A Turkish logistics provider commissioned our engineering team to establish Europe’s most versatile Wood Pallet Making Machine facility. The challenge: simultaneously produce four pallet sizes at 1,200+ units daily. This case study details the integrated compressed wood pallet machine solution deployed in Istanbul.
Production Mandate
- Product Mix: 800×1000mm, 800×1200mm, 1000×1200mm, 1100×1100mm pallets
- Daily Output: Minimum 300 units per size (1,200+ total)
- Material Flexibility: Wood chips and agricultural waste substrates
- Automation Level: Semi-automatic operation
Integrated Production System
High-Capacity Processing Line
- ZKBL216 Chipper: 5 ton/hour throughput
- ZK1200 Crusher: 132kW precision fiber processing
- ZKRD1815 Dryer: 3 ton/hour moisture control
