Mobile Sortation System

● Sortation is the process of identifying items on a conveyor system and

diverting them to specific destinations using a variety of devices controlled by
task-specific software. Sorters are applied to different applications depending
upon the product type and the required rate.
● There are two major types of sortation case level and unit sortation. The
technologies available to handle each type of sortation fall into two primary
types of sortation systems: linear and loop (also known as circular) sortation
systems.
 Characterstics
● Fragility of the materials to be handled
● Product geometry (size, weight)
● Materials (bags, cartons, envelopes)
● Flat bottoms or uneven bottoms
● Rate considerations
● Function of the sorter (packing, routing, shipping)
● Sound level
● Available footprint
 Uses
