On the main conveyor, there is a designated point from which the pallet can be moved to the dead arm - the operator decides on the move according to the current state and need on the line. When a pallet is moved, it is picked up and moved to the secondary conveyor. 3 pallets can be placed on the conveyor at the same time. If the position in front of the conveyor is empty, the operator can unload the pallet from the tray.
