Two-Sided Inspection
Pallet inspection is a two-sided process ... that's why
we have stayed with our original design concept ...we call
it the "domino" principle.
On all our systems, pallets are seen at the top and bottom
by the operator and are automatically turned over again by the
Pallet Turner. Its fast, reliable, and effective. |
SMETCO Sorting Systems feature the ability to quickly and
effortlessly inspect both sides of each pallet. |

Control Panel
Reliable, industry-tested Allen Bradley Programmable Logic
Controllers are at the heart of each SMETCO Sorting System.
An Ethernet-based HMI tracks every pallet and presents the
data in industry standard forms: web pages, Excel-compatible .csv
files and an OPC server are standard on every system.
Track your profitability and productivity from anywhere in the
world without expensive proprietary software. SMETCO has a dedicated team of field service technicians and a
comprehensive spare parts inventory to assist with any
maintenance or service questions you may have during the life
