S-3000E Tilt-Tray Sorter

Print View
 Trays in alternate full tilt position Mail order fulfillment system


The S-3000E Tilt-Tray Sorter is the latest generation in a long line of sortation equipment excellence. The S-3000E quickly and accurately sorts products with an adjustable velocity of up to 3.5 m/s (688 ft/min), allowing for considerable capacity and speed increases over current generation sortation systems. Ultra-high speeds are made possible by the flexibility of the fully electronic tilt mechanism, which allows the trays to tilt while moving through curves to counter centrifugal forces.

The S-3000E electronic tilt mechanism has an adjustable tilt angle to a maximum of 45˚ resulting in superior discharge control and higher discharge accuracy. While still able to easily accommodate large items, the system’s reliability is maintained even with a very small item size and weight. The tray pitch can be custom-configured for each specific application from 500 mm (19.7 in) to 1250 mm (49.2 in) in 50 mm (1.96 in) increments. For maximum versatility, the system is also designed to handle two-tray and potentially three-tray items, and utilizes a non-proprietary control system. All of this in a system that operates at approximately 62 dB(A) depending upon sorting speed, from the global leader in high-speed sortation solutions, FKI Logistex.

With more than 900 sortation systems installed worldwide, FKI Logistex is the industry leader in high-speed sortation, catering to all types of distribution requirements. S-3000E sortation systems are used within a broad spectrum of applications including distribution, freight and parcel delivery, baggage handling, and manufacturing.
