Regional Distribution Centers Cross Belt Sorter Lower Operational Costs

The Realkey Cross Belt Sorter is a cutting-edge system designed for seamless sorting of diverse items like parcels and cartons. It combines essential elements—tracks, carts, belts, recognition, and communication systems—into a cohesive unit. Carts, linked in a continuous loop along the track, align with perpendicular belts, earning the "Cross Belt" name. Items are loaded onto these belts manually or automatically, and as carts near sorting points, the system triggers precise belt movements for accurate sorting.

Offered in circular and linear layouts, these sorters deliver top-tier performance. Circular models hit speeds of 2 meters per second, sorting up to 22,000 items hourly. Linear versions, running straight, reach 1.5 meters per second and handle 8,000 items per hour. Ideal for high-volume, multi-directional sorting, they’re widely used in express delivery, e-commerce, fashion, food, cosmetics, airports, and pharmaceuticals.

Postal and Express Delivery

Cross belt sorters shine in regional hubs, transfer stations, and large postal or courier branches, where high sorting volumes demand automation. As labor costs climb and sorting needs grow, linear cross belt models stand out for their space-saving, adaptable designs, streamlining operations.

E-Commerce and Global Trade

With e-commerce booming, parcel surges during peak seasons are the norm. Cross belt sorters tackle these demands, offering versatile sorting for markets like fashion, tobacco, maternity goods, supermarkets, and pharmaceuticals, ensuring efficiency across diverse industries.
