In response to ever-increasing volume of shipments, DHL developed a number of strategies to improve its existing facilities’ sorting capacity.

Challenges:

 

  • Finding the most powerful technical solution to “connect to the existing parcel center” on a brownfield site at an attractive price
  • Developing various layout solutions and multiple mock-ups to gain customer confidence and demonstrate our quality and performance
  • Integrate the equipment for connecting the co-location in the existing center
  • Realizing the project during operations, as in an “open-heart surgery”
  • Creating a compact timeline so as not to break our client’s investment budget

 

Solutions Implemented:

 

  • 2 VarioSort cross-belt sorters with 120 sorting destinations
  • 6 Double-in high-speed inductions
  • 8 High-speed inductions
  • 4 conveyor lines to connect the existing parcel center

 

Benefits:

 

In less than a year, we successfully equipped the new sorting hall with extensive parcel sorting technology and connected it to the existing center.

 

The bridge contains four conveyor sections on two levels. This connecting section can also be used as a buffer.
