Are you still using wooden production boards?
Are you still using wooden pallets for concrete blocks? Home Are you still using wooden production boards? Traditionally, wooden pallets for concrete blocks have been used for manufacturing of concrete blocks, pavers and kerbstones for a very long time. Only reason for the same has been abundant availability off softwood and law cost associated with it. However, concrete block manufacturers have had their fair share of problems with the wooden pallets especially the following: Comparatively small lifespan Surface irregularities Deflection under heavy weight Moisture problems High breaking rates Higher vibration time Wooden pallets for concrete blocks have a finite and Small Lifespan considering they offer little resistance to the abrasive nature of concrete. With a density of softwood at 300kg/m3, it is helpless against the constant grinding of concrete on its surface. Slowly, the splinters start forming leading to eventual delay of the wooden boardSince a wooden board is made up of several individual boards joined together, opening and cracking at seams is very normal and experienced in 100% wooden boards. These Surface Irregularities are detrimental to the concrete products thus formed, creating consistent low quality products. Low density of softwood can cause deflection of wooden pallets for concrete blocks under heavy loads. Deflection causes serious problems due to varying heights of products on the same production cycle, causing immense and continuous quality issues. Some countries are local councils are very strict about the maximum height deviation that can be acceptable. Wood is a perpetual living material, as a result of which it constantly breathes air and water and can be victims of Moisture Problems. By nature, wood is an excellent material with very long lifespan provided it is kept at optimum moisture level at all times. This constantly maintained moisture levels enable boats last a lifetime as long as they stay in water. However, these characteristics change in an industrial environment when the wooden boards are subjected to rapidly changing humidity levels. Keeping the wooden pallets in sun a few times can completely ruin them forever, and require immediate replacement for continued concrete block production. Wood is a soft material and is prone to high breaking rates requiring frequent replacements. This weakness is an irritant faced by production managers all over the world causing frequent disruptions in production schedule, and mismanagement in manpower scheduling. However, the main negative point that production managers across the world face with wooden pallets for concrete blocks is the higher cycle times. Since wood has relatively low density at 300kg/m3, it resists transmission of vibrations, as a result of which, vibrations get absorbed in wooden pallets. Lesser vibrations reaching concrete translated to higher vibration period. Consequently, use of wooden production boards for concrete pallets translates into higher cycle times and to lesser production. It is generally estimated a 2 second faster cycle can enable you produce upto One Million more standard blocks per annum. Maybe it is time that you tried out the most modern engineered materials for your factory. You might be pleasantly surprised at enhanced production levels and quality of your products. And yes, using Rhino Composite Pallets in not a bad idea!!! Tags:wooden pallets for concrete blocks

The effect of Rhino hardwood pallets for concrete paver machine on environment
In todays world, new generation is much more aware of environment than their parents. Our natural resources are limited, and we all should try and use the ones that are renewable and leave minimum footprints in terms of pollution. Rhino Composite Pallets always tries to shoulder its share of responsibility in utilising environmentally friendly methods and materials when manufacturing our wooden pallets for paver machine. Since hardwood is the main ingredient of Rhino Composite Pallets, we source our hardwood from renewable plantation that will ensure an endless supply of timber to mankind without cutting down established rainforests that also have huge devastating implication on ecosystem. Since a large supply of hardwood is from rainforests, we do our bit to source it from plantations that are renewable. It ensures that rainforests stay as they are always are….green and perpetual. Since superheated steam is used to ensure bonding of concrete paver machine pallets at extremely high temperature, enormous amounts of steam is generated to achieve the high technical standards. A large extent of Energy produced in the factory uses bagasse based fuel that is manufactured from a mix of sugarcane crusher leftovers that are high in calorific value, only augmented by fossil fuels as and when necessary. Factory goes one step further to do its bit for the environment. It frequently arranges afforestation drives to educate local communities about importance of environment. Children and adults are encouraged to plant samplings to increase the tree populations in their neighbourhoods. Such consistent drives encourage communities to take up afforestation far and wide. Wildlife is improving, and vast areas of wilderness are getting a green cover.

Is Rhino Composite Pallets technologically superior?
Are Rhino Composite Pallets technologically superior? Home Is Rhino Composite Pallets technologically superior? All production pallets for concrete blocks that you see in market today exist because of any or more inherent quality in terms of usefulness or price. All of them have their own advantages in one form or another, enabling their respective manufacturers to keep serving their customers. However, as a manufacturer of concrete products, you need to see an overall perspective since buying pallets for concrete products is a decision that demands considerable financial resources. This also necessitates the fact that due research is necessary before reaching on a conclusion about the best option available to you, and the long/short terms benefits that can be derived from such a decision.Lest first talk about the technical superiority of Rhino Composite Pallets in terms of engineering excellence associated with it.It all starts with the core of Rhino Composite Pallets. The core is made of numerous thin veneer sheets shaved off hydraulically from plantation hardwood timber. Each veneer sheet is manually checked for quality, and always used in cross-laid fashion increasing the overall core strength manyfold. Rhino Composite Pallets is perhaps the only product that uses hardwood in manufacturing of core with a board density exceeding 1,000 kg/m3 that can be further increased to 1,200 kg/m3 at specific client request. Noticeably, nearest we have seen is 700 kg/m3 making Rhino Pallets around 40% denser enabling better vibration transmission. Better vibration transmission logically cuts down on total time required for vibration, and consequently shorter overall cycle time for production of each pallet of concrete products.The core of Rhino Composite Pallets is pressed using 3,300 Tonne Hydraulic Press using superheated steam for prolonged time ensuring multiple veneer layers are permanently glued together. To further ensure long term consistent performance, boards are double pressed upside down a second time. This increases the lifespan of the board in highly challenging conditions prevalent in any concrete products manufacturing factory.A choice of three surfaces is offered by Rhino Composite Pallets to meet specific requirements of individual customers around the world. From the standard synthetic film surface to interwoven industrial fabric to the most technologically advanced Glass Fibre surfaces give clients varied forms of surfaces. All the offered surfaces have their own individual qualities in terms of resistance to abrasion by Concrete Products and increase the overall lifespan of pallets.Best way to experience the technical superiority of Rhino Composite Pallets would be to try out a few pallets of different surfaces and see the difference in quality achieved in your products.
