What materials are used to make the specific metal racks?
Specific metal racks must be adapted for various shapes and sizes. This requires precise planning and the use of materials that can easily be modelled and modified and ensure high levels of resistance and durability.
All Ferrero Automotive’s specific metal racks are built using certified high-quality materials designed to offer the optimal response for the needs of the automotive sector. The most frequently use materials include high-tensile steel and stainless steel, which can also be specifically treated based on the requests and needs of every client.
High-strength steel stands out for its robustness and durability, making it ideal for racks that must support heavy loads and withstand intensive operating conditions. Thanks to its mechanical properties, steel offers superior resistance to impacts and wear, ensuring that racks maintain their structural integrity even after prolonged use.
Stainless steel, on the other hand, is known for its high resistance to corrosion and is particularly useful in environments where racks may be exposed to humidity or corrosive agents. Stainless steel therefore ensures that racks remain in perfect operating condition, while at the same time protecting the internal components from potential damage or external contamination.
For specific applications, such as metal racks with columns used in automated lines, materials must not only be resistant but also compatible with automated systems. In these cases, racks can be equipped with specific reinforcements and surface treatments to reduce wear, increase resistance, and improve sliding performance.
