Detailed information about the product Medium Speed Sortation

As distribution operations grow in size and complexity, sortation requirements generally expand. Medium rate sortation technologies are available when rates between 30 and 100 items per minute are requires to be sorter in a shipping/distribution operation.

Pop-Up Wheel Sorters
Pop-up wheel sorters can be utilized when rates are moderate and the product has a flat conveying surface. Products must be fairly uniform in size, as products that are too long or short will not divert consistently. Typical rates are 20-60 sorts per minute. Products are diverted at a 30° or 45° angle on relatively close centers allowing for compact location of divert lanes.

Mulitple Belt Sorters
The multiple belt sorter falls between the pop-up wheel and shoe sorters in both rate and cost. Capable of sort rates of up to 100 products per minute, the multiple belt sorter can sort at either 30° or 90° angles. 30° diverts are capable of higher rates, while 90° diverts allow for really close spacing of divert lanes to minimize floor space.
