For example, think of a Paintbooth, pallet press, Angle saw, Epal nailgun, Pallet stack aligner, Robotic Pallet Dismantler, Band saw.

Paintbooth

Paintbooth – Advanced Solution for the Efficient Coating of Pool Pallets

The Paintbooth from Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) has been specifically developed for the efficient and sustainable coating of pool pallets such as Chep, IPP, and LPR pallets. Thanks to its modular design, the booth can be easily integrated into a sorting or repair line. This allows pallets to be coated directly after repair in a continuous flow – without additional forklift movements. The result: increased safety and a more streamlined logistics process.


New Options Available from 2025 – already integrated at PKF Post

From 2025, the Paintbooth will be available with two advanced options:

  • Air-knife drying – directly after coating, pallets are blown dry with powerful air knives. This speeds up the process and shortens drying times.
  • Automated paint preparation – a system with two dosing pumps prepares paint accurately for 3 to 4 cycles. This ensures consistent quality, prevents clumping, and makes the process more reliable.

Efficient Coating Methods

The Paintbooth uses a low-pressure coating system that requires less maintenance and eliminates the need for air filters. This reduces operating costs and makes the booth practical and reliable in daily use.

Its straightforward design ensures a smooth coating process. Unlike complex systems that demand extensive training, this solution boosts productivity without compromising quality.


Thoughtful Design for Safety and Sustainability

  • Liquid-tight flooring in the booth and beneath the roller conveyor prevents excess paint from entering the work area.
  • Paint recycling: surplus paint is collected, filtered, and reused – minimizing waste and supporting sustainability.
  • Secure platform for paint bins and pump unit prevents leaks and keeps the workspace clean.
  • Direct installation behind stackers reduces forklift movements and increases efficiency.

Easy Maintenance for Consistent Performance

Daily maintenance is especially important when using chalk-based paint. The system makes this simple by switching from paint to water, flushing pipelines and filters automatically. This extends the equipment’s lifespan and prevents downtime.

In addition, walkways inside the booth ensure safe access for maintenance and nozzle replacement – without the risk of soiled clothing or unsafe working conditions.


Key Advantages at a Glance

  • No complex technology such as turntables, drives, or filter boxes
  • No air filters → lower maintenance, reduced costs
  • User-friendly pump system
  • Liquid-tight floor protects the workspace
  • Surplus paint is recycled
  • Easy water-flush cleaning prevents deposits
  • Dedicated platform for paint bins and pump unit ensures safety and order
  • Walkways enable safe maintenance inside the booth

Proven Success with Customers

The Paintbooth has already been successfully installed at Herpen Pallets, Goggins, Foresco, Clark Transport, Pallet Recycling South Wales, and The Pallet Company.


Conclusion: Efficient, Safe, and Future-Oriented

With the advanced Paintbooth, Pallet Sorting Systems provides a solution that makes pallet coating more efficient, safer, and more sustainable. The new options available from 2025 further improve consistency and speed. Less downtime, lower costs, and maximum reliability – this is modern pallet management with PSS.

Corner Saw

Pallet Sorting Systems Introduces the Pallet Corner Saw

In 2015, Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) expanded its product range with the introduction of the Pallet Corner Saw, a solution designed to ensure precise and consistent corner finishing for pallets.

This innovation is specifically engineered to lighten the workload of pallet repair operators while improving efficiency.

A Seamless Addition to the Repair Line

The Pallet Corner Saw is strategically placed behind the pallet repair line, just before the stackers. This ensures that damaged or uneven corners are automatically trimmed before the pallets are stacked. Not only does this enhance the quality of the pallets, but it also makes the process faster and more reliable.

Efficiency and Quality Combined

  • Precise Corner Finishing: The Corner Saw guarantees consistent and clean corners for every pallet.
  • Less Manual Labor: Automation reduces the workload of pallet repair operators, saving time and physical effort.
  • Improved Workflow: The system integrates seamlessly with existing repair lines and stackers, boosting productivity.

 A Future-Ready Solution
With the introduction of the Pallet Corner Saw, Pallet Sorting Systems takes a significant step in improving pallet processing workflows. This innovation not only provides a more efficient method of operation but also enhances the quality and consistency of the final products, contributing to greater customer satisfaction.

 

Mechanical measuring unit

2018: Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) Introduces the Pallet Measuring Unit

An innovative solution for accurately measuring pallets. The Pallet Measuring Unit can be seamlessly integrated into a sorting machine or repair line and is placed before the stackers. This advanced technology provides a method to inspect pallets and automatically direct them to the appropriate stacker based on preset specifications.

Accurate Measurements for Better Sorting
The Pallet Measuring Unit precisely measures pallets for length and width. Based on preset values, it automatically determines to which stacker a pallet is sent, regardless of the sorter’s initial assessment.

Practical Example
A pallet that should measure 120 cm in length but is actually 121.5 cm will be identified by the measuring unit and sent to a different stacker if the preset values dictate that all pallets longer than 121 cm should be stacked separately.

Key Benefits of the Pallet Measuring Unit

  • Inline Integration: The measuring unit can be easily added to existing sorting machines or repair lines, directly before the stackers.
  • Automated Sorting: Measurements determine the stacking location, regardless of previous manual input.
  • Adjustable Parameters: Customers can define specific thresholds for length and width to suit their unique requirements.
  • Efficiency and Consistency: Reduces human errors and improves the quality of the sorting process.

An Innovation for the Future
With the introduction of the Pallet Measuring Unit, Pallet Sorting Systems takes another step forward in developing advanced technologies for the pallet industry. This solution offers businesses greater control and precision in their sorting and repair processes, leading to improved workflow efficiency and enhanced customer satisfaction.

 

EPAL nailgun

2019 Pallet Sorting Systems introduces the EPAL Nailgun

Why the EPAL Nailgun?

  • 1 Epal nailgun for all repaired pallets. (normally every pallet repairer has an Epal Nailgun)
  • Accurate placement: The EPAL nail is automatically placed in the correct position, according to the official guidelines.
  • Easy inspection: The seal can easily be inspected from one side of the pallet stack after stacking, saving time and effort during audits and quality control checks.
  • Consistency: By using the EPAL Nailgun in the repair line, all labels are applied uniformly, which enhances the reliability and professionalism of the repair process.

Efficiency and reliability for certified repairers.

Having the EPAL Nailgun in the line ensures that the Epal nail is not forgotten by a pallet repairer after repair, is always in the stack on the same side, and the pallet repairer needs fewer tools on his workbench.
