Material handling equipment

Material handling equipment refers to the machinery used for moving, lifting, loading and unloading and transporting materials or goods in short distance. Loading and unloading equipment is the basis to realize the mechanization of loading and unloading operations, and is an important mechanical equipment in logistics equipment. It can not only be used to complete the loading and unloading of ships and vehicles, but also be used to complete the stacking, unstacking, transportation of goods in the warehouse and the lifting, transportation and handling of goods in the cabin, vehicle and warehouse.

In order to successfully complete the handling task, the handling equipment must meet the requirements of handling operations. Loading and unloading operation requires that the loading and unloading equipment has simple and firm structure, stable operation, low cost, easy maintenance, flexible and convenient operation, safety and reliability, and can maximize its working capacity. The mechanical performance and operation efficiency of handling have a great impact on the operation efficiency of the entire logistics system.

Its main work characteristics are as follows:

1. Strong adaptability

As the handling operation is greatly affected by the variety of goods, operation time, operation environment and other factors, and the handling activities have their own characteristics, it requires that the handling equipment have strong adaptability and can work normally in various environments.

2. Strong working ability

The handling equipment has large lifting capacity, wide lifting range, high production efficiency and strong handling capacity.

3. Poor mobility

Most of the loading and unloading handling equipment complete the loading and unloading task in the facility, and only individual loading and unloading handling equipment can operate outside the facility.

The functions of handling equipment mainly include:

1. Improve loading and unloading efficiency, save labor, reduce labor intensity of loading and unloading workers, and improve labor conditions.

2. Shorten operation time, accelerate vehicle turnover and speed up the delivery of goods.

3. Improve the loading and unloading quality to ensure the integrity and transportation safety of goods. In particular, the loading and unloading of bulky and heavy goods is difficult to be completed by manpower; On the other hand, the loading and unloading quality can not be guaranteed, and cargo damage or partial loading may easily occur, even endangering the driving safety. This can be avoided by mechanical operation.

4. Reduce the cost of handling operations. The application of handling equipment is bound to improve the efficiency of handling operations, and the improvement of efficiency will reduce the operating costs allocated to each ton of goods, thus reducing the operating costs.

5. Make full use of cargo space, accelerate the turnover of cargo space, and reduce the area of cargo stacking site. Mechanical operation is adopted. Because the stacking can reach a certain height, the loading and unloading speed is accelerated, the cargo space is emptied in time, and the site area is reduced.
