Solutions: Pivot Wheel Sortation

Automate downstream for operational efficiency

From the small to medium capacity typical of last mile depots, the FORTNA pivoting wheel sorter can sort a large variety of packages with different weights and sizes. Suitable for inbound and outbound operations, the pivoting wheel sorter can handle bidirectional flows on the same line for streamlined design, optimised workflow and a smaller footprint.

By automating downstream, businesses can speed up their sorting process and handle larger shipments in a shorter period of time, thereby increasing efficiency. The time saved in facility operations means more time to serve the final customers, establishing a competitive advantage.

Improve TCO with flexible and scalable sorting solutions

To align with market demand, businesses must remain adaptable and adjust their operations to accommodate varying volumes and seasonal surges. The FORTNA pivoting wheel sorter features modular solutions that boost operational flexibility and enable design scalability.

Benefits of modular sortation systems:

Future-proofing solutions, easy upgrade to system output anytime
Space optimisation due to streamlined design
Improved workflow and operational effectiveness
Less maintenance ensured by consolidated technology
