Automatic pallet inspection (MSPP)
Automatic pallet inspection (MSPP) is a process for non-contact inspection of pallets to assess their condition, quality, and dimensional accuracy. It is used to reliably detect damage, wear, or deviations based on defined inspection criteria.
Modern systems use 3D sensors, camera technology, and artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze pallets comprehensively and reproducibly. Damaged or non-compliant pallets are automatically detected and can be immediately removed from the material flow. This improves process reliability, product quality, and the availability of suitable load carriers.
Practical example:
In the goods receiving area, an automated inspection system checks every Euro pallet for damage and automatically sorts out defective pallets before they are stored.
