Ship Sorter Scanning

Improve traceability, increase sorting throughput and reduce manual handling

Ship sorters are the backbone of the distribution facility and are often the last scanning point prior to going onto a truck. No reads at this point means re-circulation and manual handling.

Packages often contain multiple labels and codes which must be read quickly and accurately to meet delivery commitments. Achieving efficient operations relies on maximizing throughput (read rates) and minimizing gaps between packages on the line. Fulfillment and distribution centers are constantly seeking ways to reduce the number of no reads on their sorting system and need operational data to better understand the causes. Having this data is critical to improving efficiency. Many traditional laser-based scanning solutions do not provide these valuable insights.
