PALLET NAIL PRESS AND METHOD OF USE

摘要

A pallet nail press used to drive random fasteners extending from a pallet (P) after repair and assembly thereof. The pallet nail press includes multiple feed conveyors (11, 20) that pre-position individual repaired pallets (P) within a press support assembly (10) having multiple vertical lift beams (31, 32) below the conveyors (11, 20). The vertical lift beams (31, 32) are driven by a lift bag assembly (27, 28). In use, the pre-positioned pallet (P) is lifted off a feed conveyor (20) and driven against correspondingly positioned anvil beams (38, 39, 40) driving the outwardly extending fasteners flush with the pallet (P). Sensors (50) activate positioning (44, 45) and lift the bag assembly (27, 28) in a selected nature, cycling the pallets (P) through the pallet nail press.
