Guangxi Wooden Pallet Production: Four Key Stages from Material Selection to Finishing
- Material Selection: Wood Types and Regional Differences
Wooden pallets are generally made from pine, Chinese fir or certain composite wood materials, and the actual wood used varies by region. With southern timber, high humidity leads to higher moisture content, which can hurt pallet weight and rot resistance. In the north, the climate is dry and humidity is low, so the wood is drier and more likely to crack.
- Drying: Moisture Removal and Internal Stress Relief
After the raw material is selected, the wood must go through drying. This process effectively removes moisture and eliminates internal stress, so the wood will not develop pest or disease problems from dampness during manufacturing, nor will it crack from dryness, which can affect wooden pallet quality and export.
- Cutting and Planing: Achieving a Smooth Surface
Once the wood is dry, processing becomes the main focus. A panel saw is used for cutting, and a surface planer is used for shaping; the ends are trimmed to ensure the wood is smooth. After suitable wood is selected, waxing and finishing are carried out to protect its quality in use.
- Finishing: Sanding and Anti-Loosening Assembly
After the wood has been planed flat, it undergoes deep processing and is turned into finished boards using sanding machines and other methods. The formed boards are then nailed into semi-finished pallets with anti-loosening drive pins, or anti-loosening pads can be used.
