Automatic sorting system is one of the necessary facilities in advanced distribution center. It has high sorting efficiency, usually can sort 6000-12000 boxes of goods per hour; It can be said that automatic sorting machine is a key factor to improve the efficiency of logistics distribution.

Automatic sorting system three characteristics

【1】Able to sort goods continuously and in large quantities

Due to using automatic used in mass production assembly line, automatic sorting system is not affected by the climate, the limitation of time, people's physical, etc, can run continuously, at the same time, due to the time of automatic sorting system unit quantity of sorting, the sorting ability of automatic sorting system is the continuous running 100 hours, 7000 per hour sorting packing goods, If you use manual, you can only sort about 150 pieces per hour. At the same time, sorting personnel can not work continuously for 8 hours under such labor intensity.　　

【2】The sorting error rate is extremely low

Automatic sorting system of sorting error size mainly depends on the accuracy of the information input by sorting size, which in turn depends on the sorting information input mechanisms, if using artificial keyboard input or voice recognition way, the error rate over 3%, such as using barcode scanning input, unless the bar code printing itself have a mistake, otherwise it will not go wrong. Therefore, the current automatic sorting system mainly uses bar code technology to identify goods.　　

【3】The sorting operation is basically unmanned

One of the purposes of the establishment of automatic sorting system abroad is to reduce the use of personnel, reduce the labor intensity of workers, improve the use efficiency of personnel, so the automatic sorting system can minimize the use of personnel, basically achieve unmanned.

Here is the main type of sorting machine:

There are seven types of sorting machines

1 Cross belt sorter

There are many types of cross belt sorting machine, usually more common for a car double belt type, that is, a car above the two vertical belt, can each belt to move a package can also be two belt together to move a package.

In the case of two belts together to move a package, the direction of the package and the direction of the sorting machine can be pre-acted through the direction of the two belts to reduce the spacing requirements of the gage.

The advantages of cross belt sorting machine is low noise, a wide range of goods can be sorted, through the bilateral package pass mouth optimization can achieve a single maximum capacity of about 20,000 pieces per hour. 　　

2 Disk sorting machine

Disk sorting machines, which sort out parcels by tilting pallets, are also used in the express industry, but are more commonly used in the field of airport baggage sorting. It has a maximum capacity of 12,000 pieces per hour. Standard plate sorting machine is composed of wooden tray, tilting device, bottom frame, tilting is divided into mechanical tilting and electric tilting two kinds.

3 Slider type sorting machine

Slider type sorting machine is also a special form of plate conveyor. The surface of the conveyor is composed of metal strip or pipe, such as bamboo mat, and on each strip or pipe there is a guide slider made of hard materials, which can slide horizontally along the strip.

Slider to stop on the side of the conveyor at ordinary times, the slider is the lower part of the pin and the plate, guide bar connection through computer control, when sorting the goods arrived at designated crossings, the controller to guide slider orderly with automatic conveyor the opposite side of the slide, push the goods sorting crossings, and goods can be lead to the main conveyor. This way is the side of the commodity gradually launched, does not impact the commodity, so the commodity is not easy to damage, it is suitable for the shape and size of the sorting of goods is wider, is a new type of high speed sorting machine abroad.　　

Slider sorting machine is also a sorting machine used in the express industry is very much. Slider sorter is a very reliable sorter with a very low failure rate in large distribution centers. Slider type sorting machine can be multiple cross-overlapping up to meet the single slider type sorting machine can not achieve the purpose of the ability to meet the requirements.　　

4 Baffle sorting machine　

Baffle sorting machine is the use of a baffle (bar) block the goods moving forward on the conveyor, will guide the goods to the side of the chute discharge. The other form of baffle is that one end of the baffle serves as a fulcrum and can be rotated. Baffle action, like a wall to block the goods to move forward, the use of the friction of the conveyor to promote the goods, so that the goods along the surface of the baffle and move, from the main conveyor discharged to the slide. Usually baffle in the main conveyor side, can let the goods continue to move forward; If the baffle moves laterally or rotates, the goods will be discharged to the chute.

Baffle is generally installed on both sides of the conveyor, and the conveyor plane is not in contact, even in the operation is only contact with goods and do not touch the conveyor surface, so it is applicable to most forms of conveyor. As far as the baffle itself is concerned, there are different forms, such as linear and curved, and some are equipped with rollers or smooth plastic materials on the baffle working surface to reduce friction resistance.

5 Tape surface sorting machine

This sorting structure is used on the roller main conveyor, where two or more tapes or a single chain, which are driven by power, are installed laterally below the main conveying rollers. When the sorting machine structure accepts the instruction to start the inch, the tape or chain is lifted up to contact the bottom of the goods, and the goods are lifted to the main conveyor hungry side.

6 Roller surface sorting machine

The sorting mechanism for main roller drum or chain conveyor, there will one or several dynamic Jane installed in the main diagonal roller conveyor below the surface, sorting mechanism starts, oblique cylinder float upwards and contact at the bottom of the goods, will be inclined to move out of the main conveyor goods - floating on the sorting machine, one is to use a line to the left or [mountain right rotating roller, ascend in qigong, Goods can be left or right out.

7 Slab-inclined sorting machine

This is a special type of plate conveyor, the goods are loaded on the conveyor's plate, when the goods walk to the position of the need for sorting, one end of the plate automatically rises, so that the plate tilts, so that the goods will be removed from the main conveyor. The number of boards occupied by goods is determined with the length of different goods. The number of boards occupied by goods is like a unit and tilted at the same time. Therefore, the sorting machine is not restricted to the length of goods within a certain range.

The above is the sorting machine of various types, according to its classification, we are not difficult to see, each sorting machine has its own sorting object, this is also an important difference between various sorting machine!
