Frame cabinets in special cabinets: solutions for flexible transport
Aug 12,2024
In the field of international freight transportation, special cabinets play a vital role to meet the transportation needs of various special goods. Among them, the frame cabinet, as a kind of special cabinet, with its unique structure and function, provides an efficient and safe mode of transportation for those goods with oversized size, irregular shape or overweight weight.
Frame cabinet, also known as open top cabinet or flat cabinet, its structure and ordinary container has obvious difference. Ordinary containers are usually a closed cuboid space, while the frame cabinet is composed of a bottom frame and a column structure around it. The top is usually not completely closed, and some even have no side panels, showing an open frame structure. The biggest feature of the frame cabinet is its strong adaptability to the goods. For those large machinery and equipment that cannot be loaded into standard containers, long pipes, large steel structural components and other goods, the frame cabinet provides a spacious space.
For example, large construction vehicles, wind turbine blades, long steel beams, etc., these sizes exceed the regular of the goods can be easily placed in the frame cabinet, without excessive disassembly or change of shape of the goods. In terms of loading goods, the frame cabinet has high flexibility. Due to its open structure, the goods can be loaded and unloaded from the top, side or even front and back, which greatly facilitates the operation. Moreover, for some super-high goods, the top of the frame cabinet can be opened without height restrictions. In actual operation, in order to ensure the stability and safe transportation of the goods, various lashing and fixing devices, such as ropes, chains, steel beams, etc., are usually used to firmly fix the goods on the bottom of the frame cabinet and the frame structure.
From the perspective of carrying capacity, the frame cabinet can withstand heavier goods than ordinary containers. This is because its frame structure is specially reinforced and designed to withstand the pressure of overweight cargo. However, when using frame cabinets to transport overweight goods, special attention should be paid to the distribution and balance of the center of gravity of the goods to prevent rollover or instability during transportation. In international shipping, the choice of frame container transport requires careful planning and preparation. First of all, it is necessary to accurately measure the size, weight and shape of the goods to determine the appropriate frame cabinet type and size.
At the same time, it is also necessary to consider factors such as bridge height limit and road width limit on the transportation route to ensure that the frame cabinet can pass smoothly. In terms of customs declaration and document processing, detailed and accurate cargo information is also required in order to successfully pass customs inspection. As an example, suppose a factory needs to ship a large chemical plant overseas. This set of equipment is not only bulky, but also overweight. Ordinary containers simply cannot accommodate. At this time, select the appropriate size of the frame cabinet, the equipment through the crane from the top, and then use professional lashing equipment to fix, you can safely and efficiently transport the equipment to the destination. In addition, the frame cabinet also has obvious advantages when transporting some irregularly shaped goods.
For example, some large-scale sculptures or special-shaped building components cannot adapt to the regular space of standard containers, and the frame cabinet can be flexibly adjusted and fixed according to the shape of the goods.
In short, as an important form of special cabinets, frame cabinets provide a reliable transportation solution for goods of special size and weight. Its emergence has greatly expanded the capacity and scope of international freight transportation, enabling all kinds of large, overweight and irregular goods to be transported safely and efficiently on a global scale, and promoting the development of international trade and industrial production.
