  • By Sundeep Bandi

Have you ever wondered how the e-commerce industries can deliver your orders accurately? Have you wondered how these specific companies can manage thousands of orders with such precision and speed?
Well, thanks to the Sorting conveyor system!!!

Sortation is the process of identifying items on a conveyor system and diverting them to a specific destination within an operation.

 There are many types of sorting conveyors. Linear sorter is one of them

Working of Linear Sorter

When the products move on the belt, a preloaded sensor reads the product’s barcode and transfers the details to the central network where all operations are registered. The machine instructs a particular arm to arrange the object on the conveyor. Each of the goods is sorted for distribution. The conveyor does the sorting by different inputs such as height, depending on the destination. Sorter arms change their velocity when sorting them according to the material form and quality.

  • Low maintenance costs
  • Automatic loading of particular items
  • Automatic weight registration
  • Sorting and grading the product by shape and size
  • Improved order accuracy

Things to keep in mind while selecting any sorting conveyor:

  1. Type of products to be sorted
  2. Throughput rate

Type of products to be sorted:

We need to be sure what are the types of products to be sorted; whether they are in cartons, package because depending on the material, the arm sorters will adjust their speed so that no damage should happen. Dimensions of the box are also measured. 

Throughputrate:

In industries, the rate of products to be sorted per minute or per hour basis is measured to increase the efficiency in the future.
