Case Study: Canpar achieves 10% higher read rates with Datalogic automated scanning tunnels

Datalogic assists Canpar Transport ltd. in transitioning to automated data collection

Canpar Transport, a leading Canadian parcel delivery company, faced the challenge of replacing its aging manual scanning system to improve customer service and maintain its competitive edge. To automate data collection in its highly space-constrained hubs, the company sought a solution and chose vendor Datalogic after a competitive evaluation based on cost, read rate, and ease of installation.

Datalogic implemented its DS8100 material-handling scanners and SC8000 system controllers to create automated scanning tunnels. This solution provided a 10% increase in read rates compared to the previous hand-scanning method and doubled the amount of freight that could be processed. The results for Canpar included increased throughput, reduced manpower requirements, and more accurate package tracking, all of which significantly enhanced customer service and operational efficiency.
