About Touchless Express Disinfection Cabinet

Touchless Express is a modular disinfection cabinet designed for parcel pickup stations. The cabinet holds incoming parcels and disinfects them automatically with an ultraviolet lamp. Users scan a code in a mobile application, and the cabinet door opens and closes without physical contact. The structure is made of steel plates that are cut and punched, then treated with phosphating and high-temperature electrophoretic spraying to resist rust and natural erosion. The modular form can be adapted to the size of different express stations and is easy to assemble.

Production Technology: This product is made of steel plate material that is initially cut into various sizes using a shearing machine to cut rolled steel plates. Based on the position of different components, a specific punching machine mold is used to treat it. To prevent premature ageing and rusting during the use of intelligent courier cabinets, a surface treatment process is applied that uses phosphating treatment to eliminate grease and rust from the surface. After that, the surface undergoes high-temperature electrophoretic spraying to enhance its resistance to natural erosion. Additionally, the product features a UV disinfection function and can be remotely controlled via an app.
Design Challenge: In the initial definition of material use, in the aluminum alloy, steel and other metal materials to consider the use of that material to use as the main material, and finally because of the consideration of the natural erosion ability plus the external environmental factors selected steel as the main material.
In addition, in order to prevent intelligent courier cabinets in the use of premature aging rust, surface treatment process using pickling phosphate treatment, the surface of the grease, rust to remove clean, but also in the surface of the high-temperature electrophoresis spraying process to improve anti-rust problem. Make the practicality of the product in terms of production costs, environmental response to enhance.
Research: n the post-epidemic period, people have become increasingly conscious of the significance of disinfection. While taking express parcels is an essential part of people's lives, it is easy to overlook the disinfection aspect of receiving parcels, and express delivery has also contributed to the spread of several epidemics.

Inspiration: After the epidemic, people have become more conscious of the significance of disinfection. Taking delivery of express parcels is an essential part of people's routine, however, it is effortless to overlook the disinfection aspect of receiving parcels. Many epidemics have been spread due to express delivery, as the transportation process can conveniently carry viruses, causing indirect transmission.
Project Duration: Project duration: 4 months
Location: Jilin, China
Operation Flow: Users use the APP to scan the code to pick up the goods, the door of the express cabinet can automatically open and close to avoid contact, and those delivery will be disinfected in time.
