Synopsis of Courier’s New Distribution Center’s Parcel Sortation System

  • Situation: As part of an on-going expansion program, a leading national courier built a new distribution center and purchased a new Parcel Sortation System that included one cross-belt sorter fed from multiple unload lines.
  • Issue: Reduced concentration on manually intensive parcel sortation processes by comparison to the sorting operations at the courier’s other facilities.
  • Requirement: Parcel Sortation System controls complete with a wide range of automated operations, detailed graphical representation of the complete system/processes, real-time operating status indicators, and high-availability redundancy.
