Necessity of logistics and warehousing pallet standardization

    Speaking of logistics, more people think of transport links, transport vehicles, transport routes. But in fact, "logistics" in addition to containing more than transport link includes many individual units, warehousing, forklifts, pallets, etc., are the logistics unit. The Pallet seemingly insignificant, but the role in logistics should not be underestimated, it is considered one of the two key innovations of the 20th century in the logistics industry, has been widely used in the logistics industry, it plays an important role .

    With the rapid development of the logistics industry, the traditional logistics pallet specifications are not unified, it will affect the healthy development of China's logistics enterprises. This effect may not be prominent in the short term, but with the development of the logistics industry, the "bottleneck" effect will become increasingly apparent. Therefore, Pallet urgent need for further standardization in the development of the industry to adapt to rapid and efficient logistics development needs.

    Pallet, for container, stacking, handling and transportation of placing horizontal platform means goods and products as unit load. Simply put, that means a chassis that can carry checked object, or if you are in a large supermarket logistics centers, should be easy to see this carrier for carrying goods, namely Pallet. We can say that the presence of the tray, so that all the goods have the opportunity to static to dynamic goods.

    It is because of the flexibility of the logistics tray, tray so that the size of the job is formed, and greatly improves the efficiency of cargo handling operation, effectively reducing the cost of operation of the logistics aspects of human material and financial resources.

    In fact, whether insiders or not, ordinary people worth mentioning, no one knows for cargo handling operations have a major principle is the principle of a minimum amount of work. That is, when the movement of goods to minimize the "secondary transportation" and "temporary parking", so to minimize handling times.

    On the one hand because it can reduce the time cost, saving manpower and resources, it is important also to reduce the rate of loss of goods. However, in reality, direct style transport almost difficult to achieve in the real logistics operations, there are always a few unavoidable transit of goods, this time involves the standardization of logistics tray, because only a unified standard tray is available to ensure that the first cargo views on the tray is conveyed to the destination without any movement until changed.

    Pallet specifications related to all aspects of logistics handling - Goods packaging unit size, tipper, container cabinet, shelf sizes and standard dimensions and material handling equipment and the like. Thus, in a sense, there is no uniform standard size pallet, no series tray-based standards related facilities, equipment, devices, tools, etc., you can do partial rationalization of logistics, it is difficult to achieve the overall logistics rationalization. Therefore, a unified standard specifications tray can maximize logistics cost savings.

    Given the importance of Pallet standardization, cattle home that the relevant government departments and relevant departments should speed up the logistics industry to promote green development model Pallet encourage both logistics companies, manufacturing enterprises and other units to pallets ordering, shipping and receiving, and promote the whole logistics and transportation jobs in tray full plate does not fall, do not fall basket. Save social resources, reduce the wear rate of goods, improve logistics and transport efficiency.
