I work in a facility identical to that one, except people just wear whatever because it stays about 90 degrees minimum inside. Definitely hard work, but I enjoy it.
@@sherpaderpdingo3405 got a die setter job instead, that other job was part time. Still wonder if it would make some good money though. They just relisted it
I worked at a pallet meal in Alabama,one guy fed the notcher I stacked them on the other end.We also had a pallet machine along manual builders they were fast
I’ve worked in a pallet factory and there are machines doing this work but they aren’t always as productive as two experienced and well coordinated people, plus they still need at least one operator and ongoing maintenance. Problem is finding people fit enough to do this 8 - 12 hours a day for relatively low pay.
I worked at Peco Pallets. The guys repaired the ones that needed it. Then they got painted. Repair guys made $15 base. With production incentives they could make up to $22 an hour. I was happy making $16 to load trucks. Pallets weighed 62 pounds apiece. Guys had back problems Shoulders rotator cuff etc.
Don't know where you live but 15 an hour is not enough for that type of work where I live 22 sound more like it though If you were getting payed 16 loading them with a forklift that not that bad
Guns are not for production. No where near as fast or as good at making pallets. These pallets are made with substandard nails. Wire is .083 or .099 not machine grade .115 or .120 in diameter. Gun nails have poor threads or rings so they are easier to drive. Holding power is next to nothing and the steel in the nails is lower grade allowing them to bend easier and make shiners. And the clincher (no pun) is that these nails cost twice that of loose nails. That alone will pay for a real nailing machine.
With all of our current automation technology, like on 'How It's Made', why are jobs like this still requiring manual labour to manufacture a wooden pallet?
