Notches turn a two-way stringer pallet into a true four-way-entry pallet — the format North American and global logistics chains demand.
- ENABLE FOUR-WAY ENTRY: Cut the notches that let forklifts enter from all four sides — essential for GMA 48"×40" and American-style stringer pallets.
- HIGH-VOLUME, IN-HOUSE: At 3,000-3,600 stringers/hour, the SF7013S lets large producers notch in-house at scale — controlling cost, quality and supply.
- 3,000-3,600 PCS/HOUR: Double-head high-speed notching delivers up to 3,600 stringers per hour — built for high-volume pallet producers.
- AUTOMATIC LIFTING & FEEDING: An automatic feeding device lifts and feeds wood automatically — higher efficiency, lower labour cost, one operator.
- SIEMENS PLC CONTROL: Siemens PLC runs the notching cycle precisely and repeatably — consistent notches at high speed.
- INDEXABLE ALLOY CUTTERS: Removable, indexable alloy cutter heads rotate to a fresh edge instead of being replaced — lower running cost. Heads available from us or locally.
- 228.6 mm (9") NOTCH, ADJUSTABLE: Notch width up to 228.6 mm (American GMA standard); notch depth adjustable to 60 mm; slotting position adjustable.
- MOTOR STAR-DELTA START: Soft star-delta starting protects the motor and keeps the machine running stably for a long service life. Includes deburring pad and dust extraction.

At 3,000-3,600 stringers/hour with automatic feeding, the SF7013S lets high-volume producers notch in-house at scale — and the indexable cutter system keeps running costs low.
