The software,
screen by screen.

Every image on this page is a real screenshot of PalletLab in use. Nothing is simulated, nothing is retouched: these are the screens you will have in front of you.

PalletLab in forty seconds.

A filmed demonstration of the software in use: the pallet goes together board by board, the cost price follows every change, and the quote goes out at the end.

Full demonstration: design, live pricing, quote

The configurator.

You pick a model, you adjust the dimensions, the timber species, the options. The pallet redraws in 3D and the cost price recalculates on every change, without ever leaving the screen.

The PalletLab configurator: a Euro pallet in 3D in the centre, dimensions and timber species on the right, cost price shown at the bottom of the panel — Euro pallet 1200 × 800: cost price and selling price always in view

The catalogue.

Thirty-six ready-to-use models, grouped by family: pallets, crates, bulk bins, A-frame racks. Every thumbnail is a render from the engine, not a photograph. One double-click and the model is loaded.

The PalletLab model library, Catalogue tab, with models grouped by family and their 3D renders — Library: catalogue grouped by family, with dimensions and weights

Your rates, not ours.

Purchase price per m³ for each of the seven species, nails and screws by the kilo, ISPM 15 treatment, your fully loaded hourly labour cost, assembly time, waste rate. Everything that goes into a cost price is set here, once and for all.

The PalletLab material rates window: purchase price per species, fasteners, treatments, labour and assembly time — Material rates: your real purchase prices feed every quote

The quote.

Customer, quantities, discount, VAT, deposit. Every amount is rounded to the penny then used as the basis for the next: if your customer redoes the sums on a calculator, they get the same figure. The PDF goes out on your letterhead, with technical views of the model.

The PalletLab quote creation window: customer details, quote lines, margin, VAT and a visual preview of the model in perspective and technical views — Creating a quote: visual preview, adjustable margin, cost breakdown per unit

The cutting list.

Sections, lengths, quantities, volumes: the complete bill of materials, to the millimetre, ready to go down to the workshop. The total volume is consistent with the material cost to within 0.15%, and the CSV export feeds straight into your management system.

The PalletLab cutting list: a table of parts with description, quantity, length, width, thickness and volumes — Cutting list: every part, its section and its volume, exportable to CSV

The manufacturing analysis.

The software reviews your design before the saw runs: permissible load, deck coverage, spacings, supports. Doubtful points are flagged with an explanation, not just an error code.

The PalletLab manufacturing analysis panel: rated load, deck coverage and detected points with their explanation — Manufacturing analysis: official rated load and points to check

Loading.

How many pallets fit in a semi-trailer, in a 20- or 40-foot container? The simulator works out the floor layout, the stacking, the number of vehicles and the fill rate. Enough to answer the customer without drawing up a loading plan by hand.

The free-form workshop.

When no standard model fits, you build board by board: magnetic snapping, spacing dimensions, alignment, repeat in a row, assembly analysis. Then cutting list and quote, exactly as for a catalogue model.

The PalletLab free-form workshop: several boards assembled with their spacing dimensions and the properties panel on the right — Free-form workshop: part-by-part assembly, with live dimensions
