Your Van Riet installation responds to your order flow in real time.
Core connects to existing Van Riet installations and drives lanes, pushers and scan points directly, from the same flows as your orders. The mechanical installation stays; only the control changes.
Lanes, pushers and scanners respond to the order flow
The order sets the destination
A scan point reads a parcel, Core knows which order it belongs to and the belt hears within the same cycle where to send it. No queue between knowing and acting.
Lanes, pushers and diverts
Pushers, diverts and lifts are driven from the flow itself. Change the order and the destination on the line changes with it.
Every station reports back
Every movement reports back, with execution times per step down to the millisecond. You see the pinch point before the line stops.
Faults in the same log
Manual actions and faults land in the same log as your orders, with the order and the station attached.
How the integration works
We do not replace your installation. Core takes over control from the layer that can no longer keep up and connects to what is there: lanes, pushers, scan points and label printers on your existing Van Riet line.
The sorting rules then live in flows, not in the control cabinet. A peak, a new customer or an extra station is added in the flow, not in a months-long project.
Connection
To existing Van Riet installations, without replacing anything.
Driven
Lanes, pushers, diverts, lifts and scan points.
Direction
Instructions to the line, feedback per station back.
Pace
Real time: the belt hears where a parcel goes within the same cycle as the scan.
Changes
Sorting rules live in flows, not in the control cabinet.
In production
At W.K. Heyl Jr. among others, in the same workflow as CaptureTech voice picking.
The questions we get most about the Van Riet integration
Three questions we hear in nearly every first conversation.
Does our Van Riet installation have to be replaced?
No. We connect Core to existing installations and only take over control from the layer that can no longer keep up. Lanes, pushers and scan points stay; the rules move to flows you can change yourself.
How real time is the control really?
A scan point reads a parcel and the belt hears within the same cycle where to send it. The destination is decided per parcel on the order as it stands at that moment, and every movement reports back down to the millisecond.
Where is this running in production?
At W.K. Heyl Jr., Core drives kilometres of Van Riet conveyor in real time, with CaptureTech voice picking inside the same workflow and no layer in between. Everything is coordinated from the platform.
The line is already running at W.K. Heyl Jr.
Is your Van Riet line falling behind your orders?
We will walk your floor with you for a day. After that you know what the existing installation can still do.
