The modern logistics loading and unloading system is suitable for the production and warehousing logistics environment with frequent vehicle traffic and loading and unloading of goods. The design of the loading and unloading system is an important part of the whole warehouse process design, mainly including loading and unloading platforms, industrial sliding doors, door seals and covers and related auxiliary equipment and control systems. Reasonable selection and coordinated use of these equipment determines the efficiency of the entire loading and unloading process, while ensuring maximum safety in the operation, reducing the occurrence of accidents in the process of loading and unloading goods.
Through proper planning and system configuration of the loading and unloading system, it will certainly:
Reduced use of loading and unloading operators and forklift trucks reduces operating costs;
Significantly reduces vehicle loading and unloading and waiting time, and improves work efficiency up to 50% or more;
Significantly improves the safety of staff and goods;
Overall improvement of corporate image
In order to plan and configure your logistics loading and unloading area more rationally, you need to consider the following issues when planning:
Selection of the location of the platform loading and unloading area, the direction of traffic flow in the plant and the design of the peripheral area of the platform;
How to organise the way your loading bay is laid out on a floor plan;
How to determine the number of loading platforms based on the space efficiency of your loading area and the safety of vehicle access;
How to determine the height, width and length of the platform;
How to select the length, width, capacity, power system, and environmental suitability of the loading platform;
Whether to choose a door cover or a door seal for better sealing, the form and specific specifications chosen;
How to design the dimensions of door openings in loading and unloading areas, and the selection and configuration of unloading bay doors;
How to configure auxiliary accessories such as lorry lockers, cargo lights, reversing rails, crash rubber, red and green warning lights, etc. to make the loading and unloading area safer;
How to calculate the ROI of your logistics loading area and make your investment a source of profit.
