New product for general cargo handling: GWS® Flat 3000The innovative large pallet (GWS® Flat 3000) with different load securing options to optimize material handling.Goods are now delivered from a central warehouse via intermediate storage to the end consumer. The time factor plays an important role for the customer / end user.For the forwarder, the time factor is determined by the routes, which cannot be changed, and by the turnaround times.The arriving truck has to be unloaded in the handling hall or in the interim storage facility, a large number of individual Euro pallets.The load is then reassembled and the pallets are loaded individually onto the truck that is to be transported onward.This costs time and manpower!In order to save time and personnel and thus costs when handling materials, we have developed a new type of large pallet.This large pallet can be manufactured in different sizes so that it can be used for material transport both on a truck and in a containerThe current maximum size is 3.600 x 2.400 mm. Up to 9 Euro pallets with a maximum total weight of 3000 kg can be pre-stowed, secured and transported on it.The GWS® Flat 3000 has different load securing nets and lashing systems that are new and very easy and quick to use, which are simply hooked into the lashing points of the flat frame. Attached there, they neither disturb the loading nor the unloading process. So they don't have to be taken off or put back on again and again.With the nets, the load can be very easily secured from below with a maximum of 2 people, but possibly also alone. With the newly developed and supplied quick-release straps, the nets are tightened / lashed in such a way that they encompass the cargo stowed on the Flat and thus form a loading unit.The load is thus secured before loading and thus saves the driver this time-consuming activity. With the load securing nets and the firmly bonded anti-slip covering on the pallet and on the underside of the flat, no further load securing is required in the case of a form fit.Using a switch on the flat frame, the rollers on one side of the pallet can be extended using a battery-operated hydraulic system.The GWS® Flat 3000 can then be moved very easily in the transhipment hall with the help of the maneuvering equipment that belongs to the Flat and an industrial truck such as a forklift, electric ant or pallet truck.It can be loaded in this way via a loading ramp or onto the truck with a larger forklift.The advantages of the new large pallet GWS® Flat 3000 at a glance:Up to 9 pallets with a maximum total weight of 3000 kg can be pre-stowed and secured on the GWS Flat 3000.The 9 Euro pallets can be loaded or unloaded in one operation. This means that when the transport vehicle arrives, only 2 or 3 large panels, for example, have to be moved instead of 18 or 27 individual Euro pallets. This shortens the truck's waiting time at the transshipment point.The load is already secured on the large pallet before it is loaded.Further securing on the truck is no longer necessary with a form fit.This saves time and personnel!Videos:Lifting and loweringLoadingPrices on request to info@gws-schlobohm.de
