Sortation Solutions

Sortation systems utilise advanced technology, including barcode scanners, to identify products based on pre-programmed criteria such as size or type, directing them to their appropriate locations. These systems can be customised to your warehouse’s specific requirements, incorporating robots, conveyors, and other automated equipment to optimise operations and enhance efficiency.

Key Applications for Sortation Systems: 

  • Sorting unit picks into orders: Efficiently consolidate individual items into complete customer orders, reducing processing time and improving accuracy
  • Sorting orders into despatch groups: Organise completed orders by delivery routes, carriers, or shipping priorities to streamline the despatch process
