Today, we would like to share with you 8 facts that you probably didn’t know about the ***[Narrow Belt](http://www.gieicom.com/eng/products/sorters/sorter-narrow-belts) ***sortation system:1.-  The ***Narrow Belt*** ***sorter*** is a great driveline thanks to its multiple belts. It also has a pneumatic automatic tightening that provides operators with an ergonomics handling. 2.- [The Narrow Belt sorter system  ](http://www.gieicom.com/eng/products/sorters/sorter-narrow-belts)is considered as the most energy saving sorter with an easy and economic maintenance. 3.- It supports a work flow from 80 to 120 boxes per minute. 4.- It is one of the most common sorters in the industry because its parallel belts are very close to each other, allowing to install mechanisms between them and create deviations in the multiple exits. 5.- Its work band has great durability. 6.- The exit can be motorized in 30 or 90 degrees intersections. Additionally, a gravity exit can be installed for saving horsepower energy-saving purposes. 7.-The[**Narrow Belt sorter**](http://www.gieicom.com/eng/products/sorters/sorter-narrow-belts)  cannot be misaligned. This is due to the fact that the belts are always in place thanks to the tightening mechanism. 8.- The [**Narrow Belt sorter**](http://www.gieicom.com/eng/products/sorters/sorter-narrow-belts)is an economic, reliable and silent sorter; however, it is important to verify that boxes have an even and rigid bottom and products are not excessively heavy (less than 15 kg preferably) Don’t have a sortation system with errors that can damage your products.
