Source: kuda 2025-04-14
Lightweight plastic pallets are the basic logistics units used for storing, loading, unloading, and turnover of goods in logistics and warehousing. Their core characteristics and usage scenarios are as follows:
1、 Definition and Basic Characteristics
Material and Function: Made of plastic, it is used in conjunction with forklifts, shelves, and other equipment, mainly for storing, transporting, and stacking lightweight goods (such as electronic products, daily necessities, etc.).
Self weight and economy: Light weight (usually a few kilograms to over ten kilograms), low raw material consumption, flexible handling, and low cost.
2、 Load bearing capacity
Dynamic load range: generally 0.5-1 ton, some models (such as T24) can reach a dynamic load of 0.5 tons and a static load of 1 ton.
Restrictions: Not applicable to shelving or heavy cargo stacking.
3、 Structural design features
Nine legged or seven legged design: common nine legged grid structure, the bottom can be stacked on top of each other to save storage space; The seven legged type is suitable for lightweight moisture-proof turnover.
Surface reinforcement ribs: Some models (such as T24) have three reinforcement ribs on the surface to enhance local load-bearing capacity.
4、 Applicable scenarios and advantages
Application areas:
Warehouse preparation or export transportation of electronic products and daily necessities.
Cooperate with manual hydraulic forklifts or mechanical forklifts to complete short distance turnover.
Core advantages: economical and practical, easy to operate, especially suitable for large but lightweight goods.
5、 Comparison with heavy-duty pallets
Comparison Dimension Light Plastic Tray Heavy Plastic Tray
Structure type: 9-legged/7-legged nested type, Sichuan/Tian/double-sided type
Applicable scenarios include light cargo turnover, flat ground storage for heavy cargo loading and unloading, and shelving for load-bearing
From the above characteristics, it can be seen that lightweight plastic pallets have the core advantages of lightness, economy, and flexibility, and play an irreplaceable role in lightweight logistics scenarios.
