This project was an expansion project in a warehouse for a leading office supplier in Canada, to increase output capacity and storage capabilities. Partnering with Advance Millwrights, ICS installed a conveyor system for a pick line, complete with a camera diverter that includes a barcode reader to increase speed and efficiency. Along with the camera system are sensors to stage boxes to mitigate the risk of jam-ups and avoid downtime.
This multilevel system includes a spiral decline conveyor to bring boxes to the lower level which also uses the camera and sensor system to move boxes along the lower pick line. Our team of expert electricians and programmers installed the PLC system, providing a full-service solution.
