Logoservice Max Invests in a PSS Pallet Sorting Line

Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) will soon deliver a new pallet sorting line to Logoservice Max Sp. z o.o. in Poland. The system will be specifically used for quality inspection, sorting and preparing Euro pallets for repair. With this investment, Logoservice Max aims to achieve greater efficiency, consistent sorting quality and optimized operational processes.

The pallet sorting line is designed to handle both Euro pallets and various block pallet types without requiring mechanical adjustments.

Pallet Sorting Line with Four Automatic Stackers

The new sorting line is equipped with four automatic pallet stackers, allowing pallets to be efficiently separated according to quality grade and pallet type. During the sorting process, a single operator inspects each pallet for its type, quality and possible damage. The system then automatically transports the pallet to the appropriate stacking position.

The sorting line separates pallets into four categories:

• Euro Pallets – Grade 1: High-quality pallets ready for immediate reuse.
• Euro Pallets – Grade 2: Reusable pallets showing minor signs of wear.
• Euro Pallets – Grade 3: Pallets with more visible signs of wear that remain suitable for use.
• Repair and Non-Standard Pallets: Damaged pallets requiring repair, as well as pallets of different types.

This automated separation creates clearly defined quality streams. Pallets suitable for immediate reuse can return directly to the market, while pallets requiring repair are efficiently directed to the repair department.

Sorting and Repairing in One Efficient Process

The new installation forms an important part of an integrated pallet sorting and repair process.

Pallets requiring repair are automatically collected in smaller stacks at one of the four stacking positions. A forklift then transports these pallets to the repair department.

After repair, the pallets are processed through the same sorting line again. During this second inspection, the operator checks not only whether the repair has been completed correctly but also determines the final quality grade.

Approximately 65% of incoming pallets can return directly to the market after the initial sorting process. The remaining approximately 35% require repair and are subsequently sorted and inspected again to determine their final quality classification.

With just one operator responsible for the entire sorting process, Logoservice Max benefits from consistent and reliable quality assessments. At the same time, operations become more transparent, providing greater control over the quality of outgoing pallet flows.

Higher Capacity and Significantly Fewer Manual Pallet Movements

With the new pallet sorting line, Logoservice Max significantly reduces the amount of manual handling required during sorting and stacking. Pallets are automatically transported to their designated positions and stacked into organized piles.

The key advantages include:

• High sorting capacity thanks to a continuous and efficient pallet flow.
• Only one operator required for pallet inspection and sorting.
• Four automatic pallet stackers for different quality grades and pallet types.
• Up to 65% fewer manual pallet movements through automated transport and stacking.
• Efficient integration of the repair process with renewed quality inspection after repair.
• Consistent sorting quality through centralized quality assessment.
• Increased capacity and improved working conditions thanks to ergonomic processes and reduced forklift movements.

Already the Fifth PSS Machine Delivered to Poland

With the delivery to Logoservice Max Sp. z o.o., Pallet Sorting Systems reaches another important milestone: its fifth machine delivery to Poland.

This demonstrates the growing demand for efficient and reliable automation solutions within the Polish pallet industry.

Pallet Sorting Systems appreciates the trust placed in PSS by Logoservice Max and looks forward to a successful partnership.
