PDS Version 6.10 Product Release (March 2025)

PDS 6.10 delivers greater flexibility and customization with printouts, designed to meet the needs of high-end custom pallet shops.

Español

A new centering option has been introduced for Discontinuous Deckboards, which do not span the entire pallet. Previously, these boards could only be aligned to the left or right. This update expands the notes section in the Pallet Specification and Production Order, allowing users to add more detailed, custom information.

Additionally, the Production Order can now be streamlined by hiding select lumber and fastener details, making it more efficient for shop floor use—most designs can now fit on a single page.

What’s New in PDS 6.10:
  • New centered option for discontinuous deckboards (see figure above).
  • Expanded notes section in the pallet specification and production order.
  • Option to hide select lumber and fastener details in the production order.
  • Minor bug fixes and performance improvements.
