Denco Data's Innovative Solutions Help Speed Mail Order Prescriptions

Overview Thirty miles outside of Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania’s idyllic countryside, is another hotbed of innovation. Denco Data is a data engineering company that specializes in printing system development. Denco’s approach centered on finding a fast, intelligent printer that could do more than print labels. They turned to Intermec’s EasyCoder 501 series. Denco’s solution manages the printing at both ends of the process as well as automates the container’s movement in between. When the data entry system sends down the prescription data, the EasyCoder 501XP prints the label and triggers a Denco-developed plastic transport carrier called a "puck "that has an embedded RFID tag in the base with an encoded serial number. The prescription and the puck are then linked together in the system so as they travel down the conveyor the system automatically knows what actions to take. The Denco system virtually eliminates the need for human intervention until the prescription is ready to be placed in the mailing envelope.
