Parcel+Post Expo is the leading trade fair for services, software, products and tools for the CEP industry. 2022 was the successful premiere for Variocube at this trade fair format. Over three days, we informed interested visitors about innovations in the areas of hardware & software for smart locker systems.
Turnkey software applications for numerous use cases.
The wide range and variety of software solutions for the most diverse use cases aroused great interest among many visitors. Apart from the parcel shipping solution offered by numerous co-exhibitors, Variocube applications for mailroom services, click & collect, day-lockers, dry cleaners, rental and return stations were very popular. What was often positively noted: The combinability of the different applications on one locker system. In this way, customers get a versatile solution for numerous requirements.
Making mailroom service more efficient - LogisticCube as an opportunity for improved processes.
Efficient, time-saving and flexible internal mail, parcel and goods dispatch is the be-all and end-all for many companies. At Parcel+PostExpo, we presented our LogisticCube software to a broad audience for the first time. The market feedback showed us the relevance of the topic and that there is a definite need for new solutions in internal mail distribution, especially with shared desks and the increased use of home offices. LogsiticCube is exactly in this vein and enables a flexible, time-dependent transfer of all kinds of mail. Read more about it here.
Integrator kit as a smart locker with little effort, especially for cabinet builders.
With the Integrator Kit, we showed other locker and office furniture manufacturers how they can offer smart locker systems without electronics and software know-how. This is done in different integration depths starting with software & cloud only up to the use of the complete electronics.
KeyLine & MicroLine as hardware innovations.
Our newly developed locker systems, which are designed for more specific areas of application than our previous ProLine locker modules, also celebrated their premiere.
KeyLine was specially designed for handing over vehicle keys and documents. Due to robust drawers and the sophisticated construction inside, the KeyLine key safes are extremely resistant to forced entry. This coupled with a timeless, simple design and the software applications already available (with possible interfaces in vehicle rental systems etc.) are a way for car dealerships, car workshops or rental vehicle providers to make key handovers smarter.
The MicroLine locker modules expand our product portfolio with a compact system for wall mounting. These modules are particularly suitable for handing over smaller parcels or items such as books, documents, folders etc.. Since we use the same electronic components for control in all locker series, MircoLine and ProLine can be combined with each other. This makes possible combinations of locker hardware even more flexible and optimised to the customer's benefit. In addition, four different locker sizes are available from the MicroLine.
The show must go on - MobileLine for trade fair and event organisers.
Our most mobile solution: The VC MobileLine was developed for the needs of event and trade fair organisers. Modules mounted on castors allow for quick, flexible use at many different locations. Organisers can react flexibly to guest numbers and reduce queues at the cloakrooms through a booking portal accessible in advance.
Our conclusion:
Three intensive days with new impressions, positive market feedback and numerous visitors give us an optimistic outlook for 2023 and show that our developments strike a chord with the times.
