Swiss Post ups capacity at Frauenfeld parcel centre
Swiss Post has increased capacity at its Frauenfeld parcel centre by 25%, with the installation of an additional sorting system. The Frauenfeld parcel centre can now sort more than 25,000 parcels an hour on peak days.
According to Swiss Post: “The new conveyor and sorting system was first installed during ongoing operations over the three existing sorters and then connected to them. At 2.5 metres per second, it runs considerably faster than the existing systems, which peak at around 1.7 metres per second. When utilization is low, parts of the system can also be shut down if not required, consuming up to 80% less energy.”
Swiss Post also recently expanded the capacity of its Härkingen parcel centre.
