Sortation System

Sortation System

A sorter is a system which performs sortation of products (goods, luggage, mail, etc.) according to their destinations. 

Different technologies can be selected to meet the different speed and capacity requirements e.g. pivot wheels, cross belt, etc.

 

4 benefits of sorter are:

  • Increased worker productivity
  • Accurate order processing
  • Improved process visibility
  • Improved working conditions for warehouse operators

 


 


Cross Belt Sorting System

Crossbelt sorter is a high speed and high accuracy sortation system made up of a chain of bi-directional mini-conveyors. It features to provide crucial gains in productivity with benefits such as high sorting throughput for a vast range of products, higher precision, gentle and safe sortation according to destinations.

 

Benefits:

  • Sorting accuracy up to 99.9%
  • Productivity 6x Increment
  • Increased worker productivity
  • Accurate order processing
  • Improved process visibility
  • Improved working conditions for warehouse operators

 


 

CASE STUDY 1

 

Project Background:

Following the success of automation projects for HKTVmall's flagship distribution center in previous years, BPS Global is proud to cooperate with HKTVmall again in 2019 to drive the development of logistics technology solutions. Equipped with a customized automatic crossbelt sorter system including concept and layout design, application as well as continued technical support and maintenance, can further improve efficiency and meet the demands from high value-added logistics services.

 

The automatic sorter system helps to increase productivity, improve accuracy of order processing and the working environment of warehouse operators. First, the barcode labels on the parcels will be scanned by the scanning system, parcels will be delivered and distributed to the designated delivery points by the sorters basing on the embedded business rules. The sorters are designed to handle throughputs around 13,000 items per hour on average and sort a wide range of products from large parcels down to small items, to different delivery points with an accuracy rate of 99%.

 

An automatic sorter system performs sortation of products (goods, luggage, mail, etc.) according to their destinations. Special equipment can be selected to meet different speed and capacity requirements. At BPS, we are able to supply a wide range of automatic sorting systems and provide the most suitable solution for high efficiency in the logistics operational process.
