Executives of Accu-Sort® Systems, Inc. will discuss print-and-apply labeling and camera bar-code scanner capabilities at the North American Material Handling & Logistics Show (NA 2010) in Cleveland, Ohio, at the I-X Center, April 26–29. NA 2010, which is sponsored by the Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA) organization, will include an Accu-Sort seminar titled "Three Ways to Grow Your Distribution Center Using an Affordable Print and Apply System." Accu-Sort labeling systems help distribution centers expand capacity without adding labor and reduce costs by increasing accuracy.

The company’s FAST Label® print-and-apply system will be exhibited in booth #1418, in addition to several enhancements to its AccuVision® AV6010 camera bar-code scanner that increase sorting accuracy and reduce cost by avoiding mis-shipments and manual handling.
Improving distribution efficiency and reducing labor costs are especially important in a tough economy. Spending wisely on material handling automation will not only improve current profitability but also provide a boost in capacity that will make warehouse operations more competitive as the economy recovers. Accu-Sort’s seminar and exhibits at NA 2010 will demonstrate how its hardware and software for laser and camera bar-code scanner systems, print-and-apply label applicators, sortation, and dimensioning help achieve the following benefits:
Automated Receiving. Throughput can be increased by up to 66 percent with Accu-Sort’s FAST Label print-and-apply systems, which enable cross-docking and other automated receiving strategies.
Picking Accuracy. Accu-Sort bar-code readers minimize picking errors that create hard-to-track losses by comparing a shipping label to the product bar code.
Diagnostic Tools. The AccuVision® AV6010 bar-code camera reduces the need for manual handling of no-read labels. It can capture images of every no-read label for root cause analysis. When combined with Accu-Sort software, this camera makes it easy to monitor equipment and line performance.
