Insight Automation Completes New Return Goods System at Revlon


September 04, 2007

Insight Automation announces today completion of a new return goods material handling system at Revlon Oxford, NC facility. This system utilizes the ConveyTrax(TM) CRSC CAN Roller Speed Control System for motorized drive roller conveyors.

The system consists of over 1000 feet of conveyor equipment with spur diverters, mergers, and right angle transfers. Conveyors are arranged for a returned goods receiving area, sorting to like product types, and routing to final sorting areas for re-packaging, disposal or final dispersal. The system uses all 24 volt motorized drive roller conveyors that are quieter, more energy efficient, and safer than traditional belt and roller conveyor systems. Overall routing direction and decision making is performed by the ConveyRoute(TM) software operating on a single PC. This PC system provides interface to a single fixed mount barcode scanner and over 20 hand held scanners that are used by operators to enter routing data and tote label identification to the ConveyTrax(TM) System. The built in DATA TRACKING function of the ConveyTrax(TM) control system facilitates a very simple method of routing totes from induction to destinations without the need for encoders, additional scanners or PLC logic.

The unique NO PROGRAMMING approach of the ConveyTrax(TM) control system allowed for quick implementation of this new system in record time. With features such as drag and drop configuration of all conveyor types and global speed adjustment capability of all motors in the system from a single point using the intuitive RollOn configuration software allowed the entire system to be configured and started up in a matter of a few hours instead of weeks.

The ConveyTrax(TM) product family consists of a series of low cost controller modules that are user configurable to control any type of 24 volt DC motorized roller conveyor hardware. The CRSC modules have electronic motor control and protection for any brand of motorized roller currently on the market. The ConveyTrax(TM) system is WEB enabled and can be monitored and diagnosed via the internet from virtually any location.
