Callewaert Pallets, Efficient pallet sorting and repair with Pallet Sorting Systems
Callewaert Pallets, Efficient pallet sorting and repair with Pallet Sorting Systems
Callewaert Pallets, a renowned name in the pallet industry, has again invested in Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) solutions. After their previous success with a pallet sorting line, they now opted for a combined pallet sorting and repair line, equipped with ten workstations for pallet repair. This strategic investment focuses on increasing efficiency, gaining better insight into the repair process and optimizing forklift movements.
Advanced technology for pallet management
The new sorting and repair line is designed to effectively sort and repair pallets. The process begins with automated sorting, which immediately sorts out reusable pallets in the first four stackers. Pallets in need of repair are transported via an overhead conveyor to the pallet repairers’ workstations. After repair, these pallets are transported via a bottom conveyor to the last eight stackers, where they are further sorted.
Thanks to the integrated waste belt, wood waste is efficiently transported to a central point, contributing to an organized and clean working environment.
Insight and control with SCADA and PSS App
The line is equipped with a SCADA system that generates comprehensive reports, including:
- The number of pallets sorted.
- The number of pallets repaired.
- Individual performance of pallet counters.
- A complete sorting report.
In addition, the PSS App provides live information on the status of the sorting and repair line, so the Callewaert Pallets team always has real-time insight into the progress and performance of the installation.
Forklift efficiency and improved work processes
With this installation Callewaert Pallets achieves a 50% reduction in forklift movements. By separating pallets that are immediately reusable from pallets that need to be repaired, transports are optimized and less manual work is required. This increases the speed and accuracy of the process and relieves the burden on employees.
