    Reciprocating Piston Engines

    Secure Storage for Reciprocating Pistons - Protect Your Investment.

    Storing reciprocating piston engines in a robust warehouse environment offers a highly practical and cost-effective solution for businesses managing these vital components. Proper warehouse design and organization are paramount to maximizing engine longevity and accessibility. Engines should be stored on pallets, ideally with sufficient space around each unit to facilitate inspection and maintenance. Utilizing sturdy shelving systems, specifically designed for heavy loads, is crucial. Regularly inspect pallets and shelving to ensure structural integrity. Maintain clear aisles for maneuverability and easy access for forklift operations. Dedicated storage areas, clearly labeled with engine type and serial number, are essential for accurate inventory management and rapid retrieval. Strategic placement, considering workflow and common maintenance procedures, minimizes handling and reduces the risk of damage. Utilizing a well-organized warehouse ensures a readily available supply of engines, supporting efficient production schedules and minimizing downtime. The inherent stability and accessibility provided by a warehouse facility create a secure and productive environment, representing a reliable long-term storage strategy.

    Space Requirements

    • Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 200 square feet, an area of 15ft x 13ft is recommended. Height clearance: 12 feet is required for efficient storage.

    • Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation and potential issues with engine components. Storage should be on a level, stable floor. Avoid direct sunlight exposure.

    • Special Handling: Engines are considered fragile items. Each engine unit requires a minimum of 4ft x 4ft of protective padding during storage. Pallet wrap or foam padding is mandatory. Secure all components to prevent movement during handling. Smaller parts should be stored in individual boxes with protective cushioning.

    • Stacking/Shelving: Pallet storage is the most practical method. Utilize 48” high shelving units to maximize vertical space. Stacking should not exceed three levels to prevent instability. Ensure shelving is robust and capable of supporting the weight of engine components.

    • Access Requirements: A loading dock with a minimum width of 12 feet is needed for truck access. The door opening should be at least 10 feet wide to accommodate maneuvering equipment. A clear aisle space of 8 feet is required for forklift access. Utilize a forklift capable of lifting at least 3,000 lbs.
