Three-Legged Shelf System
Functional and Aesthetic: Three-Legged Shelf Design
Three-Legged Shelf Systems are another application of back-to-back warehouse shelving systems. They allow for loading two pallet depths back-to-back, thereby maximizing storage capacity in the same area with less aisle space. Visually similar to the Double system, the principle involves using 'Intermediate Connection Profiles' at the back of the Back-to-Back System to create a second row of units of variable lengths as needed. Unlike the Double system, which uses 4 legs in a unit, the Three-Legged System achieves unit depths according to your needs using only 3 legs. This reduces unit costs as the leg profile, diagonal, and beams are used less. It is preferred for stacking larger-sized products (such as plywood sheets, long pallet products, etc.). Due to its double-depth nature, telescopic carriers are required in stacking machines for efficient handling.

Preferred Stacking Equipment for Three-Legged Systems
Stacking Equipment Lifting Heights: The height at which stacking equipment operates within a storage system depends on factors such as the warehouse space height, the weights and dimensions of the products to be stacked, and how many tiers are stacked on top of each other. Stacking equipment should be selected based on the desired stacking heights and the weight of the products to be stored to ensure it meets operational requirements.
Aisle Width: In three-legged systems, unit configurations are determined based on operational needs, but the spacing between them (Aisle Width) should be determined according to the maneuverability of the stacking equipment to be used. Turning radii can vary depending on the brand and model of the equipment.
