Automatic assembly of customer orders has
never been easier - or faster with White’s Mercury Order Assembly
System (OAS)
White Conveyors newest addition to the patented Compu-Sort®
line, The Mercury Order Assembly System (OAS), automatically sorts
and assembles customer orders effortlessly. Integrated with any
POS system, orders are assembled and ready for bagging. The standard
Mercury OAS is configured with a single load station and 4 drop
stations. The configuration can modified to accommodate additional
drop stations and a second load station. Information is automatically
imported from the POS system and utilized by the Mercury OAS computer
interface.
White Conveyors ADC is the perfect solution to expand your existing
business, improve customer service and increase profits.
The Process:
Each previously identified garment has been and scanned into the
POS system. As garments are finished at the applicable work station
they are moved to the Mercury OAS. Running at 30 feet per minute,
an operator can easily scan and load large quantities of garments
on to the system. A single operator is all that is required for
this order assembly system.
The operator will be asked to “log on”. This employee’s
ID Number will be sent
to the POS System to log the employee’s performance.
By selecting the “Assemble Garments Button”, the
conveyor will reference
and continually run at 30 feet per minute during training. Speed
can be
increased as operator gains experience.
After the conveyor is referenced, the operator will be prompted
to “Scan
Garment ID”.
Once the first piece ID is scanned the customer information
will appear on the
screen. If this is the first piece to the order an invoice will
print and a beeping
noise will sound, the operator will take the invoice and place
it over the hanger,
then place the garment on the conveyor within the “Load
Station”.
The operator will continue to scan and hang while the conveyor
is rotating.
When an order is complete, it is immediately delivered to one
of the four
drop stations with the dry-cleaning invoice attached to the first
piece.
If a second order is completed while the first order is being
dropped it will
be deposited on the second drop station.
As orders are completed, a maximum of 4 orders can be dropped
from the
conveyor per revolution of the machine. The completed orders are
delivered from the conveyor to a holding rail.
On the holding rail all pieces from the order are deposited
with additional
orders being sequentially dropped until the rail is full.
When sorting is complete, orders can be removed and taken to
a
bagging station.
