During loading operations in a textile logistics warehouse, bagged goods, due to their soft and easily deformable nature, place higher demands on the smoothness and friction of the conveying equipment. Traditional manual handling or forklift-assisted loading is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also easily causes product damage. To address this pain point, Naili Conveyor designed a loading solution combining a medium-sized ramp machine and a rubber-covered Multi-Wedge Belt Powered Roller Conveyor, achieving smooth and efficient conveying from the warehouse to the truck compartment.
Solution Configuration and Equipment Selection
The core of this solution is to solve the height difference from the ground to the inside of the truck compartment and to ensure that bagged textile goods do not slip or shift during conveying. We selected a medium-sized ramp machine as the lifting platform. Its stable hydraulic lifting system can easily adjust the height to suit the compartment floor of different vehicle models. The top platform of the ramp machine is used to support and secure the Powered Roller Conveyor, forming a movable loading and unloading bridge.
The conveying section uses a 10 m-long rubber-covered Multi-Wedge Belt Powered Roller Conveyor. The reason for choosing rubber-covered rollers is that their surface is coated with a rubber layer, which provides sufficient friction to effectively prevent bagged textile goods from sliding or rotating during conveying. The multi-wedge belt drive runs smoothly and quietly, making it ideal for warehouse operations that require a quiet environment. This combination of equipment can easily extend into the 10 m-long truck compartment, directly extending the conveying end to the stacking point.

Loading Process and Efficiency Improvement
In actual operation, the entire loading process is simplified into three steps and can be completed efficiently by only three workers. One worker at the warehouse exit on the ground places the bagged textiles onto the started roller conveyor. The goods are smoothly lifted by the ramp machine to a height level with the truck bed, and then automatically conveyed into the depth of the compartment via the 10 m-long roller line.
Two workers are stationed inside the truck to handle stacking. Since the conveyor delivers the goods directly in front of them, they do not need to move back and forth to carry them; they only need to stack them neatly in place. This division of labor, of "placing goods on the ground and stacking goods in the truck, " completely changes the inefficient past situation in which workers had to frequently get on and off the truck and walk while carrying heavy loads.
According to feedback from the site, after using this solution, loading efficiency increased by about 60%, workers’ labor intensity was significantly reduced, and, thanks to less manual throwing and dragging, the cargo damage rate also dropped sharply. This equipment is especially suitable for handling soft-packed goods that require careful handling, such as bagged textiles.
Solution Advantages and Application Scenarios
The advantage of this loading solution lies in its high level of flexibility and specificity. The medium ramp conveyor is movable, allowing it to serve multiple loading and unloading positions; the 10-meter-long roller conveyor is enough to cover most truck bed lengths. The friction provided by the rubber-coated rollers is a perfect fit for bagged goods, while the Multi-Wedge Belt drive ensures reliable long-term operation.
This solution is not only suitable for bagged textiles, but also widely applicable to other bagged raw materials or finished products, such as25 kg bagged feed loading and unloading solutiongrain, chemical granules, and more. It represents the mainstream direction of today’s semi-automated loading and unloading: using equipment to handle the heavy horizontal and vertical conveying tasks, while people focus on the stacking process that requires judgment and skill, achieving the optimal human-machine collaboration solution.
