[QUOTE="Northbaypkg, post: 2380660, member: 58387"] Clearly you're not talking about preload. For 175k you'd need like 1000 routes. We average about 16k a day with about 55 routes. Anyhow to the OP I doubt it'll make the preload faster. When they automated our building they promised all this amazing stuff also: much less misroutes, no bad pals, faster preload sort, preload able to run independently of night sort preventing late starts, etc. So far NONE of those promises came true. There are the same number of misroutes, maybe even more since the automated system blows incorrect pal labels a lot more than the human sorters used to. Night sort routinely runs into preload and causes preload to start late. A lot of packages that used to be able to go straight on the belt now has to be handled as irregs since the automated system can't handle flat packages, rugs, anything over 50lbs, and certain others. The only thing the automated building does better is process smells a lot faster. So don't expect much to change. As a matter of fact, it might get worse. [/QUOTE]
