Automated labeling improves shipping efficiencies

Thomas & Betts, Bromont, Quebec, Canada, is a leading manufacturer of an expansive range of electrical products and components (for example, conduits, couplings, fittings, wiring ducts, signal boxes, sockets, and switch gears). To help improve shipping efficiencies for their vast range of items, Thomas & Betts decided to install new state-of-the-art automated labeling systems.

Under the old labeling system, T&B scanned order “license plates” to generate pack slips that were manually inserted into the shipping cases or into film envelopes attached by hand to the exterior sides of the cases. The shipping case delivery address labels also were manually applied. T&B wanted a faster, more reliably accurate labeling approach that was less labor-intensive.

On the recommendation of VisuaScan, Inc., Thomas & Betts found the Model 3600 STAF Packing List and Shipping Label All-in-One fully automated system supplied by CTM Labeling Systems.
