Sorter control
As the sorters are a key component of the production in a sorting facility, the reliability of the sorter control system is vital. A sorter control system has a wide variety of purposes for controlling, utilizing and optimizing the sorter capacity for sorting parcels or letter bundles, small parcels and bulk mail.
Whether you want the identification system of the sorting system to be equipped with simple, manual encoding via keyboard, reading of bar codes or RFID, Lyngsoe has the experience to provide the control system, having already delivered such solution to e.g. Australia Post, Finnish Post, Korea Post and Norwegian Post.
Supports existing operational systems
The sorting control module is an advanced support and execution system capable of interfacing and sharing data with relevant operational systems. Besides increased functionality the system also provides the postal service with direct and indirect decision support, allowing further integration into capacity planning systems.
Re-control of existing sorter control systems
Lyngsoe also provides migration and re–control of existing sorter control systems. This is carried out by replacing the sorter control system or a part hereof, integrating new components, adding new functionalities and exchanging or adding interfaces, while ensuring that the existing sorter systems are fit for the purpose and technically updated, thus eliminating the need for major investments in new sorting machines.
Lyngsoe is also able to put the same control system on top of various machines purchased at different stages or from different suppliers, enabling a streamlining of processes and efficiencies.
Sorter control with build in monitoring and maintenance planning
The QSM Operations software also contains a monitoring system to be used in a postal “control room” for monitoring the various sorting systems and other vital parts. It enables immediate corrective actions to be taken if parts of the supply chain or its components are out of service. This enhances the utilization and quality performance of the overall postal supply chain and reduces the need for local support experts. Furthermore, it can comprise a preventive maintenance plan for the control systems, including everything from recommendations for changes and upgrades to actual integration with back-up plans.
