Conveyors & Sortation

Together, the IDEXX and FORTE teams designed a new automated material handling system with two separate packing areas: one for single-zone orders and the remaining stations for multiple-zone orders.

Wet Seal’s distribution center is a prime example of a materials handling system designed to complement a retailer’s business model. In the case of this fast fashion retailer, the equipment, systems and processes are designed to receive, allocate, process and ship new merchandise to the retailer’s 554 stores within 24 hours of receipt.

A high number of products, with fast-changing product line, high seasonal fluctuations and fastest-possible transit times – the fashion industry deals with these challenges like no other industry. And KNAPP, like no other system partner stands for highly-efficient solutions in this field.

Sortation systems become increasingly essential in an environment where the product mix is complex. For example, retail, pharmaceutical, package delivery and mail have always required sortation. Today, manufacturers are also realizing this growing need as smaller lot sizes with broader product lines are much more commonplace.

Whether in the service sector or in industry – the demands on modern sortation and distribution systems are constantly increasing. Complex material distribution technology, flexibility in sorter tasks, the ability to adapt to local conditions and efficient order picking all play important roles. With sophisticated designs, BEUMER offers individualised system solutions with powerful software that impress with their profitability, speed and precision.
