Pallet inspection with vision: every pallet checked before it leaves.
Cameras at the end of the line or at the dock that check build quality, height, labels and wrap, and stop pallets that fail.
- 01Detects shifted, overhanging or badly stacked boxes.
- 02Checks height, wrap and SSCC label on every pallet.
- 03Stores a photo of how each pallet left: evidence for claims.
The problem
A badly built pallet breaks in the truck, gets rejected at the customer’s distribution center, or triggers a damage claim that is hard to dispute without evidence.
Computer vision checks every pallet at the same point, with the same criteria, and stores the image against the shipment.
The pallet goes through the gantry. The model decides if it ships.
- 01 · CaptureA gantry with cameras takes images of the pallet from several angles.
- 02 · CheckThe model checks build quality, height, wrap and label.
- 03 · DiversionFailed pallets go to rework, with the reason logged.
Where it applies
- Build and stabilityShifted boxes, overhangs and leaning stacks.
- Height and dimensionsCompliance with each customer’s or carrier’s standard.
- SSCC labelsPresence, position and readability of the code.
- Proof of dispatchA photo of every pallet linked to the delivery note.
The model is the easy part. The hard part is the operation.
- Data
- Images of good and bad pallets from your own operation.
- Integration
- WMS and labeling system to match pallet, order and photo.
- Infrastructure
- A camera gantry with stable lighting at the line exit or dock.
- Operations
- A rework station and rules per customer.

No. Inspection takes under a second and happens while the pallet keeps moving.
Yes, though it limits how much of the boxes you can see. We combine it with height and shape measurement.
Yes. Each photo is tied to the pallet and the shipment.
