Lundrigo Unveils Automated Clothing Shipment System Customized for Each Customer View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Uisikju Company (CEO Jo Seong-woo) announced on the 1st that it has developed an automatic garment shipping system for each customer and applied it to the non-face-to-face mobile laundry service 'Laundrigo' smart factory.


The garment automatic shipping system (GAPS) is a system where tens of thousands of individual garments that have completed washing move along a conveyor and are automatically sorted and shipped according to customer orders.


The garment automatic shipping system was designed and developed by Laundrigo using its own IT technology for the entire operating system. This year, Uisikju Company acquired the American laundry company A-Plus Machinery and collaborated with a Japanese conveyor company to install hardware, conducting a Korea-US-Japan project centered on Laundrigo, which bore fruit within one year of project initiation.


Through this, Laundrigo has become capable of independently handling everything from smart laundry factory design to procurement, distribution, and construction of laundry equipment. It is evaluated as a success in vertically integrating the entire value chain of the world's top-level laundry service. In particular, through this automatic shipping system, it is possible to process more than 3,000 pieces per hour and laundry for about 400 households in real time, increasing shipping efficiency by more than 300% compared to before.


Laundrigo is currently applying for domestic and international patents for the customer-specific garment automatic shipping system it developed. It is expected that this technology and system can be expanded to related fields such as the laundry industry and the global fashion industry. In the future, in addition to the automatic shipping system, it plans to enter the development of laundry equipment such as washing machines, dryers, dry cleaning machines, and the construction of smart laundry factories in major overseas cities.



Jo Seong-woo, CEO of Uisikju Company, said, "We will introduce a smart factory with world-class competitiveness through proprietary technology, not an abstract concept of a smart factory. With the successful development of this automatic shipping system, we will use it as a leap point to change the future laundry market and invest in efforts to secure global source technology."
