* In terms of corrosion resistance, plastic pallets are best, followed by plastic wood pallets, and steel pallets are the worst.
*In terms of moisture resistance, plastic pallets perform exceptionally well;
* In terms of resistance to insect damage, steel pallets are best, followed by plastic pallets.
* In terms of average lifespan, steel pallets and plastic pallets are pretty much on par;
*In terms of pallet weight, paper and wood pallets have certain advantages.
* In terms of carrying capacity, steel pallets perform well; paper pallets are less effective.
*In terms of performance, plastic and steel pallets outperform paper and wood pallets.
* In terms of pallet prices, wooden pallets have an advantage, followed by paper and plastic wood pallets, with steel pallets being the most expensive.
However, in actual use, depending on the different applications, some pallets are difficult to replace by other varieties. For example, when carrying heavy items, steel pallets have their unique advantages. However, overall, plastic, plastic wood composite, and paper pallets are considered to have more promising development prospects, with plastic pallets being the most promising.
Transport Advantage
(1) Utilizing pallet handling can improve working conditions and eliminate heavy physical labor.
(2) The working time is significantly reduced, the delivery time becomes shorter, and the transportation rate of trucks increases; usually, forklift drivers can do the work of ten people, and if the goods are scattered or heavier, it can be said that one person can do the work equivalent to that of twenty people;
(3) Pallet conveying rarely results in damage to the goods. When manual handling is performed, due to fatigue, mistakes, or the goods may fall and become damaged;
(4) Using pallets has a certain amount of cargo, which can prevent numbering errors when shipping and is easy to manage the quantity;
(5) can effectively organize and tidy up the storage area to implement three-dimensional storage;
(6)Cube storage, automatic shelf storage, etc., if there is no pallet, its function cannot be realized;
(7) Factory implementation of unmanned handling must have pallets.
(8)可以制定搬运作业的工艺计划和时间表。作为缺点,托盘本身具有一定的重量和体积,在与货物一起输送时会产生多余的重量和体积空间。但将这个缺点与优点相比要小得多,因此世界先进国家的工厂和集散仓库及流通中心等都必然使用托盘。
