- Abstract
-
It is the purpose of this VDI guideline to provide the user - under consideration of the requirements of his business and his sector of industry - with a means of selecting suitable pallets for his operation, or to test his current pallets on suitability. Furthermore, this guideline recommends specific testing methods, tolerances etc., which are based on a use-related catalogue of requirements and thus allow the development and/or production of special pallets which are best suited for the field of application in each case. In this context, the safety requirements in construction and utilization of pallets, as they are set out e.g. in applicable standards and regulations of the railways and workers compensation insurance carriers, are to be observed.
