About Touchless Express Desinfectiekast

Touchless Express is een modulaire desinfectiekast ontworpen voor pakketafhaalpunten. De kast houdt binnenkomende pakketten vast en desinfecteert ze automatisch met een ultraviolette lamp. Gebruikers scannen een code in een mobiele applicatie, waarna de kastdeur zonder fysiek contact opent en sluit. De constructie is gemaakt van stalen platen die worden gesneden en gestanst, en vervolgens behandeld met fosfatering en hogetemperatuur-elektroforetisch spuiten om roest en natuurlijke erosie te weerstaan. De modulaire vorm kan worden aangepast aan de grootte van verschillende expresstations en is eenvoudig te monteren.
