  1. Palletization Le Collisage Dover, Delaware - 2006

  2. Objective Comprehend how to properly prepare cargo for movement in the 463L system Comprendre comment préparer proprement le cargo pour le déplacement dans le système 463L

  3. OverviewApercu • 463L System le système 463L • Pallets les palettes • Pallet Build-Up montage des palettes • Married Pallets assemblage des palettes • Tiedown Techniques techniques d’arrimage

  4. 463L SystemGeneral

  5. 463L SystemDual-Rail System Système de double rails • Allows pallets to move smoothly through acft • Permettre aux palettes d’entrer facilement dans l’avion

  6. Rollers are storable to convert the cargo deck to a smooth surface for loading wheeled cargo Les roulements peuvent être enlever pour convertir la platform (économiser de l’espace) 463L SystemDual-Rail System

  7. Side rails guide the pallets into the aircraft and provide lateral and vertical restraint Les rails de cotes dirigent les palettes dans l’avion et permettent une restriction latérale et verticale 463L System Rails

  8. 463L System C-17 Logistic Rail Lock KC-10 Restraint Assembly • Rails have special locks that prevent forward and rear aircraft movement of pallets during flight • Les rails ont des fermetures spéciales qui préviennent des mouvements des palettes au cours du vol

  9. PalletsCharacteristics • Made of corrosion resistant aluminum with a soft wood core framed on all sides by aluminum rails • Desired load capacity of 7,500 lbs. (3402 kg) • Pallets weighing less waste valuable aircraft cargo space

  10. Pallets Characteristics • 22 steel tie down rings • Max cargo carrying capacity of 10,000 lbs. (4536 kg) when using nets • 250 PSI(1.76 KSC) limitation 84” 213 cm Usable dimensions 104” 264 cm 88” 224 cm 108” 213 cm • Pallet weighs 290 lbs (132 kg)

  11. Pallet Nets • 463L Net Sets • Two side nets • One top net • A complete set of nets weighs 65 lbs (29 kg)

  12. Pallets

  13. Pallet Nets • The nets have multiple adjustment points and may be tightened to conform snugly to most loads

  14. Pallet Nets • Adequate restraint is provided for: • 10,000 lbs (4536 kg) of cargo with heights not exceeding 96”(244 cm) above the surface of the pallet, or…. • 8,000 lbs (3629 kg) of cargo with height not exceeding 100”(254 cm) above the surface of the pallet

  15. Pallet Nets • Securing cargo • Side nets can be used with sevenstraps instead of the top net • Four on the 108” long side and three on the 88”shortside, hooked to the highest row of side net rings

  16. Pallet Nets • Securing cargo • This configuration of straps cinches the side nets up and provides vertical restraint for the cargo • The seven strap option can restrain 10,000 lbs. (4536 kg) of cargo to a 463L pallet

  17. Pallet Nets • Top net only • Provides adequate restraint for low profile items of cargo • (up to 45” tall, 114cm) • weighing up to 2,500 lbs. (1134 kg) (net cargo weight) • If exceeded supplemental restraint will be required

  18. Tiedown Techniques Required Restraint • Use Nylontiedown straps to provide restraint for single items or as supplemental restraint in conjunction with 463L pallet nets

  19. PalletsStorage and Handling • Always put adequate dunnage under 463L pallets: • Aids in pallet movement • Protects lower surface of pallet • Minimum dimensions of each piece of dunnage is 4” x 4” x 88” (10 x 10 x 224 cm) • All pallets are required to be shipped with dunnage and a complete net set (2 side/1 top), for both deployment and redeployment and must be provided by the user

  20. PalletsStorage and Handling • Pallets may be stacked 20 high for air shipment • Up to 50 pallets high in storage areas.

  21. Pallets Storage and Handling • Protect the upper surface of the pallet • Never push or slide 463L pallets across any solid surface • Protect nets from adverse weather conditions

  22. Pallets Storage and Handling • Protecting nets: • Hang and dry all nets after use • Never pile wet nets together • Nets can mildew • Hooks can rust

  23. Pallets Inspection • Ensure serviceability: • Do not use pallets if aluminum skin is separating or punctured • The skin-to-rail bond is an important part of the pallet’s strength • Use pallets with minor dents, gouges, and scratches that do not fracture the skin • Keep pallets as clean as possible

  24. Pallet Build-Up Palletized Cargo • Distribute large and heavy objects evenly from the center of the pallet outward: • Prevents pallet from becoming heavy on one end • Maintains pallet center of balance

  25. Pallet Build-Up Palletized Cargo • Containers marked “this side up” must be placed upright • Cargo with special labels should have labels facing outward

  26. Hole in bottom of C-17 from battery packed upside down on pallet. Acid ate hole thru pallet and aircraft floor

  27. 26

  28. Pallet Build-UpPalletized Cargo • Hazardous materials: • Must be placed on the pallet with the label clearly visible and never buried or hidden • Must be accessible in flight in case of leakage

  29. Married Pallets Exceeding Pallet Dimensions • When cargo exceeds the dimensions of a single pallet, you must join two or more pallets together

  30. Married PalletsExceeding Pallet Dimensions • Equipment needed for build-up: • High line • Rollerized flatbed • K-loader

  31. Summary • 463L System • Pallets • Pallet Build-Up • Tiedown Techniques
