Intralox Omni-Directional Sorter

Intralox’s Omni-Directional Sorter is capable of both receiving products from any direction and then sorting them in any direction at high rates within a compact footprint.

The sorter was developed for zone picking (or ‘pick and pass’) applications where items must be sorted to manual picking areas and then merged back onto the same conveyor.  Another application of the product is single-level infeed/outfeed to automated storage and retrieval systems at rates above 3600 cases or totes per hour.

This technology sorts at any angle at very high rates within a compact footprint. It can also provide value in other applications because it can sort backwards; selectively rotate products; reorient or align items; and position packages in rows and columns all on one machine. While these functions can currently be performed using multiple existing technologies, the Intralox sorter performs all functions on one machine.  

The sorter handles various types of packages, cases, and other conveyable objects.
