Scénario et exigences
At the liquor warehouse unloading from a 4.2-meter truck, the discharge path includes a turning section. The core on-site concern is to keep the goods stable and in contact with the conveying surface during the turn to reduce lateral shift and drop risks.
This unloading uses a skate-wheel conveyor to bridge the transfer between the truck exit and the warehouse drop-off point, allowing goods to continue moving along the conveyor surface after leaving the vehicle instead of repeatedly being set down and moved during the turn.
Comment la solution s'intègre
On site, based on placement positions, the conveyor is aligned from the truck exit to the warehouse drop-off point, first turning the "truck exit—receiving point" path into a continuous channel.
The turning section adopts a "retractable, turnable" layout to cover the unloading path: at locations requiring direction change, the conveyor direction is adjusted to guide the cargo so it stays controlled on the conveying surface through the turn, reducing lateral drift.
Cargo should mainly be flat-bottomed items (such as cartons); the on-site cargo shapes and packaging must match the contact style of roller/skate conveyors to ensure smooth transfer and turning.

Déroulement des opérations et coordination du personnel
During unloading, goods enter the skate-wheel conveyor from the truck exit and continuously move along the conveyor surface to the warehouse drop-off point.
Personnel on the straight section are mainly responsible for pushing, guiding, and controlling the pace to prevent goods from shifting before entering the turn, which would affect the stability of subsequent turning.
Coordination at the turn focuses on monitoring the goods' posture: keeping them continuously in contact with the conveyor surface while turning to minimize drift and drops, making passage through the turn more controllable.

Changes after implementation
After using the skate-wheel conveyor, the unloading chain resembles "continuous transfer": once the goods exit the truck, they move directly along the conveyor surface to the warehouse drop-off point, reducing repeated lifting, carrying, and dropping.
During this turning unloading step, the process is more controllable; goods on the turn are less likely to fall, lowering on-site sorting and rework pressure, achieving the targeted "no drops during turns.".
