In an ideal scenario, you’d have sufficient cardboard boxes available in a wide range of sizes ready for order picking at all times. In reality, it often happens that employees are spending a lot of time preparing the shipping boxes when they could actually be spending the time picking.
By integrating an automatic box forming machine into your order picking system, an extremely efficient process is created. Your employees always have the right number of boxes with the right dimensions. The labor costs you save in this way ensure a quick payback time.
Benefits
Volume calculation
The box forming machine takes cardboard sheets from a stack, folds them into shape and prepares them with tape or glue. Box forming machines are available in different sizes and can automatically adjust to any box size. The Inther LC software suite includes functionality for volume calculation, which ensures that the machine produces boxes with dimensions that perfectly match the customer order.
Seamless integration
To ensure that the box forming machine is optimally designed within the total logistics concept, Inther uses proven, highly standardized communication techniques with the Inther LC control software. The control with Inther LC is modular, so that the box erector can be seamlessly integrated into any material handling system via the Inther LC control platform. With our ability to design ‘all-in-one’ systems and to think ‘out-of-the-box’, we are the ideal partner for your complete warehouse solution.
