We are pleased to announce that after 9 months of R&D, customer input and much testing, RoboScan is scheduled to begin processing finished good pallets next month. What is RoboScan you ask? RoboScan is a machine that automatically scans the case labels on a pallet of finished good products and then creates a detailed pallet file and pallet label. RoboScan controls the conveyor movement of the pallets into the scan area, scans the pallet using four robotic arms and four cameras in under 30 seconds, then moves the pallet out of the scan area to the next process, which is typically shrink wrap.
RoboScan is fully integrated with our R8 Inventory Management system, with the initial version targeted for existing CFS customers that have robotically stacked, non-nested pallets.
