PC luggage continues to tackle challenges, reshaping new standards for lightweight travel equipment


After achieving breakthrough results in wear-resistant and scratch resistant technology, Guangdong Binhao Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Binhao Technology"), a manufacturer of PC plastic travel cases and a national high-tech enterprise, has once again spread good news in the field of lightweight. Based on 30 years of experience in luggage manufacturing and core technology accumulation, the company has successfully developed an ultra light PC material suitcase with a weight of less than 1.8KG through deep modification of PC material, innovative structural design, and intelligent process optimization. While achieving ultimate lightweight, it maintains the unique core advantages of PC material such as impact resistance and durability, bringing a new travel experience of "light as nothing but solid as a rock" to global consumers.


As one of the core requirements for travel equipment, lightweighting has always been a research and development hotspot and technical difficulty in the luggage industry. PC material has become the preferred material for lightweight hard boxes due to its good toughness, light weight, and impact resistance. However, traditional PC suitcases (20 inch suitcases) weigh mostly between 2.3-2.8KG, which still brings a carrying burden to consumers, especially in line with the strict weight limit requirements of airlines for suitcases. Binhao Technology has precise insights into market pain points, with the research and development goal of "ultimate lightweight+uncompromising durability". A special technical team has been formed to tackle the challenges, ultimately achieving breakthrough results below 1.8KG, reducing weight by more than 17% compared to the industry average, and breaking the record for lightweight PC material suitcases.


This lightweight breakthrough is attributed to the dual empowerment of "material innovation+structural optimization". On the material side, Binhao Technology has collaborated with industry university research cooperation units Sun Yat sen University and Fujian Normal University's New Materials Research and Development Center to conduct in-depth modification research on PC resin. By introducing nanoscale reinforcing agents and environmentally friendly toughening agents, the density of PC substrate can be reduced by 12% without reducing the impact strength of the material, while retaining its core characteristics of resistance to compression and cracking. Through authoritative testing, this ultra lightweight PC box can withstand drop testing without damage, and its compressive strength meets industry standards, perfectly solving the industry contradiction of "lightweight and durability cannot be achieved at the same time".


In terms of structural design, Binhao Technology adopts the concept of "subtractive design+precise weight reduction" to achieve all-round lightweight upgrading. The box adopts an ultra-thin PC panel formed by integrated hot pressing, with a thickness reduced by 0.3mm compared to traditional products. At the same time, the layout of the box reinforcement is optimized through finite element analysis technology, and support is strengthened in key stress areas, while material consumption is reduced in non stress areas; Innovatively adopting aviation grade lightweight aluminum alloy pull rods and high elasticity silent universal wheels, the overall weight is reduced by 200g compared to traditional accessories; the accessories inside the box are made of environmentally friendly lightweight polyester fabric and ultra-thin reinforced lining, further "slimming" while ensuring practicality, ultimately achieving an overall weight control of less than 1.8KG for a 20 inch chassis.


Strong production and manufacturing capabilities provide a solid guarantee for the implementation of lightweight achievements. The full process intelligent production line introduced by Binhao Technology at a huge cost can achieve precise control from PC modified material processing to box forming, controlling the material loss rate within 3%, ensuring the process accuracy of ultra light boxes and achieving large-scale production. At present, this series of ultra light PC luggage has passed ISO quality system certification and multiple global travel equipment standard tests. Its lightweight indicators, durability, and environmental friendliness have all reached the international leading level.


The core demand of consumers for travel is our research and development direction, "said the person in charge of Binhao Technology. The company has always been committed to providing luggage solutions for global brands, and the launch of this ultra light PC luggage is a precise response to the dual needs of" lightweight+durability ". Relying on a cumulative reserve of over 100 patented technologies, the company will continue to deepen its innovation in the application of PC materials. In the future, it will also explore the integration of environmentally friendly materials such as bamboo fiber composites and modified recycled plastics with lightweight technology. While further reducing product weight, the company will enhance its environmental attributes and promote the upgrading of the luggage industry towards a "lighter, tougher, and more environmentally friendly" direction.


At the 138th Canton Fair, this series of ultra light PC suitcases immediately attracted the attention of global buyers and became a highlight product showcasing the technological strength of "Made in China". From wear-resistant and scratch resistant to ultimate lightweight, Binhao Technology continuously innovates and refreshes the standards of the PC luggage industry, helping China's luggage industry win greater voice in the international market.
