€2 million sortation system

Dürkopp has already installed a near €2 million sortation system using its Roll Adapter technology at the firm’s new distribution centre in Lanarkshire where more than one million hire garments are stored. Now automation will be further enhanced with the addition of a €135,000 induction system and adapter bunker. This will reduce the time needed to load clothing and accessory items onto the system, increase storage capacity and enable the condition of adapters to be checked automatically. Any that are found to be damaged are removed so that maintenance work can be carried out.
