  • Page 4: Introduction

    1.1 System Background The PULSE Pallet system consists of rail sections mounted as a ground level track system. The pallet is conveyed from station to station, traveling at the same elevation throughout the rail system. Once the pallet is brought into a workstation, the pallet is raised slightly by the pallet ski guides in the workstation that is comprised of a geo-locating fixture.
