Pallet Quality Inspection

Keep your process moving forward with Automating Your pallet Quality inspection

Our pallet inspection solution, the PALLETAI, is a smart hack for logistics success. The PALLETAI inspects the pallet to secure the pallet quality by detecting defects that not are beneficial for your production or logistics chain. The PALLETAI enables you to focus on uptime, production, efficiency, logistics, and employee safety. It helps you avoid space waste, load imbalance, stop in production, and material loss and can be used for both wooden and plastic pallets as well as being applied to nearly all pallet configurations.

The importance of high-quality pallets

Using pallets of the right quality is crucial when it comes to automatization with a high and stable level of productivity. With the PALLETAI you can make sure not to allow defective pallets to enter your retail, production line or warehouse, and logistics center.

PALLETAI is adaptable to your existing production line, enables scalable production, and assures high-speed inspection, rejection and sorting based on defect types such as protruding nails, cracks in boards & blocks, missing, broken or dislocated boards or blocks, blocked tunnels, logo detection and verification (including iPAL QR codes, etc.), paper and plastic residue and sorting based on appearance.

As automation and automated processes increase, pallet quality plays a crucial role in securing the productivity of pallet conveyance, automated storage, retrieval systems or palletizing.

Simply put, with the PALLETAI, you can make more money by

Reduce claims from clients due to inconsistent quality
Reduce damaged goods
Increase quality assurance
Increase sorting activity productivity
Reduce staff costs spent on pallet inspection
Increase the safety of your employees and warehouse

PALLETAI advantages

Artificial Intelligence functions as a human-like inspector, thoroughly examining the pallet
AI finds cracks and holes but also segments pallet parts with great accuracy for measurement and control
AI similarly is perfect for detecting mold or discoloration through pattern recognition
PALLETAI runs no less than 26 Neural Networks
AI is better at finding visual defects which up until now have required human interaction – contamination, fungi, etc.
2D cameras are combined to achieve maximum effect
Both color and black-and-white images acquired
Lasers and tailored illumination
Filters on cameras guarantee that only what is in focus will be captured, creating a robust system to contend with changing environments (sun, factory light)
Precise triggering and instant analysis to deliver results

Why settle for Poor quality pallets?

No logistics process is the same, each one requires pallet quality that caters to the specific needs. However, we can all agree that the logistics challenges can be reduced with good pallet quality, which improves warehouse efficiency. With IVISYS PALLETAI you can tailor the acceptance and rejection criteria for both empty and loaded pallets, wooden and plastic pallets, making sure it addresses your specific needs. So, why should you settle for defective pallets when there is a solution with modern inventory techniques that can give you peace of mind and solve your logistics challenges?

Using pallets of the right quality is crucial when it comes to automatization. With the right pallet handling, you can easily improve the warehouse flow and improve logistics efficiency. With an automated pallet inspection system, you can make sure not to allow defective pallets to enter your automated material handling systems.

That’s where we come in, i.e., the IVISYS PALLETAI, a state-of-the-art pallet inspection solution that helps you manage your pallets regardless of type, brand or quality.

Real-time data

The PALLETAI uses the NVIDIA Tesla GPUs, the engines of the modern HPC data center. They deliver a breakthrough performance with fewer servers. The results and reports of the data are based on faster insights and dramatically reduced costs due to decreased downtime by having accurate information in time.

The IVISYS pallet inspection solution, the PALLETAI, can give you information and help you sense variations in small patterns. Our high-resolution images are fed to our deep neural networks, taking advantage of the latest Nvidia Data Center GPUs that deliver rapid computation and a huge amount of memory.

And it’s all happening IRL. When inspecting the pallets in the PALLETAI you will receive real time data, all based on your specific needs. The recipe you get will tell you if the pallet passed or failed if it’s good to go or needs to be taken out of the production line or logistics flow.

The PALLETAI facilitates real-time data monitoring and remote supervision
The interface adapts to different pallet types and is accessible remotely for supervision
All data is transferred to the IVISYS Cloud ready for analysis
PALLETAI delivers pre configured data with standard measurements commonly used for sorting, all based on your specific needs
Tolerances can easily be adapted to your changed production and logistics needs

It’s all about uptime

Yes, we know, it’s all about uptime, productivity, efficiency, and increased ROI. To assure this IVISYS offers remote performance monitoring with real-time data and preventive maintenance so you can receive early warnings, ensuring that your operation runs properly.
