The ProSort 131 is designed for high-speed sorting of products that may be too small to be sorted on conventional shoe sorters. Small fragile items or groups of items can be sorted easily with the equipment. Products are transported on high strength, anodized aluminum slats. At a predetermined location, divert shoes move diagonally across the conveyor to push the product onto a take-away line. Four widths are available, as are right- or left-hand diverts.

A high-speed sliding shoe sorter simultaneously sorts two parallel lines of totes and other items. Operating at speeds up to 600 feet per minute, the system sorts up to 450 items per minute. Sliding shoes are lined up in the middle of the slat conveyor. Electrical solenoid-operated divert switches interrupt the track at predetermined points to release the needed number of shoes to divert a given package. When items arrive at a sort point, the shoes divert them to either side of the sorter to a takeaway conveyor.

The QuadSorter, an ultra high-rate unit sorter, accommodates over 41,000 items per hour. This four-cells-per-carrier crossbelt sorter offers a flexible sort plan that does not require pre-sortation and significantly increases the throughput of traditional single-cell crossbelt sorters.

It offers traditional crossbelt sorter benefits with the added versatility of simultaneously handling small and large items more efficiently. Each of the belted quad-cell carriers operates independently, in tandem or in a synchronized mode. Sortation logic maximizes carrier loads by laterally transferring smaller items from one cell to another, making the original cell available for a new item.
