Ire Wel Pallets Sorting and repairing pallets efficiently and effectively.
Ire Wel Pallets, a leading company in the pallet industry, invested in an innovative pallet sorting and repair line from Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) in 2021. With a unique U-shaped setup, this installation is designed to improve both efficiency and safety in the pallet management process. This setup provides an advanced solution for pallet sorting and repair with minimal forklift movements and maximum productivity.
The U-shaped setup chosen for efficiency and safety
The U-shaped configuration of the sorting and repair line at Ire Wel Pallets was strategically designed to minimize forklift movements within the building. The supply of pallets to be repaired takes place outside, while the eight stackers for finished pallets are also located outside under a canopy. This layout provides:
- Safety: Less forklift traffic inside the building reduces the risk of accidents and promotes a safe working environment.
- Efficiency: A streamlined workflow ensures that pallets are processed quickly without unnecessary movements.
Flexible for various pallet sizes
The PSS facility at Ire Wel Pallets is capable of sorting and repairing the most common pallet sizes, including Europallets and other industry standards. With one sorter and six pallet repair workstations, pallets can be sorted and repaired efficiently, resulting in increased productivity and optimal resource utilization.
Clean and safe workstations
One of the features of this installation is the integrated waste belt. Wood residue generated during the repair process is automatically disposed of to a large container outside the building. This system keeps the workstations clean and free of obstacles, significantly improving the safety and efficiency of the pallet recovery workers.
Technology for insight and control
The pallet sorting and repair line is equipped with advanced technologies, including:
- SCADA system: This system provides comprehensive reporting, including the number of pallets sorted and repaired, performance per workstation and a summary of waste disposal.
- PSS App: Through the app, users can access real-time data and insights on plant performance. This makes it possible to monitor and optimize processes no matter where one is located.
These technology tools ensure that Ire Wel Pallets has full control over their pallet management processes and can make quick adjustments as needed.
Fewer forklift movements: a step towards efficiency
By supplying and removing pallets outside, forklift movements inside the building are minimized. This not only increases safety, but also reduces operational costs and improves pallet flow. This efficient operation highlights the innovative nature of the PSS installation at Ire Wel Pallets.
