BEUMER Cross-Belt Sortation Systems

The BEUMER Group portfolio of Cross-belt sortation systems includes the BEUMER Belt Tray Sorter and the Crisplant LS-4000CB Cross-belt sorter. With a large number of installations worldwide, BEUMER Group sortation equipment and software are critical components of today's most sophisticated and highest-throughput automated material handling systems including:

  • Letter trays, packets and small envelopes in the postal and courier industry
  • Shoeboxes and apparel in the footwear and clothing industry
  • Plastic film wrapped products with high-friction (sticky) surfaces as in mail-order companies and the newspaper distribution industry
  • Unstable and sensitive products, such as frozen foods, cakes and dairy products
  • Other industries with extreme variation in product types, shapes and frictional behavior such as baggage handling for airports or freight centers

BEUMER|Belt Tray Sorter

The BEUMER Belt Tray Sorter with contactless energy supply and linear induction motor drive sorts items safely and gently to the right destination, irrespective of size, shape or surface characteristics of the product handled.

Thanks to the contactless data and power transmission, the BEUMER Belt Tray Sorter incorporates the utmost in flexibility. It is even possible to separate heavy items from lightweight (fragile) ones within the same output selection. Belting materials and surface textures can be formulated to the specific product requirements.

The unique contactless energy supply system keeps operating costs at a minimum - and the modular design concept means that systems can be configured to ideally suit your building's floor space without having to compromise on system performance.

Features:

  • The BEUMER Belt Tray Sorter provides high reliability
  • Costs of maintenance can be 80% less compared to conventional crossbelt sorters
  • 50% fewer components than other crossbelt sorters
  • Contactless data and power transmission
  • The gaps between pulleys and adjacent belt trays are minimized
  • Product damage, jams and system downtimes are significantly reduced by this unique belt tray design
  • The belt tray induct and discharge speed can be adjusted for each individual item (providing a multitude of different ramps, tailored to your product)
  • The system can adapt rapidly to varying requirements in operating "throughput rate" or "individual product requirements" associated with seasonal peaks in the business cycle
  • By individually adjusting the start position of each discharge sequence, higher filling rates density of products can be achieved in the after-sort accumulation areas

Crisplant LS-4000CB|Cross-Belt Sortation System

The LS-4000CB Cross-Belt high speed loop sorters from Crisplant feature the highest layout flexibility with reduced installation and commissioning time. The new sortation technology delivers real environmental benefits with reduced carbon dioxide emissions and increased energy efficiency to provide the lowest product life cycle cost (PLCC).

The system is designed to transport and sort items that present difficulties during traditional sortation, such as fragile and high-friction items. The gentle belt sorting allows for the horizontal discharge of items to ensure precise position and orientation throughout the entire sortation process.

Equipped with an energy-efficient linear synchronous motor (LSM), the LS-4000CB reduces the overall PLCC substantially without sacrificing speed, capacity, and reliability. The high-speed LSM eliminates contact between moving parts, leading to low wear-and-tear and low noise levels.

Features:

  • High capacity sortation of fragile and high-friction items
  • New Linear Synchronous Motor (LSM) improves electrical efficiency
  • Improved product life cycle cost (PLCC)
  • Modular platform for flexible layout
  • Precise positioning and orientation throughout the entire sortation process
  • Optimised conditions for integration into an existing environment
  • Optimised induction system
