Regional Distribution Centers Parcel Sorting System Crossbelt Sorter High Performance

Regional Distribution Centers Cross Belt Sorter Lower Operational Costs

The Realkey Cross Belt Sorter represents a state-of-the-art solution for efficiently handling various items, including parcels and cartons. This sophisticated system integrates key components such as tracks, carts, cart belts, recognition systems, and communication technologies. The carts are arranged in a continuous chain along the track, moving parallel to create a mainline that intersects with the cart belts, giving rise to the term "Cross Belt Sorter." Items can be loaded onto the cart belts either manually or automatically. As the carts approach designated sorting stations, the control system activates the belts to ensure precise sorting.

Available in two configurations—circular and linear—cross belt sorters are designed for high performance. Circular models can achieve sorting speeds of up to 2 meters per second, managing as many as 22,000 items per hour. Linear configurations, which operate in a straight line, can reach speeds of up to 1.5 meters per second and process up to 8,000 items per hour. These systems are widely adopted in industries that require high throughput and multiple sorting directions, including express delivery, e-commerce, apparel, food services, cosmetics, airports, and pharmaceuticals.

Technical Parameters

Application

Postal and Express Delivery

Cross belt sorting machines are extensively utilized in regional distribution centers, transfer stations, and medium to large branches of postal and express delivery companies. These facilities handle significant sorting volumes and require automated solutions for efficient operations. With increasing sorting demands and rising labor costs, cross belt sorters—particularly linear models—have become favored for their compact and flexible designs.

E-Commerce and Global Trade

The rapid expansion of e-commerce has resulted in a dramatic increase in parcel volumes during peak shopping seasons. Cross belt sorting machines provide effective sorting solutions that meet the diverse needs of various markets during these critical times. They find applications in industries such as tobacco, fashion, maternity products, supermarkets, and pharmaceuticals.

Advantages

Intelligent Vision Systems
REALKEY cross belt sorting machines can be equipped with advanced vision inspection technology to meet specific user requirements. This capability allows for real-time monitoring and fault detection of each operational cart. Carts experiencing issues are isolated to prevent further parcel circulation, and timely alerts are sent to users, reducing operational disruptions (requires automatic feeding stations).

Enhanced Cart Linkage Technology
Leveraging REALKEY's advanced recognition systems and programming algorithms, the sorter enables the simultaneous transport of smaller parcels with a single cart, while larger parcels are sorted using two carts. This feature supports handling items up to 1.2 meters long without sacrificing efficiency or incurring additional costs, greatly broadening the equipment's application range.

Automated Maintenance Management
Through the operating interface, users can issue maintenance commands for specific carts, allowing those carts to autonomously navigate to designated maintenance stations. This automation reduces the need for manual oversight and significantly improves maintenance efficiency.

Proven Durability
With 17 years of experience in the logistics and automated sorting industry, REALKEY provides unmatched expertise in developing tailored sorting solutions. Our products are renowned for their robustness and reliability, establishing us as a trusted partner for all sorting needs.
