To improve the picking, sorting and distribution processes, making them faster, better and more efficient. In short: save costs and optimize customer satisfaction. Handle both inbound, outbound, returns and cross-docking with one system. Additionally, eliminating errors, achieving higher throughput (up to 38,000 i.p.h.), and saving costs by accomplishing (much) more with fewer FTEs. 

The sorter operates based on barcodes. The order lists are input into the system, and each order is assigned its exit. The sorter is loaded manually, automatically, or with a robotic arm, ensuring the barcode is always readable. The barcode is scanned by the sorter, enabling the system to recognize the product. Based on an order list, the sorter determines to which exit a product should be ejected or pushed out.

The largest size we can handle is 600 x 800 mm with a weight of 13 kg.

The sorting capacity varies based on the sorter type, speed, and length. Our sorters can handle between 8,600 and 38,000 u.p.h., with smaller packaging enabling higher capacity.

The picking process shifts from single-item picking to batch picking. Instead of picking each order separately, all orders for a specific product are now picked at once and automatically sorted.
