Sortation Solutions EFFICIENT, ACCURATE PRODUCT FLOW FROM RECEIVING TO SHIPPING

Sortation Solutions EFFICIENT, ACCURATE PRODUCT FLOW FROM RECEIVING TO SHIPPING Increasing volumes, shorter processing times, and rising operational costs are driving the use case. Every day, distribution centers and hubs worldwide have the task of sorting millions of different loads according to their destinations. Order fulfillment accounts for up to 90% of distribution center cost. It is often a labor-intensive task that requires a combination of good system design, excellent process management and the optimal interface between staff, technology, and information technology. Productivity,...

Sorting Technology for Every Application DESIGNED FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE Activity profile analysis and solution development engineering creates the appropriate solution for your application. APPLICATION EXPERIENCE We have a team of solution architects who seek to understand the operational requirements of each application. Previous project experience enables us to focus on the development of system designs that meet and exceed your business goals. Dematic provides an analysis of your data to determine the ideal system layout to support the operational requirements of the distribution center,...

Sorting Systems LINEAR AND CIRCULAR CONFIGURATIONS LINEAR SORTATION Linear systems consists of Steerable Wheel, Horizontal Belt, Narrow Belt, and Sliding Shoe Sorters and share these common elements: • Merge: Facilitates a steady flow of loads • Induction: Creates minimum gaps between loads and maximizes the flow onto the sorter • Sorter: Diverts items to one or two sides • Take-away: Moves items away from the sorter • Controls: Tracks items and ensures accurate diverting Pre-Merge Accumulation Induction Merge Scan Tunnel Take-away CIRCULAR SORTATION Circular systems consist of Split-Tray...

Sortation Controls MODULAR ARCHITECTURE SUPPORTS FUNCTION SPECIFIC STRATEGY The Integrated Sort System Controller manages the entire sortation system including pre-merge accumulation, merge, induct, sort, and take-away. It is managed and controlled as one integrated machine with a single point user interface. The tasks performed include carton gapping, scanning, divert control, and accountability. Automatic speed control allows the entire system to speed up or slow down depending on the amount of activity on the system. SORTER SOFTWARE • Provides strategic transport & sortation of bar coded...

Merge & Induction OPTIMIZE INBOUND FLOW AND MAXIMIZE THROUGHPUT Merge High Rate Merge The merge coordinates and monitors all infeed and funneling functions to ensure constant product flow. Cartons are consolidated and moved from the merge area onto the induction conveyor leading to the sorter. Multiple lines are consolidated onto a single output conveyor. Modular design Minimum gap between slug release Mid to high rate versions Single output conveyor Automatic speed control Induction Single Line Induct Precise gapping High throughput Product stability and safety User interface and...

Cartons accumulate and merge prior to induction to the sorter. Batch picked items are manually inducted onto the Crossbelt Sorter. Cases, bags, and envelopes can be automatically inducted onto the Crossbelt Sorter. 7

Split-Tray Sorter FOR ORDER CONSOLIDATION APPLICATIONS THE DESIGN The Split-Tray Sorter is most often implemented as a batch pick and sort solution for order consolidation. It serves as a method that brings multiple pieces of a customer order to a single point. In addition, the Split-Tray Sorter can be used as a returns processing solution or can be configured as an outbound shipping sorter that handles small cartons, envelopes and bags. Sort destinations may represent retail stores, e-com orders, postal codes, parcel carriers, etc. Key Attributes: Single item sorting Automatic scanning...

The Split-Tray Sorter enables high rate sorting of single items. Apparel items are sorted into a plastic tote by the Split-Tray Sorter. 9

Crossbelt Sorter FOR ORDER CONSOLIDATION, INTERLINK, CROSSDOCK & SHIPPING APPLICATIONS THE DESIGN Items to be sorted are tracked and controlled through the induction, transport, and off-load process with precision. The items are sent to different destinations according to the business rules established for each application. The bar code on each item is scanned — a “look up” table in the Dematic iQ software is referenced to determine offload location. Alternatively, the sort controller can directly link to a host system for real-time destination confirmation. Single item sorting Cells...

The Crossbelt Sorter functions as a shipping sorter. The Crossbelt Sorter diverts apparel in poly bags to order consolidation chutes. Apparel items in poly bags are sorted by a Crossbelt Sorter to chutes and then packed. E-Commerce orders in bags sort to chutes. The double-cell Crossbelt Sorter moves through a scan tunnel. 11

Narrow Belt Sorter FOR ALL FUNCTIONAL AREAS OF THE WAREHOUSE The Narrow Belt Sorter is the ideal mid-rate sorting and diverting system for maximizing the flow in and out of the functional areas of the warehouse. Typical applications include: • Receiving sorter • Inbound/outbound flow to automated storage system • Inbound/outbound flow to work stations • Zone route order fulfillment • Shipping sorter The Narrow Belt Sorter is a modular, scalable, and flexible technology that enables ease of reconfiguration and repositioning to accommodate future operational changes and growth. It has a...

Modular Conveyor System Sorter & Diverter FOR LOW-TO-MID RATE APPLICATIONS The Modular Conveyor System is an integrated package conveyor technology with a wide range of modules to create a highly efficient material flow configuration. For sorting functionality, the Modular Conveyor System suite of modules includes a Steerable Wheel Sorter and a Horizontal Belt Diverter. The Steerable Wheel Sorter handles loads with a flat bottom surface. A series of sorter wheels rotate in synchronization to re-direct the load to a take-away conveyor. The Horizontal Belt Diverter is used when a positive...
