The main characteristics and usage methods of pallet trucks
A stack of goods on the ground, if transported box by box, may take half an hour and cause shortness of breath, sore waist, and hand pain. If loaded onto pallets, it has mobility, but lacks driving force. If a pallet handling truck is placed below the pallet, it will quickly enter a moving state and become a flexible mobile cargo. It can not only lift and lower, but also move. Even a pile of goods weighing 5 tons can be transported to the destination in a few minutes.
This is the charm of using pallets and pallet trucks in combination. This combination is now widely used in production, transportation, warehousing, and circulation fields, and is an effective means to quickly improve handling efficiency and orderly material flow processes. It plays a huge role in reducing production costs and improving production efficiency.
Tray handling vehicles have the advantages of small body size, light weight, large load capacity, good load stability, and can work smoothly in narrow passages. They are easy to operate, reliable and safe, and are common loading, unloading, and handling tools.
How to choose a suitable transport vehicle?
1. Clearly define the weight of the goods, select according to the tonnage, and prevent overloading;
2. Select according to the tray specifications.
3. Select based on the factory floor material and usage environment. For example, PU wheels are suitable for marble paint and epoxy flooring, while nylon wheels are suitable for cement flooring.
The usage method of a pallet truck is as follows: When working, insert the forks into the pallet, shake the handle up and down to lift the forks with a hydraulic jack, and then lift the pallet or container off the ground. Then, use manual or electric drive to make it move. After the goods are transported to the destination, press the pedal, the forks fall down, and the pallet is put down. This type of transport vehicle is often used for loading and unloading at warehouse receiving and dispatching platforms or in situations where stacking is not required between various processes in the workshop.
