It is constituted by a single belt along its entire length. Thanks to its design, different deviations or drivers can be inserted for deviating the product by means of a simultaneous drive that raises and rotates the direction of the boxes so the product can exit the equipment.

Each driver is constituted by two or three rows of belt-driven wheels, that operate when the products is inducted to an exit. It is very important to have motorized “Take Away" exits so that products come out correctly.

 

The design of this equipment allows double-sided exits by placing a position inductor at the entrance of the sorter, which ensures an accurate deviation. In addition, it has an automatic tensioner that allows the belt not to lose tightness; therefore is low-maintenance equipment.

Among the products that can be handled by this sorter are: totes and boxes, provided that they have a rigid surface.
