Erico AB: Standard Pallet Sorting Line by PSS for Pallet Sorting and Classification

Erico AB in Sweden has chosen the standard pallet sorting line from Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS). This solution offers an efficient method for sorting and managing pallets, with a processing capacity of up to 550 pallets per hour. With just one sorter and one forklift operator, Erico AB can now ergonomically and reliably sort the most common pallet types, such as Euro pallets, industrial pallets, and pool pallets (LPR, IPP, CHEP).

Efficient Sorting Without Adjustments
The PSS pallet sorting line allows the quick processing of various pallet types without adjustments. This means that Erico AB can sort different pallets directly, without losing time on manual reconfigurations. This includes:

• Euro pallets
• Industrial pallets
• Pool pallets, such as LPR, IPP, and CHEP

With the PSS sorting line, pallets are sorted consistently and efficiently, simplifying the work processes at Erico AB.

Ergonomic and Efficient Operations
The pallet sorting line is designed with a strong focus on **ergonomics**. Sorting takes place at a comfortable working height, reducing physical strain on operators. The forklift operator benefits from automatic infeed and outfeed, resulting in:

• Reduced physical strain for employees.
• Optimized forklift routes for more efficient operations.
• Improved workplace safety with reduced forklift traffic.

Expandable with a Pallet Repair Line
A key advantage for Erico AB is the option to expand the sorting line with a pallet repair line. This system ensures that only pallets requiring repairs are automatically sent to the repair stations. The infeed and outfeed of pallets are also fully automated. This provides:

• Efficient workflows: Repair operators receive only the pallets that need repair.
• Automated infeed and outfeed: Fewer manual forklift movements.
• Resource optimization: Sorters, repair operators, and forklift drivers work together more efficiently.
