Use moisture-proof materials (such as moisture-proof film, desiccant) to provide additional protection for goods susceptible to dampness.
Shock and collision resistance
The framework cabinet is in transit, and the goods may undergo multiple loading and unloading and transportation processes. The packaging must have shockproof and collision-resistant functions to reduce vibrations and collisions during transportation.

Packaging: Use sturdy wooden or iron boxes to ensure the box structure is solid and can withstand pressure and impact during transportation.
Internal Fixation: Use wooden frames, wooden pallets, or metal stands to secure the equipment inside the box, ensuring that it does not move during transportation.
Shockproof material: Fill the gap between the equipment and the packaging box with cushioning materials such as foam, bubble wrap, etc., to reduce vibrations during transportation.
Heavy Equipment:
Base Design: Design a dedicated base or bracket for heavy equipment to ensure stability and reliability during transportation.
Fixtures: Use steel cables, nylon straps, or metal brackets to securely fix the equipment inside the frame cabinet to prevent sliding or overturning during transportation.
Anti-vibration measures: Use anti-vibration pads or rubber pads between the base and the equipment to reduce the impact of vibrations on the equipment.
Extra-large size devices:
Open top or frame: Extra large equipment is usually transported in open top or frame containers, packaging must ensure that the equipment can be safely loaded, unloaded and transported.
Windproof Fixation: When transporting in an open top container, use canvas or windproof materials to cover the equipment and secure it firmly with ropes to prevent the impact of sea winds.
Special Mounting: Design special mounts and fixing devices for ultra-wide and ultra-high equipment to ensure stability and reliability during transportation.
Electronic Equipment:
Anti-static materials: Use anti-static packaging materials to wrap electronic devices, preventing static electricity from damaging the equipment.
Waterproof and moisture-proof: Treat electronic devices with waterproof and moisture-proof measures, wrapping them in moisture-proof bags or film.
Internal Fixation: Use sponge or foam material to fill the interior of the packaging box, ensuring the stability of the equipment during transportation.
