🔧Why Width Adjustment Is a Game Changer

Rack Width Adjustment is a critical feature in any industrial drying solution. Whether you’re in woodworking, automotive, or aerospace manufacturing, handling parts of varying widths can be a daily challenge. FlexiRacks addresses this issue with an innovative center post design that allows effortless horizontal adjustments.

From storing long panels to delicate finished parts, manufacturers struggle to find one racking solution that accommodates the wide variety of part sizes involved in daily production. Most existing rack systems are rigid and have fixed widths. They are not easily adaptable. This forces facilities to either compromise on safety, waste valuable floor space, or create custom, DIY solutions that don’t scale or last.

Let’s break it down:

⚠️ The Challenge

Traditional racking systems fall short when it comes to adjustability. If the rack is too narrow, wide parts overhang dangerously, leading to damaged parts. If the rack is too wide, you’re wasting space and losing stacking density, not to mention risking unbalanced loads.

In either case, manufacturers are left constantly modifying their storage setups, or worse, buying entirely new systems every time product specs change. This not only hurts efficiency but also significantly increases operational costs and reduces floor flexibility.

✅ The FlexiRacks Solution: Width That Works for You

At FlexiRacks, we understand that no two production lines are the same. That’s why we engineered our racks with adjustable center posts, giving you full control over the usable width between arms — without tools, hassle, or guesswork.

With our smart width adjustment feature, your rack adapts to your parts, not the other way around.

Let’s take a closer look:

🔄 Easy & Precise Width Adjustment

Whether you’re handling narrow trim pieces or bulky panels, adjusting the rack width is as simple as loosening and sliding the center post to your desired width, then locking it in place.

At FlexiRacks 3CW and 4CWL models, here’s what you get:

For 3CW Model:

• Minimum Width: 2.5 inches / 63.5 mm
• Maximum Width: 25 inches / 635 mm

For 4CWL Model:

• Minimum Width: 2.5 inches / 63.5 mm
• Maximum Width: 55 inches / 1,345 mm

This wide range makes it ideal for manufacturers who deal with multiple product lines or handle seasonal or batch-based production where parts vary greatly in size and volume.

🛠️ Designed for Speed & Simplicity

The center post doesn’t require a technician or specialized tools to adjust. One operator can adjust the spacing in seconds, reducing downtime and improving changeover efficiency.

• Need to switch from narrow cabinet fronts to full-sized panels? Slide and lock.
• Want to optimize the rack for different departments or workflows? Adjust on the fly.

💡 Real-World Benefits

Here’s what this level of adjustability means for your shop:

• Maximize space efficiency – Store more parts per rack by setting ideal spacing.
• Improve part protection – Prevent rubbing, sagging, or overhanging that causes damage.
• Boost productivity – Faster setup means less wait time between jobs.
• Enhance safety – Balanced loads and better part containment protect workers and materials.

💬 Final Thought

In industries where every inch counts and every minute matters, FlexiRacks’ Width Adjustment feature delivers unmatched adaptability. Whether you’re running a high-volume production line or handling custom jobs, this innovative design ensures that your rack grows with your business.

If you’re tired of fixed-width frustrations or makeshift modifications, now’s the time to explore the smarter way to store, dry, and move your parts.
