1. Reduce damage to steel coils
- During transportation, if the steel coil is laid flat, the contact area between the coil body and the bottom of the vehicle is large, and the friction may damage the entire steel coil. For manufacturers, this is an undesirable situation. Therefore, in order to protect the integrity of the steel coil during transportation, it is a better way to transport the steel coil vertically
2. Limitations of traditional transportation methods
- At present, most owners of vehicles pulling steel coils do not have very good equipment to ensure the safety of flat transportation and the integrity of the steel coils. In order to reduce costs, many truck drivers can only choose to use traditional methods for transportation, that is, to fix the steel coils vertically on the vehicle and pad a large amount of wood at the bottom
3. Some new equipment is not popular
- Now some drivers have begun to use electromagnetic suction cups to fix steel coils and pad some wood at the bottom, which can ensure the integrity of the steel coils and the personal safety of the owners. However, this type of equipment is still a minority, mainly due to cost issues. Due to the high cost and difficulty in widespread promotion, it is still a common way to transport steel coils vertically.
