Plastic pallets are widely used in the transportation and logistics storage industry. Standardized and unified transportation management greatly improves the production and transportation efficiency of enterprises. As more and more enterprises choose to use plastic pallets, how to choose pallets that are suitable for themselves based on the characteristics of different goods and different application environments? Come and learn about the purchasing points of plastic pallets!
Purchase Notice for Plastic pallets
Different usage temperatures directly affect the selection of materials for pallet manufacturing. This is because pallets made of different materials have a normal operating temperature range. For example, the usage temperature of plastic pallets is between 40 and 25 degrees Celsius. Some materials' pallets have strong moisture absorption and cannot be used in damp environments (such as wooden pallets). Otherwise, it will directly affect the service life.
The cleanliness of the environment in which plastic pallets are used. It is necessary to consider the degree of contamination of the pallet due to the usage environment. For environments with high levels of pollution, it is necessary to choose pallets that are resistant to pollution and easy to clean. Plastic pallets, composite plastic wooden pallets, etc
Special requirements for pallet materials of loaded goods. Sometimes the goods on the pallet are corrosive or loaded, so the size and specifications of the transportation vehicles and equipment need to be considered. The appropriate size of the pallet needs to be exactly the same as the size of the transport vehicle. This can improve the full and reasonable utilization of transportation space and reduce transportation costs. Especially considering the size of containers and transport trucks.
Not only should we consider the specifications and dimensions, but also the size of the warehouse and the size of each unit. Considering the packaging specifications of goods loaded on pallets, selecting the appropriate size of pallet based on the packaging specifications of goods loaded on pallets can fully utilize the surface area of the pallet.
Consider the usage interval of plastic pallets. The flow rate of pallets loaded with goods directly affects the selection of pallet size. Generally, goods going to Europe should choose 1200mm and 1000mm pallets, while goods going to Japan should choose 1100mm and 1100mm pallets. The choice of pallet structure in plastic pallet structure directly affects the efficiency of pallet use, and a suitable structure can fully utilize the efficient working characteristics of forklifts.
Determine whether to choose single-sided or double-sided pallets based on whether the goods are stacked on plastic pallets after loading. Single sided pallets have only one load-bearing surface, so they are not suitable for stacking. Otherwise, the lower level goods are prone to damage and need to be loaded after transfer, so it is necessary to choose pallets on both sides.
If plastic pallets are used for shelves in a three-dimensional library, the structure of the pallets should also be considered to determine if they are suitable for the shelves. Generally, only two directions can be used to insert goods from the shelf, so the pallets used on the shelf should be chosen with four forks as much as possible, so that the forklift can extract the goods and improve work efficiency.
