Plastic pallets are widely used carriers in modern logistics and warehousing, among which flat plastic pallets are widely used due to their simple structure and stable load-bearing characteristics. According to the different bottom support structures, flat pallets are mainly divided into the following styles:
1. Flat nine legged tray
The bottom of the flat nine legged tray is designed with nine support legs, distributed in a grid pattern, ensuring good ventilation at the bottom of the tray and suitable for use in humid environments. Its advantages are light weight, easy handling, and suitable for bidirectional operation of manual and automatic forklifts. In addition, the nine legged structure enhances the impact resistance of the pallet, making it suitable for light cargo transportation and short-term storage.
2. Flat Sichuan style tray
The bottom support structure of the Sichuan shaped tray is arranged in a "Sichuan" shape and usually consists of three longitudinal reinforcing ribs. This design gives the pallet a high load-bearing capacity, making it suitable for stacking and transporting heavy goods. The advantage of Sichuan style pallets lies in their strong stability, especially suitable for storage on high shelves, and they are compatible with most forklifts, making them a common choice in warehousing and logistics.
3. Flat field tray
The bottom of the Tian shaped tray adopts a "Tian" shaped support structure, which is composed of transverse and longitudinal reinforcement ribs intersecting to form a grid like support surface. This design improves the uniform load-bearing capacity of the pallet, making it less prone to deformation when stacking heavy goods. The advantage of the Tianzi tray is its strong compressive strength, suitable for long-term stacking of goods, and suitable for various handling equipment, including forklifts and ground oxen.
4. Flat double-sided tray
The design feature of double-sided pallets is that both the upper and lower sides have flat load-bearing surfaces without obvious foot structures, making them suitable for bidirectional stacking of goods. Its advantage is its flexibility in use, making it convenient for both manual and mechanical handling, especially suitable for scenarios that require frequent flipping, such as food, chemical, and other industries. In addition, double-sided trays usually have high durability and are suitable for long-term cyclic use.
Different styles of flat plastic pallets have their own advantages, and users can choose the appropriate type according to their actual logistics needs. The nine legged tray is lightweight and flexible, the Sichuan shaped tray has stable load-bearing capacity, the Tian shaped tray is resistant to pressure and durable, while the double-sided tray is suitable for bidirectional stacking and high-frequency use scenarios. Choosing the appropriate tray style can help improve logistics efficiency and reduce transportation costs.
