A leading digital media retailer sought to optimize store space by improving delivery procedures from its Distribution Centre. CSL, working with the main contractor, integrated a conveyor system with labelling equipment for 40+ stores. Previously, products were stored in stockrooms for pricing before display, consuming space and labor.
CSL designed and installed a two-lane sortation system to handle all digital media products. Items are singulated on low friction timing belts and fed to a labelling station. After scanning, security and price labels are applied, and the system sorts items into dedicated bins based on barcode data. The system operates at up to 60 units per minute, with automatic bin sorting and buffering.
The new system reduced stockroom space usage by allowing direct product display, and was completed on time and within budget.
