E-commerce & parcel sorting solutions
Connect parcel induction, identification and destination sorting in one planned goods flow, with a defined route for exceptions.
Krona projects
Pharmaceutical carton dispatch project
A Krona project combining fixed roller transport, lift-and-transfer units and DWS for pharmaceutical outbound handling.
The handling challenge
The outbound operation combined packed split-case orders and full cartons. It needed connected movement between handling points and a way to associate each outbound carton with its measured parcel data.
The project arrangement
The Krona project combined a fixed roller conveyor route with lift-and-transfer units and DWS. The roller line carried cartons between operations; the transfer units changed their route at selected junctions; the DWS stage collected barcode, weight and dimension information for outbound handling.
How the goods move
- Collect cartons
Link packing stations to a fixed carton route with defined stops and interfaces.
- Transfer between routes
Use lift-and-transfer modules where the carton must change direction at a right angle.
- Capture dispatch data
Pair carton identity with measured weight and dimensions before downstream dispatch.
Equipment in this solution
Powered roller conveyors
Custom-made powered roller conveyors for cartons and rigid totes. Configure the length, usable width, transfer heights, roller support and controls around your line.
Pop-up conveyor transfers
Custom-made pop-up conveyor transfers for right-angle goods movement. Configure the module width, length, transfer heights, support pattern and sequence around your adjoining lines.
DWS measurement systems
Custom-made parcel dimensioning, weighing and scanning stations. Configure conveyor dimensions, presentation, measurement arrangement and data interfaces around your parcel flow.
What to consider for your site
For a similar layout, identify which orders merge and where they separate. Define the smallest carton, label positions and warehouse messages first. Treat parcel data capture and product-level traceability as separate requirements in the project brief.
