This lean manufacturing approach ensures process improvement, engineering experience, and expertise designing high performance solutions is a best-practice. With hundreds of successful implementations operating in low to high volume postal processing operations around world, this experience proves vital for customers expanding their omni-channel operations. At the core of each solution is the system design and layout configuration including robust convey and sort technology engineered for the rigorous demands of postal sorting applications.

Murdoch noted that postal sortation may include sliding shoe sorters offering reliable high-speed postal sorting, ideal for a variety of product sizes and shapes such as soft packs, polybags, and corrugated boxes. A wide range of conveyors are available for postal and postal distribution; flexible solutions handle inconsistent shapes and sizes, and increase speed and accuracy for weighing, tracking, and delivery.
