Dock shelter is a kind of device installed around the door or at the entrance of the passageway for sealing, heat preservation, dustproof, insect-proof, rain-proof, etc. It is commonly used in logistics warehouses, cold storage, loading and unloading platforms and other places.

 

Logistics handling dock shelter have a multifaceted and critical role to play:

sealing and heat preservation

· Temperature control and energy saving: In cold storage, constant temperature warehouse and other logistics places with strict requirements on temperature, high-quality dock shelter can greatly reduce indoor and outdoor air exchange. When loading and unloading goods, the dock shelter closely fits the vehicle compartment, avoiding cold or hot air dissipation, reducing the energy consumption of refrigeration and heating equipment, and helping enterprises to cut operating costs. For example, the cold chain logistics transport fresh products, stable low-temperature environment all rely on the dock shelter to block the outside warm air invasion.

· Moisture-proof and freshness preservation: It stops the outside humid air from entering and prevents the goods in the warehouse from mould, rust and deterioration due to moisture. Like the storage of electronic components, precision machinery warehouse, moisture easily triggered components short circuit, mechanical parts rust, dock shelter can maintain the internal dry environment, extend the shelf life of the goods.

Dust and pest control

· Clean Environment Maintenance: Logistics warehouses have frequent entry and exit of goods on a daily basis, and without effective sealing, dust is very easy to be rolled in along with the airflow. Dock shelter can form a barrier in the loading and unloading process to keep the warehouse clean. For goods with high precision and cleanliness requirements such as optical instruments, semiconductor chips, etc., the product quality can be safeguarded from dust interference.

· Anti-insect and anti-rodent: the tightly sealed dock shelter eliminates the passage of insects, rodents and other harmful organisms into the warehouse, guarding the goods from nibbling and contamination, and reducing the loss of goods, such as grain and textile warehouses, anti-insect and anti-rodent is particularly important.

Safety Protection

· Anti-wind and anti-impact: in the outdoor loading and unloading area, when encountering gusty weather, the dock shelter can buffer the impact of the wind on the door, preventing the door from being blown open by strong winds, flinging, endangering the safety of the site personnel and goods; when the vehicle accidentally collided with the loading and unloading door, the dock shelter can also absorb some of the energy to reduce the impact to protect the door body and the vehicle from serious damage.

· Anti-theft: tightly closed dock shelter make it difficult for lawbreakers to pry the door from the door to steal, play a certain anti-theft role for the safety of warehouse goods plus a line of defence to enhance the security of logistics enterprises warehousing.

Improve work efficiency

· Fast docking: the loading and unloading door seal is designed to fit the contour of the vehicle, so that when the vehicle reverses and stops, the driver can align the loading and unloading ports more quickly, reducing the adjustment time and vehicle waiting time, speeding up the process of loading and unloading of goods and enhancing the speed of logistics turnover.

· Stable environment facilitates operation: The stable internal environment allows operators of forklift trucks, pallet trucks and other logistics equipment to concentrate on efficient operation without having to deal with emergencies frequently, thus indirectly improving the overall efficiency of logistics operations.
