Ramping up growth

Book Distributor ramping up for continued growth with new conveying solution…

Pemic Books has restructure its distribution processes to
enhance customer service and speed up next-day deliveries with a conveying
solution that incorporates the latest Interroll components and control
technology for roller conveyors.

Pemic Books set itself an ambitious goal to extend the order
slot for next-day deliveries from 11am to 5pm and in order to achieve this it
had to relocate its activities from six existing warehouses to a new
centralised distribution centre. The new DC needed to provide a silent,
energy-saving working environment facilitating and accelerating the whole
distribution process.

The solution includes zero-pressure accumulation (ZPA)
conveyors for cartons and totes in the picking and packing/dispatch zones. The
ZPA conveyors in both areas use Interroll RollerDrives EC310 with
ConveyorControl technology and Rollers 3500 with PolyVee 3500 as well as roller
conveyor lines equipped with Rollers 1700.

“We installed the latest control technology for ZPA
conveyors”, Petr Michálek, managing director of Pemic Books said.
“The solution helps increase productivity so we can reach our goals in the area of distribution
and conveying processes.”
