Palian Cape Editorial No 2

Palian Cape Editorial No 2

Since the launch of Palian Cape in the new facility in Westlake Business this year, Palian (Pty) Ltd has further used this platform to introduce a number of advanced new products;

The first; Trademarked as Racklock™, is a new patented pallet racking system. The system is absolutely unique in the market and features a Seamless beam with integrated connector. Traditionally beams sections were manufactured in two “c” sections welded together opposed to the new seamless section, which is roll formed from flat to round section, induction welded to join, and then formed to a rectangular section of either 90 or 125 mm high. The sections are manufactured in three different thicknesses, in relation to the required capacity. Seamless sections offers as much as 30% less deflection under maximum loads when compared to boxed beams and further offers a much smoother finished surface, that will not collect dirt or cause paint to crack, in the traditional joints of a boxed beam.

Furthermore the section allows for the connector to be fully integrated to the section, with no welding present. This further improves manufacturing efficiency, whilst strengthening the overall system, by locking up against the upright and having no welding present. Other improvements include a new hexagonal base plate that improves load spreading to the floor and an additional “v” shape that is roll formed into the front face of the Uprights, for additional strength and esthetics.

The second is an advanced Boltless Shelving System, Polyclip. This product is set to replace the traditional Nut & Bolt Angle Shelving, which has proved to be a reliable, and robust system, but very labour intensive in installing and shelf adjustment, due to the vast amounts of Nuts & Bolts used in the system.

Polyclip features stronger vertical angles uprights that are joined by two levels of horizontal supports that simply clip in. The shelves use a uniquely designed Shelfclip that not only supports the shelves on each corner, but uses the connection to transfer shelf loads to the upright much more efficiently. Levels can be adjusted by simply relocating the clip, with absolutely no Nuts & Bolts in the system. Load capacities vary from 160Kg to 300 kg per shelf level.

Both of the new products are available Ex-stock in a variety of sizes from Palian Cape, Westlake Industrial.
