The BEUMER group, one of the international leaders in the manufacture of intralogistics for conveying, loading, palletizing, packaging, sortation and distribution technology, based in Beckum, Germany, has been commissioned by the Hermes Logistik Group Germany to equip the new Hermes main distribution centre at the Hannover-Langenhagen airport.
The order for the distribution centre comprises two high-capacity sortation systems, type BS 25 E-Tray, each with a capacity of 10,600 trays per hour.
These systems are being installed to sort cardboard boxes, bags and small items, as well as letters and catalogues.
Both sorters ensure redundancy in the new main distribution centre, resulting in high operational reliability of the system.
In addition, these sorters posses the flexibility to increase the number of planned destinations, enabling the owner of the distribution centre to react quickly if the volume of deliveries grows in the future.
This also allows the unloading capacity at the final stage of extension to be doubled.
