- Final inspection and documentation
Compliance: Meets ISO 9227 (Corrosion Tests in Artificial Atmospheres) and DIN 50017 (Climate Test with Saturated Water Vapor).
5. Recommendations
| Use Case | Recommended Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Operational trucks, fast deployment | RO-RO | Minimal handling, rapid port exit, lower damage risk |
| Non-operational or reconditioned units | Flat Rack | Full visibility, secure lashing, compatible with oversized dimensions |
| Component shipments (CKD/SKD) | Not Applicable | Use 40’ HC containers instead |
| High-corrosion risk routes (tropical, long-haul) | Wax Spray + Flat Rack | Maximize protection during extended exposure |
6. Conclusion
For the export of W900 dump trucks from China, RO-RO shipping offers the optimal balance of cost, speed, and handling efficiency for operational units. Flat Rack containers are preferred for non-operational or high-value configurations requiring maximum security and corrosion protection. Bulk cargo is not recommended due to elevated damage and moisture risks.
