The reasons for the damage of corrugated boxes during logistics transportation are complex and diverse, involving multiple aspects such as carton quality, design, transportation conditions and human operation.
Irrational carton design, such as oversized or undersized, will affect its compressive strength and stability. Cartons that are too large are prone to deformation during stacking, while cartons that are too small may cause damage to the internal items due to insufficient space for filling. To prevent this problem, the carton size should be reasonably designed to ensure that it meets the market circulation requirements and effectively protects the internal items.
The thickness of corrugated cardboard is a key factor affecting the compressive strength of the carton. If the thickness of the corrugated cardboard is insufficient, the carton is easily damaged by external force during transportation. To prevent this situation, corrugated cardboard with a thickness that meets the standard should be selected, and the wear of the corrugated rollers should be checked regularly to ensure that the thickness of the cardboard meets the requirements.
The bonding strength of the carton directly determines the stability of its overall structure. Cartons with poor bonding strength are prone to cracking during transportation, causing the internal items to be exposed and damaged. In order to improve the bonding strength of cartons, good quality adhesives should be selected and the carton manufacturing process should be optimized to ensure that the bonding is firm and reliable.
During logistics transportation, cartons are often affected by mechanical vibration, impact and bumps. These external forces may cause the carton to deform, break or damage the internal items. To deal with this problem, measures such as optimizing the carton structure design, adding reinforcement ribs and buffer structures can be taken to improve the impact resistance of the carton. At the same time, shockproof materials and fillers are used to reduce the vibration and impact of goods during transportation.
Changes in environmental humidity and temperature will also affect the physical properties of corrugated boxes. In a high humidity environment, carton materials are prone to absorb moisture and become soft and deformed; in a high temperature environment, carton materials are prone to soften and deform; in a low temperature environment, carton materials are prone to brittle and break. To cope with these effects, moisture-proof coatings or temperature-resistant coatings can be applied to the surface of the carton to improve the moisture-proof and temperature-resistant properties of the carton. At the same time, during storage and transportation, keep the environment dry and ventilated, and control the ambient temperature to avoid the impact of too high or too low on the performance of the carton.
Factors such as long-term stacking, moisture, and pressure may cause cartons to deform, mold, or be damaged. To cope with the impact of the storage environment, the warehouse space should be reasonably planned to avoid long-term pressure on cartons; keep the warehouse dry and ventilated to avoid moisture on cartons; regularly check the status of inventory cartons, and promptly detect and handle damaged cartons.
In the logistics process, human operation is also one of the important factors affecting the physical properties of corrugated boxes. Irregular handling, stacking and other operations may cause damage to cartons or internal items. To cope with the impact of human operation, employee training should be strengthened to improve employees' operating skills and standard awareness; mechanized and automated handling equipment should be used to reduce the impact of human operation on cartons; a strict inspection system should be established to supervise and inspect operations such as handling and stacking.
By reasonably designing carton size, selecting corrugated cardboard with qualified thickness, improving carton bonding strength, optimizing transportation methods, controlling environmental humidity and temperature, reasonably planning the storage environment, and standardizing human operation, the problem of corrugated box damage during logistics transportation can be effectively prevented.
