Pallet Repair

Overview

Pallet Assembly, Dismantling and Repair with Motoman Robots

This world's transport logistics is based on pallets. While single pallets will be recycled and finally burned, pool pallets are taken back and repaired if damaged. Doing this manually in pallet repair centers means lifting 30kg pallets from staples, using dangerous tiger saws and nailing for the workers. Motoman Robots are shifting this dangerous work to robots and are able to assemble custom pallets automatically, including handling and glueing. The repair works both with open pool pallets and closed pool pallets.
