Parcel services
General description
Processing high volumes of goods every day, parcel service reputations depend on delivering on time – requiring swift and reliable package recognition and sorting, as well as tracking the exact location and status of every single item.
Background information
Efficient parcel logistics ensures swift and reliable package recognition and sorting. It enables real-time information on the status of every single item, essential to fulfil customer requirements.
Optimised to meet these needs, the large memory of ICODE ICs can store destination details together with other relevant information, making automatic sorting and handling easy. Even overlapping parcels and flyers on a conveyor belt can be recognised using the patented anticollision algorithm to perform simultaneous read and write operations on several labels.
Products
The paper-thin, flexible labels can be applied to all parcels and flyers and can be printed on to allow conventional handling and a seamless evolution, and co-existence with existing systems. Using the low cost readers applied in printers, parcel services can even provide their clients with all the components to program I-CODE labels themselves.
Customer benefits
- Low-cost, disposable and convenient solution
- Speed and programmability
- Reading range of over one metre, without line of sight and in any orientation
- Ultra-thin labels
- Anti-collision algorithm enables multiple labels to be read simultaneously
- Data is stored on the ICODE label, rather than a remote database
