Post of Sweden has announced that they will continue to order equipment for direct mail handling from Schur Packaging Systems.
This multi-million order consists of five state-of-the-art collator lines for extension of the Post of Sweden’s plants in Malmo and Gothenburg.
As a leading supplier of mailroom solutions and equipment for direct mail handling Schur can focus on being innovative and developing new solutions together with their customers.
The Post of Sweden has benefited from this strategy. With Schur’s technology, the high level of accuracy leads to less waste, lower costs and new business possibilities. The Post of Sweden has added a competitive edge to their mailing services, creating individual packages of promotional print and to target their products down to a single copy.
With the two new lines for the plant in Malmo and three lines for the plant in Gothenburg, the technology from Schur brings Post of Sweden one step closer to full automation of their production.
The informative display system IDS, will optimise the production and provide the personnel with a complete overview of the collating process. These new lines have also been redesigned for improved ergonomics, with lower table height and shorter working distance to the feeder.
Apart from the plants in Malmo and Gothenburg, Post of Sweden has seven other facilities located all over Sweden. They have been dealing with direct mail handling for many years but the mechanical handling began in 1999. The collaboration between the Post of Sweden and Schur started when the first standard collator machines were delivered back in 2002. The cooperation has expanded ever since, and as a result of the close relationship many new solutions have been developed and adapted to the needs of Post of Sweden. This has now resulted in five new state-of-the-art collating lines.
Each line consists of an A883 Collator with 20 to 22 feeders, Pegasus stacker, online bundle address labelling and strapping machine. They will be installed during May, June and August.
