Product catalog summary
Introduction
The BG Line Sorter is a next-generation logistic system that combines the simplicity of a line sorter with the gentle handling capabilities of a high-speed cross-belt sorter. This innovation sets a new benchmark for mid-size-volume parcel and material handling.

Active Cross-Belt Technology
The system introduces BEUMER Group’s unique cross-belt technology, allowing it to handle a wide range of items. Its modular design ensures flexibility, space optimization, and scalability for future growth.

High Modularity and Flexibility
Replacing conventional sliding shoe discharge mechanisms with textured belts and electronic cross-belt discharge technology, the BG Line Sorter can handle items from small polybags to large duct-taped shipments. This reduces non-conveyable items, lowering handling costs and increasing profitability.

Space-Efficient and Scalable Design
The modular structure allows for easy reconfiguration, repositioning, or expansion to meet changing business needs. Each unit is pre-assembled and tested, ensuring quick installation and commissioning.

Proven Technology and Efficiency
Utilizing cross-belt technology and Linear Synchronous Motors (LSMs), the BG Line Sorter offers durable belts and maintenance-free motors, reducing energy consumption and maintenance costs.

Ultra-Low Wear-and-Tear
The system boasts low maintenance levels, high reliability, and system availability, contributing to lower Product Life-Cycle Costs. It operates with low acoustic noise, enhancing workplace safety.

Easy, Scalable, Reliable, and Maintainable
The system features industry-standard software and controls, allowing for easy module addition or transition to advanced solutions. Service accessibility is enhanced by minimal moving parts and straightforward access to components.

Sorter Controls
The scalable control system architecture integrates with host systems, providing access to vital management information. It supports Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), Material Flow Control (MFC), and Warehouse Control Systems (WCS).

Automation and Scalability
The BG Line Sorter is scalable in size and system integration, allowing for comprehensive automation in parcel hubs or warehouses. This flexibility helps operators reduce costs and adapt to changing volumes.

Specifications
- Handles parcels, flats, totes, sacks, sealed bags, polybags, fragile, and high-friction items.
