should be noted for identification and recognition:
Material: The material of the storage cage needs to meet the standard.
Welding: The welding between the mesh and the storage cage base must be firm, and the junction of each wire of the mesh must be welded without any detachment or leakage. The storage cage base must be fully welded to ensure strength.
In summary, storage cages are logistics containers with multiple advantages and a wide range of applications, playing an important role in storage and transportation.
