Pallet sorting and repair line at Smart Retur Sweden: Innovation with PalletAI
Following the successful implementation of an advanced pallet sorting and repair line by Smart Retur Norway, where the feed was doubled and adapted to automatic de-stacking with an integrated PalletAI system, Smart Retur Sweden has also chosen an innovative solution from Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS). This new line combines fully automatic de-stacking and sorting with the proven efficiency of the previously delivered machine in Denmark.
Advanced technology and efficient process
1. Automatic destacking with PalletAI:
Unsorted pallets are automatically unstacked and inspected by the PalletAI system. This replaces the need for a sorter, making the process faster and more efficient. PalletAI recognizes and sorts pallets by type, quality and specifications.
2. Sorting and recovery:
As in Denmark, good pallets are automatically sorted into three categories: 1st choice, 2nd choice and overflow for repair. The repair pallets are supplied to the pallet repairers via an overhead conveyor.
3. Repair process:
The pallet repairers perform repairs at the specially equipped workstations. After repair, the pallets are conveyed via the bottom lane to a nail press, for additional reinforcement, and then to a stacker of choice.
4. Efficient transport:
With the combination of automatic destacking, sorting and optimized workflows, only one forklift driver is needed to manage the supply and removal of pallets.
Smart monitoring and productivity
SCADA system:
The integrated SCADA system provides daily reports on line performance, including sorting and repair by operator. This provides valuable insights and makes it easy to optimize processes.
Pallet Sorting Systems App:
Through the PSS App, managers in Sweden can monitor the status of the line live, similar to the functionality already successfully used in Norway and Denmark.
Benefits for Smart Retur Sweden
1. Fully automated destacking:
The addition of PalletAI eliminates the need for a sorter and increases the speed and accuracy of the sorting process.
2. High efficiency:
Due to the automatic infeed and outfeed system, pallet handlers operate up to 35% more efficiently, resulting in cost savings and higher output.
3. Modular design:
As in Denmark and Norway, the line has a modular design, making future expansions or modifications easy to implement.
4. Seamless integration:
The new line is based on the successful setup in Denmark, complemented by advanced technology such as PalletAI.
