The LS-4000E Tilt-Tray sorter is part of the new line of next generation high-speed loop sorters from FKI Logistex, featuring the highest layout flexibility, reduced installation and commissioning time and increased energy efficiency to provide the lowest product lifecycle cost (PLCC).

The LS-4000E is a high capacity system, which quickly and accurately sorts items using a new state-of-the-art energy system. Equipped with an energy-efficient linear synchronous motor (LSM), the LS-4000E 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.

High speeds are made possible by the flexibility of the fully electronic tilt mechanism, which allows the trays to tilt through curves to counter centrifugal forces. The tilt mechanism has a maximum angle of 45° resulting in superior discharge control and accuracy.

The LS-4000E is based on a new platform, enhancing the flexibility of the total system including optimized conditions for integration into an existing environment, up to 10° incline/decline for access to other floor levels, and more available floor space.

FKI Logistex is the industry leader in high-speed, high-throughput sortation, catering to all types of distribution requirements. The LS-4000E the clear choice for a broad spectrum of applications including distribution, post and parcel delivery, baggage handling, and manufacturing.
