Military packaging is the basic work for the storage, transportation, and supply of military packaging, equipment, and materials, and is an important part of our military's technical support work. Over the years, under the attention and leadership of the state’s packaging management department and the leadership at all levels of the military, through continuous reform and exploration and the hard work and hard work of several generations of packaging workers, all aspects of military packaging have made considerable progress. It is playing an increasingly important role in the preparation for military struggle.

First, equipment packaging and realistic innovation, the overall level continues to improve

Military packaging is one of the important links to ensure high reliability and long life of weaponry and equipment, and it is quickly transformed into fighting power in wartime. Its quality not only affects the maintenance and maintenance of equipment, but also the equipment damage caused by poor packaging. However, the impact on peacetime training, increasing maintenance expenses and maintenance workload, will cause weapons and equipment to fail to be put into normal use during wartime, directly affecting the entire campaign deployment and guaranteeing the victory of the entire campaign.

Large-scale weapons and equipment and high-tech weapons and equipment have different functional properties, precision manufacturing, complex material composition, high prices, and strict technical quality requirements. Therefore, the selected packaging structure and sealed packaging method must comply with their structural characteristics and the physical and chemical characteristics they have, that is, different types of high-tech equipment should choose different packaging technology methods. Since the 1980s, due to the extensive application of new packaging technologies and the extensive use of high-quality packaging materials, the packaging quality of some major equipment and large-scale weapons and equipment and high-tech weapons and equipment has been evident in meeting the protection, transportation and storage of equipment. improve. The packaging research and design of some large-scale backbone weapons and equipment, starting from the actual conditions of the equipment, fully consider the influence of various environments on the equipment, determine the scientific, reasonable and applicable packaging, and adopt the method of container packaging. The packaging box is made of high-strength, composite sealing material. Various snap rings, clamps, rings, and holders are installed inside the box. The equipment and accompanying spare parts and maintenance tools are fixed in the box. The box is filled with a certain amount of inertia. Protective gas can effectively prevent the physical damage of weapons and equipment during storage and transportation, avoid rust, mildew, and failure under the harsh conditions of damp heat, salt spray, etc., greatly facilitating the transportation and storage of weapons and equipment, and satisfying The battle tactical requirements for weapons and equipment under various conditions of use. In addition, the packaging of some equipment uses a wooden box lined with moisture-proof materials, oiled on the exposed surface of the equipment, and gas-phase protection in the box and other composite packaging methods to improve the comprehensive protection performance of equipment and ensure the high reliability of weapons and equipment. The sealed packaging methods such as oil seal packaging, dry air sealing and packaging, and gas phase storage are widely used to extend the storage period of weaponry and equipment, effectively reducing the cost of maintenance, repair and repair of weaponry and equipment, and reducing the work intensity of engineering technicians. And the quality of storage and the availability of equipment have been significantly improved.

One of the reasons for the continuous improvement in the level of weaponry and equipment packaging technology is the emphasis and enhancement on packaging. In particular, since the “Eighth Five-Year Plan”, various packaging researches have been carried out in response to the equipment packaging problems discovered during the 1984 Army General Packing Inspection. And packaging improvement, formulated the corresponding packaging standards and norms, and strengthened the military supervision and inspection of equipment packaging; the second reason is the continuous efforts of the equipment development department and the weapons industry production department. In particular, the arms industry’s production department, in the case of a sluggish business operation and rising raw material prices, has a general understanding of the overall situation, has taken into consideration the overall situation, and has consistently adhered to the purpose of serving the army, and has ensured a continuous improvement in the technical level and quality of military packaging; The third is the development of the packaging industry in China and the improvement of the level of packaging technology. The traction has led to the continuous development of the overall level of military packaging, and the application of some new packaging technologies, new processes, new methods, and new achievements has become the level of weapons and equipment packaging technology. The increase provided very favorable conditions.

Second, scientific and normative equipment packaging, ensure continuous improvement in capabilities

Military equipment is an important material necessary for guaranteeing various types of equipment in peacetime and during wartime for maintenance and repair. Modern warfare equipments have a large amount of input, high damage rate, and equipment dependence on equipment guarantees. They require higher equipment packaging. However, in the past, our military’s equipment has been using traditional packaging methods and has poor adaptability to the environment. It lacks the pertinence to equipment protection and is not convenient for the storage, transportation, supply, management, and use of equipment. It cannot meet the requirements of modern equipment. "Maintenance-based" requirements are not conducive to the modernization of equipment.

In view of the above situation, since the 1990s, many business units have started to research and improve the equipment packaging of the system, and have achieved remarkable results. Such as guns spare parts, tools, radar command instruments, armored equipment and equipment, ship spare parts and other packaging has basically formed a series and standardized. The common characteristics of these equipment packaging are: starting from the characteristics of the equipment itself, it has drawn advanced packaging technologies and methods both at home and abroad, inside and outside the military, adopted a program suitable for equipment packaging, and adopted the most economical and simple equipment, which is simple and easy to implement. Process, with the least possible funding, to achieve maximum protection, thereby improving the equipment's own protection capabilities, reduce the dependence of the equipment on the warehouse. The improved packaging has a more reasonable and scientific quantity in terms of the number of units. The number of unit packages optimized and determined is uniform, applicable and consistent with the law of unit consumption, which greatly reduces the workload of unpacking and secondary packaging, which is very favorable for transportation, Handling, storage, management, distribution, and use of multiple links; in terms of size series, in accordance with the dimensional requirements for transport packaging of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the military standard, full consideration is given to standardization, standardization, economics, and applicability. Requirements, the use of golden section modulus, the establishment of mathematical models, and then according to the size of the various sizes of mutual coverage, delete, optimize, reduce from several hundred series to dozens of series, greatly facilitate the production, transportation and storage, saving The funds have increased the utilization rate of equipment storage and transportation space; in the aspect of packaging protection, the classification level and protection level of materials have been reasonably determined, economical and durable packaging materials have been selected, and the packaging technology that satisfies the requirements has been adopted, so that the equipment has achieved moisture protection better. , anti-rust, anti-aging, anti-mildew, anti-earthquake, anti-mosquito purposes, extended equipment library Lifetime; In terms of overall performance, the problems existing in the original packaging are systematically solved, the protection capabilities of the equipment are enhanced, the requirements for the storage and transportation environment of the equipment are reduced, and the work efficiency of the warehouse for the acceptance, inventory, and distribution of the equipment is improved. Enhance comprehensive security capabilities, with significant military and economic benefits.
