What should be paid attention to in the maintenance of plastic pallets?


Plastic pallets (also known as plastic pallets or plastic pads) are a commonly used logistics and distribution tool for carrying and transporting goods. In order to ensure the service life and function of plastic pallets, maintenance is essential. The following are some of the key aspects of plastic pallet maintenance:

Cleaning:

Clean plastic pallets regularly to remove dirt, grease and residue. This helps prevent goods from slipping off and damage to the pallet surface.

Wash with mild detergent and clean water, avoid using harsh or aggressive chemicals.

Check for damage:

Check the plastic pallets regularly for cracks, cracks or deformation. These damages may affect the carrying capacity and safety of the pallet.

For less damaged pallets, repair or reinforcement can be considered to extend their service life.

Avoid excessive loading:

Ensure that plastic pallets are not overloaded, exceeding their recommend carrying capacity may cause damage.

Avoid extreme temperatures:

Avoid exposing plastic pallets to extremely high or low temperatures, as this may cause deformation or damage to the plastic material.

Storage conditions:

When storing plastic pallets, make sure they are in a dry, ventilated environment to avoid moisture or mold growth.

Avoid exposing pallets to direct sunlight to prevent UV-induced aging.

Periodic Flipping:

If the plastic pallet is load-bearing for a long time, it is recommended to turn over or change the position regularly to evenly distribute the load and extend the service life.

Avoid improper use:

Avoid using plastic pallets for improper operations, such as foot pads, seating or other non-design purposes.

Select the right pallet:

Choose the right plastic pallet according to the characteristics and needs of the goods, such as size, carrying capacity, stacking height, etc.

By following these maintenance measures, you can ensure the safe use of plastic pallets and extend their service life, thereby improving logistics efficiency and reducing replacement costs.

What are the characteristics of the reinforced design of plastic pallet manufacturers?

From the structural layout, the manufacturer will carefully plan the position of the stiffener. Generally speaking, the reinforcement will be distributed in the bottom and side of the pallet and other key parts. At the bottom, the stiffeners are usually distributed in a criss-cross grid. This layout is like building a solid frame structure in the building, which can effectively distribute the weight of the pallet. When the goods are placed on the pallet, the reinforcing ribs at the bottom can evenly transmit the gravity to the ground, reducing the deformation caused by excessive local pressure. On the sides, stiffeners are often placed along the edges to enhance the lateral stability of the pallet. For example, in the process of forklift handling, the reinforcing ribs on the side can resist the lateral force generated when the forklift is inserted, and prevent the pallet from being damaged due to uneven force.


How is the suitability of different handling equipment (such as forklifts, manual trucks, etc.) with plastic pallets?

In the fields of logistics and warehousing, the efficient handling of plastic pallets is inseparable from the appropriate handling equipment. Understanding the suitability of different handling equipment and plastic pallets is of great significance for optimizing the operation process, improving work efficiency and ensuring the safety of goods.
