What is corrugated plastic, industrial plastic crates? Classification and application

What is plastic wave?

Plastic waves are also known by many different names such as: Plastic trays, rectangular plastic containers, rectangular plastic baskets, square plastic spokes, plastic links, plastic fruit baskets, fish waves, large fish baskets, ... depending on the region and the purpose of using the wave.

Plastic wave is a solid block of plastic molded into a hollow rectangular box, with an open lid. Has handles and comes in a variety of sizes, colors and styles. Plastic corrugated board has a relatively large cargo area and high load capacity. Can hold a lot of goods in one shipment

The material for making plastic waves is usually HDPE, which is durable and safe.

Classification of plastic waves

Classification according to wave structure

The shape and structure of plastic waves include 2 types: open plastic wave (open plastic tray) and sealed wave (closed plastic tray).

Open plastic wave (Open plastic tray, hollow plastic wave): It is a plastic wave with the surface of the edges and the bottom surface in the form of a mesh. Water and moisture can escape through these mesh openings. Open waves often have a wider range of applications than bit waves, and are also cheaper.
Plastic corrugated box (Plastic tray): Also known as rectangular plastic container. This type of wave has a sealed surface, smooth wave bed and quite thick plastic material. Bit wave has the ability to hold water and prevent electrification for electronic components.

Classification by wave size

Plastic waves have quite a variety of different sizes such as: 1T0, 1T5, 1T9, 2T0, 2T2, 2T5, 3T1, 3T9, 4T5, 5T4.

These dimensions are equivalent to the height of the wave: 1T0 ie a 1 meter high wave is equivalent to 10cm. Similar to 1T5 – 1.5 inch – 15cm.

In which the size 5T4 - 5.4 inch - 54cm is the large size, the largest size in all types of plastic waves.

In addition, waves are also classified according to the details attached to the wave such as: Iron loop wave (Fruit wave); Wave 5 wheel; Wave 8 wheels,…

Plastic corrugated structure – plastic barrel

Corrugated plastic is a solid plastic product that does not contain welds. As a result, their structure is extremely durable. It is possible to load a relatively large amount of goods that household products such as baskets, baskets, baskets, etc. on the market cannot do.

The wave structure consists of the frame, bottom, sides and handles.

Wave frame

Corrugated frames are usually reinforced with solid, thick and sturdy plastic bars, especially the 4 corners. Next is the thick plastic bar at the bottom edges, the corrugated edges are closely linked to form a strong, heavy-duty wave frame. Surrounding the wave frame are interlaced load-bearing tendons that you can observe on all wave fronts. Holds the waveform in place, withstands compression, traction, and weight without deformation.

Wave bottom

The wave bottom is flat, still has dense interwoven veins so that the goods do not touch the ground directly. Looking closely at the bottom surface, there are often round plastic buttons. These round buttons are produced when the liquid plastic passes through the pipe to the injection mold. When the plastic pipe is withdrawn from the mold face, it will leave a round plug with the size of the pipe diameter. Because this detail is located on the bottom surface, it will not affect the beauty of the plastic wave.

Wavefronts

Depending on whether the waveform is open or closed, the wavefronts will be meshed or sealed. The wavefronts create the characteristic shape of plastic waves and create the inner wave-bed space. The wavebed is a place to store goods, usually has a fairly large area, and the surface is flat.

Holder

The handle is the most characteristic part of this industrial product line. Handles on plastic waves – plastic trays are related to the users handling and use behavior. There are two types of handles: wave-front grips and fringe handles.

Hand holding the wave front

This type of handle is used by threading the palm of the hand through the handle and lifting the wave. In this way, the user can use more force, so he can carry and carry a large volume. This type of grip usually occurs in waves of large size, containing high volume.

Edge grip

This handle element is located on the outside of the wave front, used by inserting hook fingers into the grip cavity and lifting the wave. This type is mainly used for towing, or light lifting. Because if you need to lift a large volume, it will be quite painful and uncertain. However, the edge handle type helps to maximize the cargo space. Can hold a large amount of goods, even high loads, but still moveable. Usually the edge handle type is designed for open wave types <1T9 and all types of bit waves.

Features of plastic corrugated plastic tray

Waves of the same type can be stacked to fit without spilling, but not in the heart. Because of this feature, corrugated plastic can be used to store goods. Stack goods on top of each other without fear of being damaged or crushed. However, the smaller the wave size, the more stackable it is. Example: Wave 1T0 can overlap about 20 waves without tipping over. But the 5T4 wave can only arrange about 8-10 waves. In addition, waves that are not of the same height and size, but of the same length and width, can also be stacked neatly.

Uses - applications of plastic waves (industrial plastic containers)

Plastic waves, plastic containers are increasingly used in many different fields such as agriculture, fisheries, industry, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, electronics, etc.

Because of the specialized structure of the plastic wave, it is suitable for many different uses. Plastic corrugated - plastic tray is mainly used as a tool to store, store and move goods conveniently.

Plastic waves are processed from 100% virgin HDPE plastic meeting the standards of food safety regulations. Hard plastic material, tough and durable, diverse and bright colors. Insulation, good heat resistance, no corrosion, rust or reaction with water, microorganisms, chemicals, etc. Therefore, plastic waves can operate in a variety of different fields.

In the field of food

Plastic waves are tools for storing and classifying goods, commonly used in harvesting agricultural products, fruits, food processing and seafood. A tool to help transport food safely and conveniently. Also a tool to help display, preserve and store effectively. Heat resistant, work well in cold storage.

In the pharmaceutical field

In the process of packaging and classifying pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Our plastic wave is also an effective support tool that is both safe and meets the necessary standards.

In the field of cosmetics

Plastic material is odorless, chemical resistant and meets food safety standards. Therefore, they are chosen to be used in the production, packaging and transportation of cosmetics. Such as the production of soap, herbal shampoo, lotion, lipstick, etc. Storage of cosmetic ingredients needed in production.

In the field of manufacturing, apparel, electronics, logistics, ...

As a most common product in industrial parks, export processing zones, factories, processing workshops, etc. Plastic waves play a specific role in most production processes. In the production of cashew nuts, open plastic waves are used in the stages of preliminary processing, soaking in water, separating the husks, sorting the nuts and packing and transporting.

In apparel, corrugated plastic is a tool to rotate parts, accessories and products in the factory. In electronics, bit waves contain components, safe storage and transportation, avoid electrification, water penetration. It is a great tool to help classify, coordinate and transport packages, parcels, etc. Along many different areas in life. Proving that plastic waves - plastic trays are a multi-application product and have practical significance in life-production.

Plastic corrugated manufacturing process

Currently, corrugated plastic is produced according to the following 7-step process:

Step 1: Choose virgin plastic beads

From virgin plastic beads, manufacturers can create virgin plastic fibers, thereby making high-quality plastic corrugated products. Currently, the commonly used primary plastic resin is HDPE or PP.

Step 2: Dye primary seeds
To help create the right color, serving the job of classifying goods. The next step, the manufacturer will proceed to pour color into the primary seeds, proceed to dye as desired.

Step 3: Spin the virgin plastic beads
The next step is to rotate the primary plastic beads so that the drawn size is within 50mm. At this step, the manufacturer must ensure that the plastic has the appropriate strength and toughness, meeting production standards.

Step 4: Mix appropriate additives
In order to make the product more durable and increase the bond between the plastic beads, the manufacturer will also add appropriate additives.

Step 5: Add hardener
The added stiffener will give the corrugated plastic extra strength, impact resistance and better service life.

Step 6: Pour into an existing plastic mold
Plastic injection molding is an important step to help products have the desired size, shape and characteristics, meeting the needs of storing and storing different types of goods.

Step 7: Edit bavia
This is the last step but also extremely important. In this step, the manufacturer will proceed to edit the bavia of the plastic wave, thereby meeting the customers requirements.
