Ton bag, also known as container bag or flexible container, is a large packaging container used for transporting bulk powdery and granular materials. During the use of ton bags, there may be some common problems that, if not handled properly, may affect their effectiveness and safety. The following is a summary of common problems encountered during the use of ton bags:
1. Problems in lifting operations
1. Personnel safety risks:
In lifting operations, if personnel stand below the ton bag, if the sling breaks or the ton bag slips, it will seriously threaten the safety of personnel's lives.
Solution: During lifting, personnel should stay away from the bottom of the ton bag to ensure safe operation.
2. Improper lifting method:
Slant lifting, single-sided lifting, or diagonal pull lifting of ton bags may result in uneven stress on the sling, increasing the risk of sling breakage.
Solution: The lifting hook should be hung at the center of the sling or rope to ensure smooth lifting of the ton bag.
2. Problems in handling and stacking
1. Friction and collision:
Friction or collision between ton bags and other items during transportation may cause damage to the bag body or material leakage.
Solution: Handle with care during transportation to avoid friction or collision with other items.
2. Improper stacking:
Stacking ton bags too high or in an unreasonable manner may cause the bottom ton bags to be compressed, deformed, or even damaged.
Solution: Ton bags should be neatly stacked to avoid excessive stacking, while ensuring that the stacking method complies with safety regulations.
3. Problems in use and storage
1. Overweight use:
Exceeding the load-bearing limit of the ton bag may result in the breakage of the sling or damage to the bag body.
Solution: The load-bearing limit of the ton bag should be strictly followed to avoid overloading.
2. Long term exposure:
Long term exposure of ton bags to outdoor or harsh environments may lead to aging, damage, or material deterioration of the bag body.
Solution: Ton bags should be stored indoors or in a cool place as much as possible to avoid long-term exposure to outdoor or harsh environments. If it needs to be stored outdoors, it should be placed on a shelf and tightly covered with opaque tarpaulin.
3. Dragging and Dragging:
Dragging or dragging ton bags on the ground may cause wear or damage to the bag body.
Solution: Suitable handling tools (such as forklifts, pallets, etc.) should be used to transport ton bags, avoiding dragging or dragging on the ground.
4. Other common questions
1. Aging of straps:
Long term use or improper storage may cause the sling to age or break.
Solution: The condition of the sling should be checked regularly. If aging, wear, or breakage is found, it should be replaced in a timely manner.
2. Material leakage:
If the material inside the ton bag is liquid or fine powder, leakage may occur due to damage to the bag body or inadequate sealing.
Solution: Before use, check the integrity of the bag body and the tightness of the seal to ensure that the material will not leak.
In summary, ton bags may encounter lifting operations, handling and stacking, usage and storage, and other issues during use. To ensure the safe and effective use of ton bags, relevant regulations and precautions should be strictly followed, and regular inspections and maintenance should be carried out.
