JA Knock-Down A-Frame Rack for Tempered and Laminated Glass Packs
Mgrack is a double-sided A-frame glass storage rack for glass fabrication workshops, tempering lines, laminating lines and packing areas. The bolted knock-down design separates the base, triangular frames and cross beams for customer assembly, then allows empty racks to be nested or stacked for return transport. Confirm your maximum glass size, required one-side width, lifting method and local height limit before selecting a configuration.
Send Glass Size & Height Limit
Return the rack, not the air
A welded one-piece rack still occupies its full envelope when it is empty. Mgrack changes that logistics step: each unit is shipped as a base module, four triangular A-frame supports and two connecting cross beams. After delivery, your team bolts the modules together. When the rack is empty, the structure can be separated and the bases and frames nested or stacked independently. This is the practical reason to choose a KD rack for a repeated glass-pack loop rather than a permanently assembled rack.
The glass size sets the rack geometry
One-side storage width is not an isolated number. It is governed by the rack’s total height, the maximum panel size and the required A-frame angle. A 90° storage angle is a project design target, not a universal conclusion for every Mgrack configuration. If a wider one-side position is needed, reducing total height may be one option; the final geometry must be checked against the largest glass and the handling method.
| Item | Reference / selection basis | What we need from you |
|---|---|---|
| Reference outer size | 2,000 × 1,120 × 2,100 mm, from opportunity 15402 only | Maximum glass length, height and pack thickness |
| Reference one-side width | 310 mm, from opportunity 15402 only; 400 mm was not met in that geometry | Required width per side and quantity of glass per side |
| Angle and height | Check total height and the intended 90° relationship together; do not transfer this angle conclusion to other sizes | Maximum local height and whether empty racks must be stacked |
| Reference load | 2,000 kg per rack in the 15402 configuration only | Unit glass-pack weight and whether the load is evenly distributed |
| Handling interfaces | Two-side forklift entry and a top lifting plate are shown in the 15402 proposal | Fork dimensions, approach direction, crane use and lifting procedure |
| Reference shipping count | 36 units in a 20GP and 90 units in a 40HQ for opportunity 15402 only | Container type, packing method and empty-rack return plan |
| Assembly and finish | Bolted KD assembly; Q235A and electrostatic powder coating appear in the referenced technical samples | Who will assemble on arrival and the required surface-protection level |
A quote starts with four numbers
Send the largest glass dimensions, pack weight, required one-side width and the maximum height available in your plant. Add whether the rack will be pushed, forked, lifted, or used with more than one method.
- Glass dimensions and pack weight
- One-side width and 90° geometry requirement
- Forklift, crane, caster and empty-stack constraints
Built for the loaded trip and the empty return
The working value is the combination of upright storage, contact protection and multiple handling options. Select the interfaces that match your floor, forklift and overhead lifting practice rather than treating every accessory as standard.
1. Bolt together after delivery, then separate for return transport
The KD package is made up of one base, four triangular A-frame supports and two connecting cross beams. Place the base level, insert the triangular supports into their intended positions and fully tighten every supplied bolt before loading glass. The receiving customer performs this assembly. For empty return or storage, remove the bolts and separate the components; nest the bases and stack the A-frame parts only on a stable, verified support arrangement. The proposal for opportunity 15402 indicated approximately two empty-rack layers, subject to the customer’s local height limit and safe stacking review.
2. Protect the pack while it moves between processes
Rubber strips or pads separate the glass from the steel contact surfaces. A limit rod can be positioned at the base, while a ratchet tie-down connects to the upper frame to restrain the pack against the A-frame. This is a physical securing system, not a substitute for your handling procedure: tighten the strap without damaging the glass, keep the load balanced across both sides and move at a controlled speed. Caster, forklift and top-lifting options can be coordinated for internal transfer; confirm the actual lifting equipment and load path before using the lifting lugs.
Protection and option choices
Contact surfaces can use an embedded C-channel rubber strip or a flat rubber pad, depending on the frame detail and the panel edge. A ratchet strap and padded limit rod are available where the handling plan needs positive restraint, but the rod occupies part of the one-side storage space. Caster choices include fixed and swivel/braked arrangements; polyurethane wheels can be considered where vibration and noise matter. Forklift openings, lifting lugs, quick-release casters and AGV-ready bases require configuration review.
Packaging, suitability and limits
Stretch film plus strapping avoids an added packaging charge but cannot fully prevent local paint scuffing from parts contacting each other in transit; this affects appearance, not the stated function. Wood-crate packaging offers more protection but costs more and reduces loading quantity. Mgrack fits repetitive internal handling of glass, tempered or laminated glass packs, stone slabs, solar panels and door/window panels. It is not the right default for a permanently fixed rack, extreme oversized panels requiring special airborne lifting, uneven floors with uncontrolled pushing, or a buyer who will not provide assembly labor.
Worried about scratched or shifting glass packs?
Send your maximum glass size, required one-side width, pack weight, handling method and local height limit. We will check the rack height, A-frame geometry, restraint option and empty-rack stacking plan instead of applying the 15402 reference dimensions to your project.
