摘要: This report provides details and results of the pallet system study performed by Battelle Memorial Institute under the guidance and sponsorship of Armstrong Laboratory, Logistics Research Division. The six-month study focused on the 463L pallet system, which is the core component of the air cargo mobility system. The study concluded that the current 463L pallet has been effective at moving large amounts of cargo for decades. Despite this effectiveness, the pallet is susceptible to damage and, thus, frequent and costly repair. As a possible remedy to this problem, an improved pallet design could greatly reduce damage and subsequent costly repair. As a major subtask to this effort, recycled plastic lumber was examined as a substitute for wooden dunnage. The evaluation of plastic lumber determined it to be a technically and functionally appropriate replacement for wood.
