AM12 is a highly versatile system that is suitable for small,

medium and large installations. It is produced in three

versions: light (L), medium (M) and heavy (P), each of which

is different due to the use of steel strips of varying

thickness. This ensures solutions to a vast range of needs,

thanks to the possibility to adjust the load capacity of the

frames, guaranteeing an excellent combination of

technical performance and economic benefits. The

special design of the uprights means all the beams can be

used on any type of frame. The ends of the beams are fitted

with brackets, comprising 4 or 5 hooks, on three sides of

the upright. The upright coupling lugs, made by deep

drawing, are set out in different ways and consequently

Drum Supports

work either under tension or under compression. Joint efficiency between uprights and beams increases what

can be defined as the "joint coefficient", optimising vertical and longitudinal capacity, to the extent that it is possible to

minimise bracing without affecting the stability of the

structure.

A safety pin prevents any accidental disconnection of the beams. The AM12 components are available with painted

or galvanised finish. The Armes Maini solution guarantees

the best balance among stability, flexibility, ease of

assembly and safety.

The Global Storage System

The AM12 is more than just racking, rather it represents a

system whose versatility and flexibility allow the creation of

multiple storage solutions. More than fifty years’

experience, a highly professional technical staff, and the

synergy among the different Ferretto Group Business Units

mean that customers are offered a design and quotation

service that ensures the most suitable solutions to

specific needs, together with the best possible value for

money.

Upright12-fold member made from cold-formed galvanized steel. It comes on 1.5, 1.8 and 2.5 mm thickness which permits addressing several required variables such as frame capacity which can be extended upto almost 20 tons. Uniquely indexed slots at 75 mm pitch on upright make the system more flexible in terms of beam position.

BeamDouble-C profile made from cold-formed steel coils Brackets welded to the ends of the beam hook it onto the uprights. Beams can be modified to support the decking panels as specifically required. Double-C profile beams perform better than tubular profiles under extreme loading conditions, providing bigger bay length and more storage space.

Upright and Beam

The Vital Connections between upright and beam is one of the most crucial elements of a storage system unit.

The beam-end is unique for the below reasons:

• Stamped tongues on their front surfaces that clip onto the upright’s special rectangular-shaped slots;

• ‘U’ profiles that wrap around the upright to create the perfect locking mechanism;

Security pins provided with each beam that prevent accidental unlocking

•

Upright and floorThe AM12 employs specially-designed footplates and high-tensile strength expansion bolts to secure uprights to floors. Where floors are uneven, a complete range of shims ensures absolute surface accuracy

Connection“ Wrapping” frame and beam connections also add to the structure’s superior rigidity.

Pallet Racking

The pallet racking system consists of a body of frames,

connected by horizontal beams, allowing storage on

vertical loading levels. This is the most widespread and

simple application of the AM12 system. Thanks to the use

of special beams and plates creating ‘loading levels’, the

AM12 pallet racking system is also suitable for picking and

storing different loading units, such as boxes, crates,

containers, etc. The possibility to develop multi-tier

racking systems with intermediate load-bearing

walkways further widens the range of possible

applications. The versatility of the system, together with

the extremely stiff structure created by the uprights,

beams and joints, means systems can be developed in

different shapes and sizes and for all uses, moreover

guaranteeing excellent price-performance ratio.

Drive-in Racking

The AM12 drive-in system is the ideal solution for making high density storage. Typically configured as an ‘island’, it can be made with various depths and allows the storage of uniform material in each aisle where the pallets are located. The pallet is normally picked according to LIFO

logic (last in - first out), meaning the last item placed is the

first one to be picked. In some cases, the aisle may contain material sorted by shipment and not by item. The intrinsic technical features of the drive-in storage system require considerable transverse stability, making AM12 the ideal

response due to its strength.

According to the specific characteristics of the system, this is progressively completed and reinforced with horizontal and vertical cross bracing components, or suitable ‘brace towers’, which are required especially for larger

systems with double front access, and upright protections. Finally, there are floor guides that assist

access by forklift and guide the forklift’s travel along the aisles.

Self-Supporting Storage System

There is no doubt that the most advanced development of the AM12 racking is in the field of self-supporting

warehouses, in which the storage structure is also the actual building itself. This is an area in which very few companies are able to offer solutions, as the racking,

besides containing the material to be stored, also needs to support the entire construction. The system therefore has

to meet functional, static and dynamic requirements (considering risks related to rain, snow, wind and earthquake) and comply with building regulations. Along with the necessary technical support, Armes Maini can also supply customers with the calculat ion documentation for the building regulation authorities.

MPS shelves feature innovative, patented characteristics. Made from just one single piece manufactured exclusively by forming, these have a Z-shaped longitudinal section that

avoids the need for braze-welding or spot welding, as often found on similar products. This solution, as well as ensuring significant strength, offers high capacities and

avoids safety problems, as all accessible sharp edges have been eliminated. Depending on the size of the shelves, in addition, storage containers with mobile dividers can be used for storing small- or medium-sized loose material.

D20

The MPS multi-purpose shelving system comprises D20, D30 and D60 uprights. D20 is the appropriate functional response to the specific needs of archives, libraries and stores. The T-shaped uprights with eight folds provide the shelving considerable strength and load capacity, as well as the possibility to create mezzanines with one walkway and even two levels. The D30 and D60 uprights, which

differ only in terms of thickness, are able to fulfil specific needs for high capacity and/or extended heights. The six-fold design allows easy connection of diagonals and link bars that ensure high performance and allow multi-tiered systems to be obtained for fully exploiting the available space.

ShelfThe special configuration of the shelves allows the use of slot-in stiffeners in pre-defined positions, which considerably increases load capacity. The possibility to change the number of stiffeners at any time, and easily position them, makes it possible to vary the capacity of the shelving system over time according to its specific use.

The shelves can be regular or perforated, allowing the application of dividers suited to create various-sized compartments. On the regular shelves, the dividers clip onto and can slide along the shelves.

The Heart of a SystemThe LSM8 system guarantees maximum performance using minimum material. Each component is optimised right from the design stage: assembly is simple, fast and easy to plan, reducing any inconvenience on the installation site. As the LSM8 items are only bolted, all the components are delivered ready for assembly, and consequently finished to the highest technological level. The components used when installing the system for the first time can also be used again if it is necessary to adapt or change the layout of the system. The LSM8 system features a small number of components, all standard and suited to be kept in stock. The central element is the capital, available in different variants depending on the

position of the column in relation to the structure, and designed to ensure simple and fast assembly between the beams and columns. The 8-fold sigma profile beam, essential for covering long spans, is available in various sizes and thicknesses. Different heights (250 and 300 mm), different thickness (from 2 to 4 mm) and the use of appropriate steel grade mean the beams can achieve very high performance. The LSM8 mezzanine floor, being a fully self-supporting structure, is designed and built to meet static and dynamic load requirements that take into account several risk factors, including seismic events on request.
