Plant Efficiency through Material Handling

Written by Softrol Systems | Apr 17, 2023 2:15:00 PM

In today’s fast-paced world, it’s essential to have the right systems in place to optimize plant efficiency and performance. Softrol Systems understands this need and has developed state-of-the-art solutions to cater to a wide range of industries. With a focus on material handling products, Softrol’s Total Plant Management system can be a game-changer for businesses looking to improve their productivity.

 

Softrol’s Sort-On Rail system, Sort to Cart, Best in Class Monorail System, and Virtual Rail systems are designed to make material handling easier and more efficient. Here is a closer look at these products:

Sort-On Rail

This system is perfect for operators looking to achieve optimum efficiency. The high-speed cart dumpers feed a multi-station sort deck, and each operator station comes with a SmartStation touchscreen, providing feedback and item details. Sorted linens drop to monorail bags that move in and out of the deck automatically when the desired weight is achieved, with no sorting delays during a bag change out.

Sort to Cart

Sorting directly to carts provides an economical semi-automated approach to soiled linen processing. Full carts are transferred manually to a bag lift station, where bags are lifted into bag storage and then automatically called to the wash aisle.

Best-In-Class Rail System 

Softrol’s round steel rail is industrially hardened and operates smoothly with maximum wear protection. Our system includes Melonited rail, hardened and Melonited stop sections, and industrial-size cast trollies. Softrol Rail also includes an advanced control system that provides a rich array of reporting data available to assist with the management and process decisions.

Virtual Rail

For existing manual rail and cart systems, we offer the Pulsenet Virtual Rail Module (PVRM). This is a hardware and software package that can be added to manual rail systems, offering better process control and an easier way to receive information. PVRM offers a virtual view of the rail storage inventory.  It provides real-time data on items, lots, and weight and includes reporting for current and historical data to assist management.
