“We are now moving boxes consistently at a rate of 13 per minute, and our daily capacity has increased from $1M to $3M.”

“We could not meet our same day roast-and-ship standards without the FloShipper system.”
Neil Rowe, Director of Plant Operations,
Peet’s Coffee & Tea

FloShipper™ systems provide high-speed automated package handling and sortation for distribution by carrier. FloShipper is designed specifically for small parcel B2B and B2C applications with multiple carrier options. Each system is tailored to your specific requirements with the most cost-effective components. Installation of each system includes integration with your existing materials handling equipment. FloShipper delivers your parcels to the dock fast and accurately, with major savings in labor cost.

FloShipper includes an industrial grade PC-based control system and user HMI screen. Point-and-click options allow for instant changes as requirements demand. The easy flowchart programming allows your maintenance staff to be independent of 3rd party support. The system interfaces with major shipping management and delivery confirmation software and provides address labels for major carriers.

Peet's Coffee & Tea is a leading custom coffee roaster and beverage outlet. FloStor installed a FloShipper system in their Oakland mail order and ecommerce fulfillment center. The high-speed sortation loop conveyor system enhanced the logistic capabilities of the expanding DC operation.

A pick order is fulfilled by hand and a corresponding bar code label is attached to the box. Based on the information on the bar code, the system verifies that the parcel is within expected weight limits to insure that expected weight is equal to packed weight. Verified parcels are routed to the appropriate shipping lane, and confirmation data is uploaded to the host WMS. The PC controlled system displays provide graphical annunciation of alarming, jam, and motor conditions via the HMI.
