Precautions for export packing of mixing tank trucks: Standardize the sea transportation fixing process to prevent transportation collision and damage

1, Vehicle pre-treatment protection: Cover vulnerable parts to avoid foundation wear and tear
Before formal packing, the entire vehicle needs to undergo refined protection treatment. For the core vulnerable parts of the mixer truck, such as the exterior paint surface of the tank body, ladder, discharge port, feeding hopper, hydraulic oil pipe, and electrical control junction box, waterproof and wear-resistant wrapping film and thickened protective cotton are used for sealing. Exposed metal small parts, bolts, and joints should be separately protected to prevent paint peeling, scratches, and accessory wear caused by shipping bumps and friction. At the same time, clean up the excess protruding parts of the vehicle body, package and fix the detachable small parts separately to avoid shaking and bumping the tank body during transportation.
2, Standardized limit fixation: prevent ship shaking, displacement, and collision
The main causes of severe collisions in ocean shipping include strong winds and waves, rough and unstable ship hulls, and vehicle displacement and sliding. After the mixing tank truck is packed, the multi-point fixing process is strictly adopted, and the front and rear wheels are fixed with special solid wood limit blocks and triangular blocks to prevent the wheels from sliding forward and backward or shifting left and right. At the same time, it is equipped with high-strength straps and steel wire ropes for multi-point tightening and fixation, combined with specialized suspension points for the vehicle body to withstand force. It is strictly prohibited to arbitrarily bind weak parts such as tanks and pipelines to prevent deformation of tanks and pipeline breakage caused by excessive tension.
3, Special protection for tank bodies: focus on protecting core operational structures
The mixing tank is the core precision structure of the entire vehicle and protrudes from the body, making it a high-risk area for transportation collisions. Strictly control the spacing between vehicles when packing, reserve a safety buffer distance, and avoid squeezing and collision caused by too close spacing between multiple vehicles packing. Thick anti-collision corner protectors and buffer pads should be installed at the protruding and easily bumped positions such as the edges, discharge ports, and feed ports of the tank body. At the same time, adjust the mixing tank barrel to a horizontal stable state, lock the rotating structure, and prevent structural wear and component loosening caused by the self rotation and shaking of the tank body during sea transportation.
4, Chassis and oil circuit sealing protection: prevent moisture, leakage, and collision
In response to the high humidity and salt spray environment of sea transportation, the chassis hydraulic system, oil tank, and pipeline interfaces should be sealed and protected before packing to prevent seawater moisture from corroding accessories and causing leakage faults. Install simple protective devices at the positions of the protective plates and pipelines that are prone to collision on the chassis to avoid damage from gravel and debris during loading, unloading, and shipping bumps. At the same time, drain excess water and check the sealing of the oil circuit to ensure that the vehicle is dry and undamaged throughout the sea transportation process.
5, Standardize loading and unloading operations: reduce the risk of human injury
The mixer truck has a large body and a special center of gravity, making it prone to collisions during loading and unloading due to improper operation. Professional certified personnel are used throughout the entire process to operate the loading and unloading equipment, smoothly and uniformly entering and exiting the container, boarding, and eliminating dangerous operations such as emergency stop, rapid acceleration, and forced alignment. A dedicated person is responsible for monitoring the entire loading and unloading process, controlling the distance and trajectory of the vehicle in real time, and minimizing the risk of vehicle scratches, chassis collisions, and tank damage caused by human operation.
