In modern logistics and warehousing systems, iron pipe pallets, as a common cargo carrying tool, need to cooperate efficiently with logistics equipment such as forklifts and stackers to achieve rapid handling, storage and management of goods. Therefore, the compatibility design of iron pipe pallets with these logistics equipment is crucial and directly related to the efficiency and safety of logistics operations.
The size of the iron pipe pallet should match the parameters such as the fork size, lifting height and lane width of the forklift and stacker. The length and width of the pallet should ensure that the fork can be inserted and lifted smoothly, and at the same time cannot exceed the rated load range of the forklift or stacker. Generally speaking, the length of the pallet should be slightly shorter than the length of the fork, and the width should consider the placement and stability of the goods. In addition, the structural design of the pallet should facilitate the entry and exit of the fork. For example, the spacing of the beams at the bottom of the pallet should be reasonable to avoid obstruction of the fork when inserting, and at the same time, ensure that the pallet has sufficient strength to withstand the pressure of the goods and equipment.
The fork mouth is the part where the iron pipe pallet directly contacts the forklift and stacker, and its design is particularly critical. The height of the fork mouth should be suitable for the thickness and insertion angle of the fork. Generally, the height of the fork mouth is more suitable between 80-150 mm, so that the fork can be easily inserted and stably hold up the pallet. The width of the fork mouth should be slightly larger than the width of the fork, usually the width of the fork plus 20-50 mm, to ensure the flexibility of the fork when inserted. At the same time, the internal structure of the fork mouth should be reinforced to prevent deformation or damage during frequent forking, affecting the adaptability and service life.
The material selection and strength design of the iron pipe pallet must meet the operating requirements of logistics equipment. High-strength steel is selected as the material of the iron pipe, which can withstand the impact force and weight of the goods during the handling process of forklifts and stackers. The overall strength of the pallet should be evenly distributed to avoid local weak points, which will cause tilting or deformation during equipment operation. For example, the corners and edges of the pallet should be reinforced to prevent wear or cracking when in contact with logistics equipment, ensuring stable cooperation between the pallet and the equipment.
The surface treatment of the iron pipe pallet can not only improve its anti-corrosion and anti-rust ability, but also have a certain impact on its adaptability to logistics equipment. Smooth surface treatment can reduce the friction between the fork and the pallet, making the fork smoother when inserted and extracted, reducing the wear and energy consumption of the equipment. At the same time, good surface treatment can prevent debris caused by rust or corrosion from affecting the normal operation of the equipment, and ensure good contact and cooperation between the pallet and the logistics equipment.
In order to improve the compatibility and operating efficiency of the iron pipe pallet with logistics equipment, clear markings and positioning devices should be set on the pallet. For example, the center of gravity position, maximum load weight and other information of the goods are marked on the surface of the pallet to facilitate accurate operation by forklift and stacker operators. In addition, positioning holes or positioning blocks can be set at specific positions of the pallet to cooperate with the corresponding devices on the logistics equipment to achieve accurate positioning of the pallet and improve the accuracy and efficiency of cargo handling and storage.
The compatibility design of the iron pipe pallet with logistics equipment such as forklifts and stackers involves many aspects, including size and structure design, fork design, material and strength, surface treatment, and marking and positioning. Only by fully considering the characteristics and operation requirements of logistics equipment in these design points can the iron pipe pallet and logistics equipment achieve efficient and safe cooperation, improve the operating efficiency of the entire logistics warehousing system, reduce operating costs, and ensure the smooth flow and storage of goods.
