Abstract

Logistics Journal, Vol. 2012, Iss. 01 - Utilisation of sorting systems’ maximum performance demands continuous conveying of goods by infeed lines to sorters. This is the case especially for sorters with one single infeed line, because the sorters’ performance is limited by the performance of the infeed line. Within this paper different infeed line constructions at the Rotary Sorter with diverse performances will be presented. The focus lies on a specific conveying system to synchronise the goods with the sorter by a performance of 6000 pieces per hour with one dynamic infeed line. By this means there is no extensive adjustment control of serial conveyors in the infeed line any longer.
