Challenge

The company J.A Plastindustri A/S handles over 100 EUR pallets every week, which was a hard and time-consuming burden for their employees. Therefore, they saw the opportunities in acquiring an automation solution for their production that could meet their needs.

Solution

The company invested in the first-produced PALOMAT® in 1992 and has since invested in newer models. The choice fell on PALOMAT® as the production manager was familiar with the PALOMAT® pallet magazine from a previous workplace.

Benefit

The PALOMAT® pallet magazine has eliminated the heavy manual pallet handling and provided more order in the packaging area. The solution has improved the working environment and given the company happier employees who can now handle empty pallets quickly and easily.

“After our investment in PALOMAT®, the manual handling of empty euro-pallets is now completely eliminated. With PALOMAT®, you can handle pallets without having to touch them with your hands.”

Says Jan Lynge Nielsen, Production Manager at J.A. Plastindustri A/S.

At J.A. Plastindustri they handle 100 EUR-pallets every week. The PALOMAT® is placed in the packing room close to the two packing belts, from which packing into boxes goes on. One empty pallet is fetched in the PALOMAT® by a pallet hand pallet truck and is placed next to the packing belt. The boxes from the packing belt are stacked on the pallet, and when the pallet is full, it is moved to distribution. Another pallet is fetched from the PALOMAT®, and the flow is repeated. When the PALOMAT® is empty, it is stacked with pallets from stock.

Jan Lynge Nielsen adds:

“I knew about the pallet magazine PALOMAT® from a previous workplace. We invested in the first produced PALOMAT® in 1993. Since then I have had good experience with the pallet magazine and see it as a good tool in the daily work with pallet handling.”
