MHW Magazine News and stories from the Materials Handling Industry
Material Handling specialist Vanriet UK Ltd recently became aware of the need, within the UK, for a low cost alternative to the currently available but very expensive fully automated weigh and volumise machines.
Whilst undertaking a project for a leading parcel delivery provider it became apparent that nothing suitable was readily available within the UK.
The project led Vanriet on behalf of their customer, to further explore the market, eventually identifying Express Cube as an ideal provider. At the same time Express Cube were also looking for an established UK company to undertake all marketing, sales and service support for their EC250 cube and weigh machine.
The EC250 Cube and Weigh unit provides a low cost alternative for all applications where weight and cube dimension information needs to be captured.
Aimed at the Parcel Delivery, Home Shopping and Mail Order market, the unit will typically capture weight and dimension information for:-
Parcels upto 600mm x 655mm x 940mm x 30kg
Other features and benefits include:-
Throughputs are upto 900 parcels / hr
Transfer of information via standard RS communication protocol
Low capital costs.
The Express Cube EC250 can be easily integrated into either an existing handling system, purpose built into a new handling system or even used as a stand alone machine.
Express Cube see their EC250 as a 'natural fit' into the established Vanriet product and client base.
Vanriet recognises that the EC250 Cube and Weigh unit should interest system integrators along with end users and welcome enquires from all interested parties.
