For many reasons, the number of plastic pallet systems used for global shipping purposes has increased significantly over the years. Plastic pallets are durable, reusable and clean, and do not transport harmful organisms from one country to another, so they are used No heating or chemical treatment is required before. Their weight is also lighter, which is beneficial to the shipper and can be recycled into new plastic products.
Plastic trays also make it easier for food and beverage companies to meet growing hygiene regulations because trays can be washed after each use.
Production pallets require large-tonnage injection molding machines. Wilmington Machinery Corporation (Wilmington, NC) introduced the company's first Pallateer molding machine in 2010 as demand for plastic pallets increased. The continued success of Pallateer machines has recently sparked a European company The attention is to create plastic trays in the interior.
The first step in the Wilmington project is to design a pallet that meets the customer's needs and has a low production cost. Next, the molding system is designed, manufactured and installed at the Wilmington plant.
After the installation is completed, the test tray will be run with the customer. They have been trained in the operation and maintenance of the system.
The customer's Pallateer system includes a variable frequency hydraulic system and other state-of-the-art mechanical features. It uses a structural foam injection molding process, has a high specific strength, and can work well with 100% recycled materials (including granular flakes). Wilmington The machine explains that the system is equipped with full automation, molds, pallet transport systems, nitrogen generation, material mixing and loading equipment, mold cooling and other options.
Since its establishment in 1972, Wilmington Machinery has been building high-performance, low-pressure structural foam molding machines. In addition, the company also manufactures custom extrusion, thermoforming and industrial blow molding machinery, as well as for polyolefin single/multilayer applications. The main production line of large-capacity rotary blow molding systems for barrier packaging.
