Free Reweld Service
To celebrate its 10th year as a grateful supplier to the wooden pallet industry, Dixie Precision now extends part of its “no quibble” warranty to include any competitor’s disassembly or thin kerf resaw blades.
Dixie provides this hassle free offer in response to premature breaking of bandsaw blades.

Industrial Resources Machine Stacks, Dispenses Pallets
Industrial Resources of Michigan is offering a new In-Line Pallet Accumulator-Dispenser for pallet recycling operations. The machine will stack, accumulate or dispense pallets as needed.
It is controlled by a photo-electric eye on the opposite side of the pallet and can allow pallets to pass through, stack and accumulate or dispense, depending on the user’s needs.
When a pallet is removed from the conveyor at a work station, the control device detects an empty space on the conveyor and will dispense a pallet. When the control device detects that the space is occupied by a pallet, it will stack and accumulate pallets until another pallet is called for. If a pallet enters the accumulator-dispenser at the same time a pallet is called for, the pallet will pass straight through and go to the empty space on the line.
For more information about the new In-Line Pallet Accumulator-Dispenser, call Industrial Resources at (616) 677-1241, fax (616) 677-1788, or visit its Web site at www.industrialresourcesusa.com.
