Exploring Use Cases for the Pivot Wheel Sorter in Modern Industries

The Pivot Wheel Sorter is a precision-guided, wheel based sorting system designed preliminary for handling a variety of parcel types, including cartons, flexible packaging, and polybags. As an independent module, it seamlessly integrates with conveyor systems and can be strategically positioned at any point along a conveyor line.

The operating mechanism of Pivot Wheel Sorters sets the industry standard for robustness, performance, and reliability, thanks to the integration of a dedicated 48v drum motor within each wheel unit. This design not only maximises performance but also significantly enhances reliability by eliminating single points of failure within the wheel configuration. Additionally, maintenance is streamlined, as each wheel can be independently removed and replaced within minutes, ensuring minimal downtime.

The versatility of Pivot Wheel diverters not only make them suitable for handling multiple product types at the same time, but also can be used for various applications such as sorting at unloading areas, pre-sort matrices, sorting at loading areas, automatic infeed of parcels to Cross belt sorters, diversion of bulk flow from one line to another, QC diverting and much more.

Applications

 

Sorting at Unloading Area

Pivot Wheel Diverters sort parcels immediately after loading onto belt extendables in the unloading area. Typical equipment includes belt extendables, conveyor belts, DWS (Dimensioning Weighing Scanning), Pivot Wheel Sorters, and chutes.

Matrix Sorter

Pivot Wheel Diverters, when used with conveyor belts, form matrix sorters that offer high throughput and reliability. Multiple lines of sorters share the same outbound conveyors.

Automatic Infeed

Pivot Wheel Diverters efficiently direct parcels onto automatic infeed lines for Cross belt Sorters.

Diverting Bulk Flow

Pivot Wheel Sorters can divert bulk parcel flows from one conveyor line to another, using a swing angle direction to manage bulk distribution.

QC Diverting

They effectively divert products flagged for inspection in warehousing sectors. Coupled with Wayzim’s 3D bulk flow detection system, they handle stacked or improperly spaced parcels, ensuring proper sorting and re-induction into the system.

Wayzim Pivot Wheel Sorters provide flexible and efficient solutions for a range of sorting needs in the logistics industry. Their ability to handle diverse product types, support various sorting applications, and integrate with advanced detection systems ensures optimal performance and reliability across different operational scenarios.
