Double Row Trays Split Tray Sorter Allows Simultaneous Processing
Of Two Groups Of Items
The Split Tray Sorter, often referred to as the Bombay Sorter, is a
sophisticated sorting solution developed by RKSORT, specifically
tailored for the efficient handling of small to medium-sized items,
particularly flat products. This sorter features an elliptical
horizontal ring layout, available in both single and double-row
configurations. Items are placed in these trays and transported
along a circular track. When they reach their designated positions,
the two halves of the trays open like doors, allowing items to drop
vertically into chutes or material boxes, effectively 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 excels in sorting
clothing, express mail, printed materials, and other flat or
non-fragile items, including those with irregular shapes. For

Product Features
Strong Applicability
Utilizing trays for item transportation, the Split Tray Sorter is
highly adaptable for sorting lightweight, floating, or irregularly
shaped items that may not be suitable for Cross Belt Sorters. It
can efficiently handle various packaging types, 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 enables sorting efficiencies that surpass those
of similar 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 capable of reaching a
theoretical maximum of 34,560 items per hour.
High Sorting Accuracy
Equipped with advanced intelligent cameras, the Split Tray Sorter
can read codes from any angle, achieving a reading accuracy of up
to 99%. High-tech sensors and PLCs quickly detect items and
determine their paths, while the efficient tray handling mechanism
ensures swift and precise product separation, minimizing error
rates.
High Flexibility
The elimination of chain drives and wheel turning in its
transmission system allows for distributed low-power motors to be
positioned anywhere along the circular sorting path. This
configuration allows for virtually unlimited sorter length and
multiple destination paths. Its low-speed operation is also
suitable for manual feeding without complex multi-level feeding
requirements.
Small Footprint
The innovative design of the Split Tray Sorter removes the need for
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 overall space.
Low Energy Consumption, Simple Structure, Low Maintenance
The sorter employs distributed low-power motor drives, leading to
significant energy savings. Its mechanical unloading and resetting
mechanisms are designed to minimize additional energy consumption
beyond the main drive. The low-speed operation reduces wear and
tear, extending service life and reducing maintenance costs.
Modular Design
The entire machine features a modular design that supports quick
assembly, disassembly, expansion, and relocation, making it a
versatile solution for various sorting applications.
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 present challenges for
other types of sorters, such as cross belt sorters, split tray
sorters can effectively automate the sorting process.
These sorters excel in distribution centers that serve consumers
directly, enabling 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
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 effectively.
Heavy-duty Tray Option
Our heavy-duty trays are engineered for rigorous postal and courier
environments, capable of supporting significant loads, with each
tray handling 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
during 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. This 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 a proven track record in delivering tailored
sorting solutions. Our products are recognized for their durability
and reliability, making us a trusted partner in the industry.
