End of Sorter

APPLICATION 02

End-of-Sorter

End-of-Sorter

End-of-Sorter

Multiple branches sorted and directly palletized from a single system

At the end of your sorter, shipments land for half a dozen carriers. Instead of a separate palletizing station for each or manual labor, a Cable Robot Palletizer handles up to 8 branches.

THE CHALLENGE

Sorting chutes require dedicated personnel.

At the end of each sorter line, manual palletizing and sorting takes place: numerous discharge points, fluctuating volumes, high cycle rates. Conventional palletizers typically cover only a single discharge point.

THE SYSTEM

One system for all branches.

The Cable Robot Palletizer accesses 2 to 8 discharge points from a single cell, palletizing according to any specified criteria, down to the postal code level if required.

PROCESS FLOW

In four steps.

In four steps.

01

Picking

Retrieve shipments at the sorter discharge, across all branches.

02

Assign

Determine the destination per package.
