Cantilever support

In mechanical devices, cantilever supports are commonly used to support protruding components, such as the arm frame of a windmill, which achieves its function through vertical or rotational movement. In storage systems, cantilever racks are a typical application, utilizing specialized profile columns and high-strength cantilevers. They can be designed as single-sided or double-sided structures, specifically for storing long materials, circular materials, plates, or tubes, among other irregular goods. They feature lightweight construction, good load-bearing capacity (e.g., a single arm can support up to 1000kg), and high space utilization. ‌

The structural design of cantilever supports emphasizes stability and adaptability. For instance, overall stability is enhanced through back tensioning, connecting rods, or welding reinforcement, and the layer height or combined length can be adjusted according to needs. In mining engineering, the key layer cantilever beam structure is used to analyze the movement patterns of roof strata, which affects the manifestation of mining pressure and the design of supports. ‌

The application of cantilever racks spans multiple industries, including machinery manufacturing, warehousing logistics, and mining. Their advantage lies in their ability to effectively utilize space and accommodate the storage or support needs of special materials. However, it is important to pay attention to the requirements for ground flatness of the installation site and the safety of workers' operations.
