Handles Irregular Items Split Tray Sorter Easily Sorts Oddly Shaped
Items Without Difficulty
The Split Tray Sorter, commonly known as the Bombay Sorter, is a
sophisticated sorting solution developed by RKSORT to effectively
manage the sorting of small to medium-sized items, particularly
flat products.
This sorter features an elliptical horizontal ring layout with
options for single or double-row trays. Items are placed in these
trays and travel along a circular track. Upon reaching specific
positions, the two halves of the trays open like doors, allowing
the items to drop vertically into chutes or material boxes, thereby
completing the sorting process.
The Split Tray Sorter is designed for high efficiency, capable of
processing up to 21,600 trays per hour due to its ability to load
items on double-row trays simultaneously. It is especially
effective at sorting clothing, express letters, printed materials,
and other flat or non-fragile items, including those with irregular
shapes.

Product Features
Strong Applicability
The Split Tray Sorter uses trays to transport items, making it
highly versatile for sorting lightweight, floating, or irregularly
shaped items that are not suitable for Cross Belt Sorters. It can
efficiently sort various types of packaging, including boxes,
plastic bags, cartons, tote bags, and soft packaging.
Low-Speed High-Efficiency Sorting
The innovative "one cart, two trays" mechanism of the double-row
Split Tray Sorter allows for sorting efficiencies that are double
those of similarly configured Cross Belt Sorters. Operating at a
ring line speed of just 1.2m/s, it can achieve sorting rates of up
to 17,280 items per hour, with a dual-side feeding setup
potentially reaching a maximum theoretical capacity of 34,560 items
per hour.
High Sorting Accuracy
Equipped with advanced intelligent cameras, the Split Tray Sorter
can read codes in any orientation, achieving a reading accuracy of
up to 99%. High-tech sensors and PLCs rapidly detect items and
determine their paths, while the efficient tray handling mechanism
ensures swift and precise product separation, minimizing errors.
High Flexibility
The elimination of chain drives and wheel turning in the
transmission system allows for distributed low-power motors to be
placed at any point in the circular sorting setup. This design
permits virtually unlimited sorter length and multiple destination
paths. Its low-speed operation is also suitable for manual feeding
without complex multi-level feeding systems.
Small Footprint
The innovative design of the Split Tray Sorter does not require
additional multi-level feeding systems. Items can be sorted
directly into bags or boxes, maximizing space efficiency. Its
compact structure can be configured around factory columns, taking
up minimal space overall.
Low Energy Consumption, Simple Structure, Low Maintenance
The sorter employs distributed low-power motor drives, contributing
to significant energy savings. The mechanical unloading and
resetting mechanisms are designed to avoid additional energy
consumption beyond the main drive. The relatively low-speed
operation minimizes wear and tear, extending the service life and
reducing maintenance costs.
Modular Design
The entire machine features a modular design that facilitates quick
assembly, disassembly, expansion, and relocation, making it a
flexible solution for various sorting needs.
Application
Split tray sorters are ideal for high-speed automated sorting of
small and medium-sized items across various industries. They are
commonly used in sectors such as footwear, books, e-commerce,
postal services, daily essentials, pharmaceuticals, and jewelry.
For very small or lightweight items that pose challenges for other
types of sorters, such as cross belt sorters, split tray sorters
can effectively automate the sorting process.
These sorters are particularly effective in distribution centers
that serve consumers directly, facilitating batch picking and
sorting of discrete orders, including e-commerce goods, retail
clothing, omnichannel logistics, store replenishment, and returns
processing. However, they are not suitable for fragile items that
cannot withstand impacts; for such specialized sorting needs, the
RKSORT-NBS series sorters from Realkey are recommended.
Advantages
V-shaped Tray Design
The unique V-shaped tray design accommodates easily rollable items,
whether they are lightweight or irregularly shaped. If it fits in
the tray, the Split Tray Sorter can manage it efficiently.
Heavy-duty Tray Option
Our heavy-duty trays are engineered for demanding postal and
courier environments, capable of withstanding significant loads,
with each tray supporting up to 15 kilograms.
Merging Tray Technology
The patented double-row tray design allows two groups of trays in
the same row to sort different items to separate destinations,
while also enabling the merging of two trays to carry larger items
for sorting.
Flat Stacking Technology
For folded garments, books, documents, and other flat items,
products can drop directly into boxes or bags, typically
eliminating the need for additional stacking labor.
Safety Design
The safety tray design allows for high sorting throughput even at
lower speeds, with minimal gaps between trays. The design avoids
sharp edges and reduces spacing between trays, ensuring operator
safety.
Reliability
With 17 years of experience in logistics and automated sorting
solutions, Realkey has established a strong reputation for
delivering tailored sorting solutions. Our products are recognized
for their durability and reliability, making us a trusted partner
in the industry.
