Freightways using BEUMER sortation system in new South Island Hub

BEUMER Group has been awarded the contract to supply an automated material handling system in Freightways’ new South Island Hub at Christchurch Airport, New Zealand. The BEUMER sortation system will be based on a LS-4000CB cross-belt sorter with the capacity to handle up to 15,000 items per hour.

The system has been specifically designed to enable efficient handling of the high volume of items in a short window, including wine boxes and fresh fish polystyrene containers which are shipped through the Freightways Courier Network.

The Freightways group, which also includes Post Haste, Castle Parcels and Now Couriers, is New Zealand’s largest independent courier network.

The new hub will provide Freightways with direct airside access when it goes live in June 2017.
