Pallet Saw System

Pallet Saw System – The Ai4Pallets-driven robotic system for automatic pallet dismantling

The Pallet Saw System from Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS) is designed for the automatic dismantling of used pallets and the recovery of reusable pallet components.
This system combines an industrial robot, a PSS-developed saw unit, and Ai4Pallets – the intelligent software that autonomously identifies and controls every pallet.

Ai4Pallets automatically measures the length, width, and height of each pallet, selects the appropriate cutting program (2-, 3-, 4- or 5-layer), and determines the optimal pickup orientation.
During the process, Ai4Pallets dynamically adjusts the cutting height and parameters to ensure that every pallet – regardless of type or condition – is processed accurately.

The operator only needs to ensure a continuous infeed of pallets and outfeed of sawn material.
The Pallet Saw System works fully autonomously and can be integrated into an existing pallet repair line or pallet sorting line.

Why The Pallet Company and KAT EHF chose PSS

During live demonstrations at PSS, both The Pallet Company and KAT EHF saw how the system:

• Processed various pallet types with different sizes,
• and managed a wide range of pallet constructions,
• fully automatically, in random order, without operator intervention.

Both companies indicated they had not seen a comparable system, neither in Europe nor elsewhere.

It was precisely the combination of:

• random play processing,
• AI4Pallets recognition,
• robot-controlled pallet handling,
• and delivering consistent sawing quality,

that led both companies to choose PSS as their automation partner.

Benefits for Operators

The Pallet Saw System with Ai4Pallets eliminates manual adjustments and increases workplace safety.

• Ai4Pallets measures each pallet before pickup.
• The robot performs Ai4Pallets-guided pallet handling.
• Automatic selection of the correct cutting program.
• Safe distance from moving saw blades – all cutting is robot-controlled.
• Integrated dust extraction with spark arrestor ensures a clean environment.

Thanks to Ai4Pallets automation, a single operator can manage both pallet infeed and sawn wood outfeed efficiently and safely.

Benefits for Companies

For companies, the Pallet Saw System delivers immediate improvements in safety, capacity, and labor efficiency:

• Reduced dependency on skilled operators.
• Consistent cutting quality across all pallet types.
• Modular and easy to integrate into existing lines.
• Suitable for all pallets with dimensions between 800 mm and 1400 mm.

The system can operate as a standalone unit or as part of a complete sorting and repair line.

Ai4Pallets – The Core of Automation

The integration of Ai4Pallets makes the decisive difference:

• Automatically measures length, width, and height of every pallet.
• Selects the correct cutting program for 2-, 3-, 4- or 5-layer pallets.
• Determines the optimal pickup direction for stable handling.
• Continuously adapts cutting parameters based on pallet type and variations.

With this intelligent automation, the Pallet Saw System achieves consistent cutting quality without manual input or visual inspection.

Measurable Results

• Capacity: 45 – 60 pallets per hour
• Automation: Ai4Pallets measures, identifies, and controls the cutting process
• Operator load: Only infeed and outfeed supervision required
• Monitoring: SCADA reporting + PSS App for live system data

The result is a reliable, modular system that efficiently dismantles pallets and reuses valuable wood components within your production process.
