Abstract

The paper deals with a construction design of the rack system which will be used for storage of metallurgical rod material in a manufacturing engineering company. To meet requirements for manual control of the pull-out mechanism it will be determined the force exerted by the worker on the hand crank required to pull in and pull out the racking system at the full load. In addition, stress analysis was conducted by means of finite element method.

Highlights

  • Storage cannot be separated from material flows in all spheres of economy

  • Thats why it is necessary to provide with optimal conditions for storage and handling and at the same time it is simple to solve the technology of handled items offtake. Such piles of rod material are to be stocked in racks and we recommend to seize them by means of a grab bucket

  • The aim of this article was the design and strength analysis of the rack with pull-out arms intended for using in an engineering company for steel tubes storage

Summary

Introduction

Storage cannot be separated from material flows in all spheres of economy. The need for storage of material of all kinds arises due to the different pace of production and consumption, the different flow in all levels of a logistic chain. Thats why it is necessary to provide with optimal conditions for storage and handling and at the same time it is simple to solve the technology of handled items offtake. Such piles of rod material are to be stocked in racks and we recommend to seize them by means of a grab bucket. Using this way of handling we do not need to bind material and in terms of controlling it is very suitable [6].
