In glass fabrication, the difference between profit and loss often lies in the scrap bin. Usable off-cuts (remnants) are frequently discarded simply because they are difficult to store and retrieve. Leaning them against a wall is a safety hazard; stacking them flat makes them inaccessible. |
Modern architectural fabrication shops are rarely mono-material. You might process glass, ACM panels, acrylics, or even high-end stone veneers.
As illustrated in the header image, our racks are not limited to glazing. The universal slotted base and sturdy Q235A steel frame are engineered to hold any rigid sheet material. This makes them an invaluable asset for:
We believe in total transparency regarding our build quality. Unlike competitors who hide behind vague terms like "heavy-duty," we provide detailed engineering specs.
The technical drawing below illustrates the robust configuration of our caster assemblies and the precise spacing of the harp dividers. Every component, from the M12 bolts to the 5mm thick steel base plate, is calculated to ensure the rack remains rigid even when unevenly loaded with heavy remnants on one side.
Our engineering specifications ensure that every rack meets strict safety factors, crucial for handling variable loads of off-cuts.
Inventory that you cannot see is inventory you will never use. When off-cuts are piled horizontally, the bottom sheets effectively disappear until inventory day.
By utilizing a vertical Sheet Material Organizer, every piece of stock is visible. An operator can instantly see, "We have a 400mm x 800mm piece of 6mm clear tempered," and use it for a transom or sidelite. This visibility prevents the purchasing of new material when you already have usable stock on hand.
Yes. The racks are excellent for granite slabs, quartz off-cuts, metal sheets (aluminum/steel), plywood, and acrylics. The PVC sleeves protect delicate surfaces on all these materials.
Loose sheets leaning against walls are a major OSHA citation risk (tipping hazard). Our racks secure every sheet individually, eliminating the risk of a "domino effect" tip-over and clearing aisles of trip hazards.
Yes. The wide wheelbase and low center of gravity are engineered to maintain stability even if the rack is partially loaded or loaded unevenly, which is common with remnant storage.
Absolutely. We can manufacture custom base plates with wider slot spacing (e.g., 30mm or 40mm) specifically for stone fabricators or for storing thick laminated bullet-resistant glass.
Our standard harp racks have fixed welded or bolted dividers for maximum strength. However, for specific applications, we can design adjustable systems. Contact our engineering team for custom requests.
