Cross Belt Sorter
The cross belt sorter is a closed-loop system made of consecutive carriers, each fitted with its own small belt conveyor and running on a rail track. Carriers pick up items at the induction points; when a carrier reaches the assigned destination, its belt moves towards the chute and discharges the item. Discharge is possible to both sides.
It is designed for applications that require high accuracy and fast sorting of items in different sizes, shapes and weights. The system handles items from 5 g up to 35 kg at speeds of up to 2 m/s. Horizontal and vertical (360°) loop versions are available.

How it works
- The item enters the system at an induction point.
- Its barcode or data is read.
- The control software assigns the destination.
- The carrier belt moves when it reaches the destination.
- The item is discharged into the correct chute.
