2006-06-07 Jeco’s Dual Entry Pallet
The Jeco Dual Entry Pallet uniquely addresses a problem common at laminators
and converters. Because the Dual Entry Pallet can be approached by a forklift
operator from any side, it need not be turned between the printing press and
the laminator in continuous feed
operations. This feature not only streamlines operations between the press
and the laminator, it saves time and reduces handling damage caused by maneuvering
large pallet loads in what are often close quarters.
Announcing the product, Jeco CEO Craig Carson commented, ‘Laminators
and converters who have tested the Jeco Dual Entry Pallet call it a most clever
design, executed with the laminator in mind. The Jeco Dual Entry Pallet is
rotationally moulded of linear low density polyethylene to provide impact
resistance and rigidity. Unlike wooden pallets, Jeco
plastic pallets are virtually indestructible under normal factory conditions.
They never splinter and are not subject to structural failure.’
Jeco Plastic Products manufactures durable pallets specifically designed for
presses made by all the major press manufacturers: Heidelberg, KBA, MAN Roland,
Bobst and others. It makes pallets for the 74, 104, 142 and 162 series sheetfed
machines, as well as all varieties of web presses.
Other capabilities include the ability to produce complex plastic structural
components with high tolerance requirements. Jeco production facilities include
rotational plastic moulding and thermoforming capabilities unique in North
America. Jeco designers employ complex
plastic compounds to impart dimensional stability and structural integrity
to their products.
Jeco Plastic Products is located in Plainfield, Indiana. Further information
