Discover how to boost your competitive advantage

Benefit from the integration of standard and new technologies

At Parcel+Post Expo, you will have the opportunity to discuss how to develop the best-fit automated solution for your specific operational needs. By visiting FORTNA’s booth and speaking with our experts, you will learn more about proven sortation solutions and how you can leverage them to handle and sort your parcel mix. Whether your environment is greenfield or brownfield, you can maximise your sorting centre’s efficiency by adopting a tailored automated solution that considers your current requirements, parcel flow, footprint, and future flexibility. A demonstration of our FORTNA cross-belt sorter, shoe sorter, and swivel sorter solutions will guide you in meeting all throughput rate needs.

According to the Postal & Parcel Trend Report 2024, competition and the fight for market share is one of the biggest challenges in 2024 for 70% of businesses. Fifty-six percent (56%) think that adopting and integrating new technologies presents significant challenges as well, along with leveraging big data.

Improve processes affected by labour challenges

The ability to integrate new robotic solutions is crucial in reducing costs, creating efficiencies, and addressing workforce-related issues. At FORTNA’s booth, you will discover how robotic solutions can benefit your processes and how to leverage them in both greenfield and brownfield environments. In particular, you will learn about FORTNA’s robotic singulation and induction system, Dual 6-Axis. This modular and scalable solution combines advanced robotic technologies to quickly and accurately identify and pick items from bulk infeed, placing singulated packages in the proper orientation for downstream processes.

In addition, FORTNA OptiSweep addresses labour-intensive processes in high-volume eCommerce and sortation distribution centres. It automates the consolidation and transportation of small orders away from sortation systems. OptiSweep features Geekplus robots, while FORTNA WCS™ software orchestrates the workflow, managing the mobile robots and communicating with the sorter and consolidation stations to maximize efficiency and balance product flow.

Integrating both standard and new technologies can provide you with a strategic advantage, enabling you to stay relevant by adapting to changing market demands and technological advancements. While automation is the key enabler for efficiency gains and process optimisation, robotics solutions add an extra layer of improvement. They help enhance processes still reliant on manual labour, where high turnover, labour shortages, and rising costs can impact profitability.

Discuss your operational needs with a FORTNA expert.
