Förderkasten / Palette Explanation: EZrnst gives "Förderkasten" as the translation for skid. It is usually a pallet, often made of iron, with a box-like enclosure on top. They are often used in factories for transporting smaller parts, and I have seen them used for transporting propane gas jars. The whole skid is lifted ontyo and off the truck for delivery. I do not really like the term "Förderkasten", it sounds too much like lining. "Palette" may be acceptable, but should perhaps be qualified, since pallets usually are made of wood and do not have acage built on top. HTH Ernst, W�rterbuch der industriellen Technik |

Untergestell, Tragrahmen Explanation: I don't think that this hs anything to do with carrying propane bottles as a load (see pictures in reference). This is a base for a large propane tank Reference: http://www.lange-ge.com/lp-dispensers.html |

Anlage/Ladestation Explanation: Maybe, one can squeeze the lexical width of the English (which perhaps cant help?) into some good German like: "Das Aufstellen von Nachladestationen für Propan, das für ...., wird stark nachgefragt." |
