We all use trucks and other powerful
machines when we are shifting a house or an office. As trucks have a
larger capacity to contain goods and also carry heavy loads, the
industry is growing bigger with the increase in population. As most of
the Americans do not own their own homes and live in rented houses, they
require moving from one place to another often. Hence they call in the
movers who provide logistics for the moving to proceed as planned.
Home
furniture is very highly sensitive to dust and other climatic effects.
The wooden furniture can be easily damaged by the sun’s rays, rain and
also the dust which is on a high level on the streets. To protect the
furniture from these issues and to also avoid things falling from it
during the journey, trucks with closed cabins are used. The cabins are
high and long too according to the state laws, and a hatch cover is
present to be closed and seal the inside completely.
Since these
trucks are used widely and are rarely seen idle in the company’s parking
lots, they are bound to be damaged very often. As the goods which are
mostly bulky keep bumping the body during the loading and unloading
process, the body of the tuck receives a lot of damage. This creates
minute gaps and decreases the tightness of the hatch covers which
results in the goods to be damaged by the weather during the journey. To
manage the leaks that occur and to provide safety to the goods of their
customers (as a part of the company’s safety policy), the
tightness of hatch with ultrasound is checked on a fixed schedule.
The
ultrasonic test provides the required knowledge to the staff about the
health condition of the truck’s body and the hatch covers. In case the
body reveals a lot of leaks that can pose a threat to the customer’s
goods, the truck is sent for repairs. Here the leaks are treated
accordingly and in case the body has gathered rust due to a prolonged
exposure, the piece that is rusted is removed and a new piece is
wielded.
As soon as the repair works are completed, a final
hatch cover ultrasonic tightness testing
is conducted to make sure that the leaks have been removed 100%. When
the truck passes the final test, it is put back to work and the
customers enjoy a damage free moving to a new house.
