Case Study: Canpar achieves higher read rates and throughput with Datalogic scan tunnels

Canpar boosts read rates by 10% with Datalogic

The customer, Canpar Transport Ltd., is a leading Canadian parcel delivery company facing the challenge of replacing its aging manual scanning system to improve customer service and gain a competitive edge. To transition to automated data collection, Canpar selected vendor Datalogic and its DS8100 material-handling scanners after a competitive evaluation based on cost, read rate, and ease of installation.

Datalogic implemented a scanning tunnel solution using its DS8100 scanners and SC8000 system controllers to automate data collection at multiple hubs. The solution resulted in a 10% increase in read rate compared to hand scanning, allowing Canpar to double the amount of freight scanned. This provided major benefits for the customer, including increased throughput, reduced manpower, better package security, and more accurate tracking, ultimately enhancing their customer service and confidence.
