B2K
is the innovative automated system by Metalprogetti
for the management, drop-off for uniform distribution.
For many years this has been the preferred
solution for
industries, hospitals, large hotels and other
organizations for its numerous logistical
and economic benefits.
First of all, it solves traditional problems
related to the static and manual storage and
uniform distribution of hanging garments:
the B2K system eliminates
all of the errors that this type of management
can generate, allowing organizations to optimize
both their available space and improve employee
performance.
What’s more, changes in organizational
models and the evolution of the labour market
have made it necessary to identify every piece
of professional work wear with a unique code,
microchip or bar code, to diminish service
costs and guarantee compliance with hygienic
standards.
Thanks to the system’s software logic,
B2K by Metalprogetti
is capable of managing the movement,
drop-off and return of individual garments.
This software can be adapted based on the
machine’s use and the characteristics
of the service (personalized, by size or a
combination of the two).
MAIN FEATURES
A typical B2K system consists
of:
- one or more clean garment pick-up doors
- one or more dirty garment drop-off doors
- one or more conveyors
- software management system
B2K is
completely modular: its elements have been
designed to build systems with various degrees
of complexity, custom configured based on
the client’s needs.
It is also possible to install only single
components of the system, or different combinations
of these. The system can also be expanded
at any time to serve an increased number of
users.
Dirty garment
drop-off doors
- There is no need for the user to identify
themselves. Each door recognizes the garment
deposited and automatically updates the
user’s credit.
- he system can also sort the items into
three different categories through the pneumatic
evacuation system.
- Complete control over the uniform inventory:
the user can retrieve clean garments only
after they have returned dirty garments
that have been codified and received by
the system.
Clean garment
dispensing doors
- One or more doors dispense garments that
are ready for use with different system
configurations based on the organization’s
needs, the company’s size or the type
of organization being served.
- Simple and intuitive operation thanks
to a multi-lingual touch screen.
- The return process is now even quicker
thanks to Metalprogetti’s
exclusive patent: the extraction of garments
in movement.
Loading clean
garments onto the conveyor
There are three different ways to load the conveyor,
depending on the configuration:
- manual
- automatic one-way operation
- automatic two-way operation
B2K allows
garments to be loaded in no specific order,
with no need to select them before or during
the loading process. Garments are identified
and loaded in one single location: then the
system will sort the garments automatically
as requested. A single loading device means
savings in terms of both space and maintenance.
The system’s
software
The software management system allows the
B2K system to operate at
its full potential:
- Plans the arrangement of the garments
in the system
- Regulates the movement of the garments
- Determines daily stock needs
- Updates the credit status of each user
- Optimizes the purchasing of new uniforms
- Generates statistical reports
