New Solution Offers Affordable Sorting For Large Containers, Including Gaylords

From MAIL Magazine’s NPF Show Newspaper:

LAFAYETTE, IN — Engineering Innovation Inc. (Eii) will be showcasing the new LightSort Gaylord Rack at the National Postal Forum in Phoenix, Arizona from May 15th to 17th. This new solution will be displayed at the Eii booth, number 501, throughout the duration of the exhibit hours.

Based upon the popular LightSort Technology, this solution offers affordable parcel automation for sorting to a wide variety of large containers, including gaylords and other pallet-sized options. Bulk sort with ease and reduce overall time spent looking for the right spot.

The LightSort Gaylord Rack is ideal for large scale sorting and delivery operations such as parcel returns or high quantity intake sorting.

With the ability to join multiple racks together, entire systems of LightSort Gaylord Racks can create a connected system of sort locations. The LightSort Gaylord, utilizing the LightSort Technology platform, can integrate into existing business logic – powered by a touchscreen controller.

View the total number of pieces scanned, analyze the PPH, set up multiple operator profiles, and pair several ring scanners at a time – all through the touchscreen controller’s easy–to-use UI.

Engineering Innovation’s LightSort Technology aids the sorting process. Scan each piece’s barcode with a wireless ring scanner to illuminate the correct location needed. Multiple operators can use the system at a time, as the technology can illuminate multiple colors on one rack for easier workflow.

Eii’s various LightSort solutions provide affordable, custom automation solutions with various configurations for any application.
