Upgrades of sorts:
Intelligrated offers
an upgrade program for all North
American installations of Intelligrated
sorters, including
IntelliSort, FKI
Logistex, UniSort, Crisplant, Mathews, and
Buschman brand equipment. Upgrades from
Intelligrated optimize system capacity and
throughput, improve equipment utilization, and
extend system life for a fraction of the cost and
downtime associated with a new installation.
The Intelligrated sorter upgrade program
begins with a comprehensive audit of the
existing system. Intelligrated then completes a
full analysis of multiple upgrade, retrofit, and
rebuild options, developing several solutions
that allow customers the flexibility to customize their sortation solution based on facility or business requirements.
Equipment improvements can range from
the replacement of obsolete components to a
complete overhaul of machinery. Upgrades
also provide the opportunity for parts standardization, reducing cost and streamlining maintenance requirements. Adaptive control
enhancements offer increased throughput and
visibility, while software upgrades ensure compatibility with the facility’s current operating system. Add-ons, such as advanced preventative
maintenance and diagnostics software, are also
available. (Intelligrated, www.intelligrated.com)
