Five advantages of steel pallets as a means of transport
Steel pallet as a tool for containerized transportation, steel pallet has the following advantages:
(1) Small self-weight. Due to the high weight of steel pallets, the ineffective labor consumed by handling steel pallets in loading and unloading and transportation is less, which can save labor, reduce labor intensity, and shorten the loading and unloading time.
(2) Easy to plate. The use of steel pallets to transport goods, only the goods will be bundled and tightly packed on the steel pallets, which can make the circulation operation difficult and promote the mechanization of loading and unloading.
(3) Easy to return to empty. The steel pallets occupy less transport capacity when they are empty, so they are easy to return to the owner. In addition, the cost of steel pallets is not high, it is easy to hold each other, and you can even not return it after transportation, and use each other's steel pallets to compensate each other.
(4) Large traffic volume. Although the loading capacity of a single steel pallet is smaller than that of a container, it is concentrated. 2 The loading scene of the tray after the quantity and reasonable stacking is much larger than that of the general packaging.
(5) Can be multi-layer stacking. The steel pallets can be stacked in multiple layers, and the storage time is effectively constructed.
The main disadvantage of steel pallets is that the protection of goods is worse than that of containers, open storage is easy and difficult, and there is a need for warehouses and wider channels.
Steel pallets (steel pallets) are the ideal replacement of traditional wooden pallets and plastic pallets, suitable for forklift operation and convenient access to goods.
It is mainly used for multi-purpose ground storage, shelf storage and freight transportation, turnover and other ultra-light metal pallet series. Horizontal platform devices for stowing, stacking, handling and transportation as unit loads. It is one of the important storage and transportation auxiliary equipment in the industry.
