Automotive Transport Returnable Shipping Racks
Important Notes:
Minimum Order Quantity: 20 racks. Due to the custom design and manufacturing complexity, we require a minimum order of 20 returnable shipping racks.
Custom Design Requirement: We do not offer a universal rack design. The image provided is an example of a past project.
Required Drawings: To provide a quote, we need manufacturing drawings or photos of your current automotive shipping racks, or CAD drawings of the parts to be stored. Without this information, we cannot proceed.
Design Services:
Custom Rack Design: For $3,000, our factory engineers can create detailed rack drawings, provided you supply part drawings (We’re happy to sign an NDA). A purchase order is required to initiate this service – or it can be put on a credit card.
Prototypes: Available at an additional cost.
Next Steps:
Please send your drawings or photos to sales@rackandshelf.com. If you do not have existing racks, provide CAD drawings of the parts, and our engineers will design a rack to fit.
Custom automotive returnable shipping racks offer an adaptable solution for handling large or sensitive parts and assemblies, especially when bulk containers or pallets are not suitable. These racks ensure product protection during transportation, making sure that parts arrive undamaged and in the correct orientation for efficient manufacturing line operations.
These racks can be tailored to specific needs. They can be designed to be stackable, foldable, with or without casters, and equipped with proper dunnage to securely hold products. Fit for various industries and products, from engines to car doors to tires, they provide flexibility and adaptability to different manufacturing processes, including model changes.
The flexibility of these custom material handling racks extends to their configuration, allowing for adjustments to accommodate model changes or new product lines. Using replaceable dunnage or stanchions, companies can avoid the expense of purchasing new racks, improving efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
When considering a new rack, factors to consider include dimensions, load capacity, method of internal movement (forklift, manual, towed), fork access preference, stackability, storage conditions, part fit-up, transportation method, dunnage supplier preference, need for casters or runners, and labeling requirements. Addressing these considerations ensures the selection of racks that meet specific operational requirements and maximize efficiency.
