Galvanized pallet is a kind of equipment widely used in many fields such as logistics and warehousing, and the following are its main uses:
I. Logistics and transportation
1. Cargo carrying and consolidation
Galvanized pallets can place scattered goods in a centralized manner, making it easy for forklifts or pallet trucks to load, unload and carry. For example, in the factory shipping area, boxes of small electronic products are placed on galvanized pallets, which can quickly transfer them from the production line to the transport vehicle, improving the efficiency of loading and unloading goods.
It is capable of carrying many types of goods, whether they are lighter weight carton packaged goods or heavier drums of raw materials, etc. can be placed. For example, chemical companies use it to carry plastic drums containing liquid chemicals, which can be easily transferred between different means of transportation (e.g. trucks, ships) through the uniform specifications of the pallet.
2. Protecting the safety of goods
Galvanized pallets reduce vibration and collision of goods during transportation. Its sturdy structure provides stable support for the goods, preventing them from crushing each other or being damaged by vehicle bumps. For example, when transporting glass products, placing the glass on a galvanized pallet and fixing it with cushioning material around it, the pallet ensures that the glass will not be broken due to the shaking of the vehicle during transport.
Galvanized layer also has a certain anti-rust function. When the pallet is used to transport metal products, such as hardware parts, the galvanized layer can prevent the pallet itself from rusting, thus avoiding rust staining the goods, to ensure the cleanliness and quality of the goods.
3. Improved logistics efficiency
Standardized galvanized pallet sizes (e.g. the common 1200mm x 1000mm, etc.) are easy to use for logistics facilities. In the warehouse shelves, transport vehicles and containers and other logistics equipment, these standard size pallets can be well adapted to achieve rapid storage and transfer of goods. For example, in automated three-dimensional warehouses, forklifts with automatic identification can accurately deposit or remove goods into or out of shelves according to the standard size of the pallet.
Since pallets can be easily operated by forklifts or pallet trucks, the number of times goods are handled can be reduced. Compared to manual handling, the use of pallets can greatly increase the speed of handling. For example, in the port loading and unloading of goods, the use of pallets with forklift loading and unloading, can make each container loading and unloading time is shortened, to speed up the turnover speed of the ship.
Second, storage management
1. Cargo storage and stacking
Galvanized pallets in the warehouse can achieve three-dimensional storage of goods. Stacking the pallets or placing them on the shelves can make full use of the warehouse space. For example, in the e-commerce warehouse, cartons filled with clothing are placed on galvanized pallets, and the pallets can be stacked in multiple layers, greatly increasing the storage capacity of the warehouse.
Convenient classification and positioning of goods. By numbering or marking the pallets, it is possible to quickly locate where specific goods are located. For example, in the auto parts warehouse, different types of parts on different pallets, warehouse managers can quickly find the required parts storage location according to the pallet identification.
2. Inventory Inventory and Management
Inventory counting by pallet is more convenient and quicker. Inventory personnel can quickly calculate the total amount of inventory by counting the number of pallets and the number of goods on each pallet. For example, in large food warehouses, pallets containing different food products are stored in separate areas, and inventory can be accurately completed by checking the number of pallets and the list of goods on each pallet.
For goods that require FIFO management, galvanized pallets can help realize this principle. Will be first into the inventory of goods pallets placed in the location of easy to take out, after the inventory of goods pallets placed in turn back, so as to ensure the quality of goods and the effective management of the expiration date. For example, in a pharmaceutical warehouse, pallets containing medicines are arranged according to the date of manufacture to ensure that medicines produced first leave the warehouse first.
