GEBHARDT SpeedSorter® line

Quickly Convey and Sort Thousands of Items

The GEBHARDT SpeedSorter® is a high-speed sortation system designed to efficiently sort totes, cartons, packets, polybags, and paper bags for manufacturers and distributors. It enhances throughput and order accuracy, supporting key processes such as incoming goods, order picking, and dispatch. This makes it perfect for high-volume operations with tight deadlines, like same-day or next-day deliveries.

The system uses barcode scanners to eject items to designated chutes based on preset criteria, ensuring fast and accurate sorting.

Customisable and modular, the SpeedSorter® adapts to various facility needs and can be easily scaled without significant downtime. With low maintenance requirements, a robust and quiet design, and integrated digitisation for real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, the GEBHARDT SpeedSorter® delivers reliable, cost-effective, and long-lasting performance.

Improve Throughput and Efficiency

Our sorter works by transporting units via a conveyor system and uses built-in barcode scanners to identify the order of the container. The carrier then ejects the unit onto diverging chutes that have been assigned set criteria, such as delivery destination. Units will collate at the end of the chute, ready to be collected and loaded onto delivery trucks.

The SpeedSorter® line sorts up to 14,000 items per hour at a speed of up to 1.8 m/s. A Toploader infeed can be included to automatically transfer units from connecting conveyor systems onto the GEBHARDT SpeedSorter® line. The Toploader loads units quickly and precisely to maximize throughput without any risk of product damage. With quicker internal transport and automated sorting, you can easily process large volumes of goods.

Modular and Cost-Saving Design

The GEBHARDT SpeedSorter® line is designed with longevity and cost-efficiency in mind. Each system is custom-made for the needs of each user, considering factors such as existing hardware and software, throughput requirements, and facility size.

Our sorters also use a modular design, allowing them to be easily modified if requirements change. Users can adapt the number and type of infeeds and destinations, chute length, and even the carrier type without significant investment or downtime. The sorter uses a ‘plug and play’ design, meaning it can be easily commissioned and scaled. When the system is installed, it does not require significant configuration to be deployed.

Real-Time Monitoring and Preventive Maintenance

The visual status display continuously represents a health check of all central components. In connection with the GEBHARDT Galileo IoT platform, the system displays data in detail and monitors the system’s status. It uses intelligent algorithms to analyse a variety of operating parameters and predict when individual sorter components will fail. This facilitates preventive maintenance, minimises downtime, increases reliability, and ensures long-term, reliable operation.

Low Maintenance and Quiet Operation

The robust construction of the GEBHARDT SpeedSorter® line is designed to provide exceptional reliability, ensuring that it requires minimal maintenance during operation. This durability helps to significantly reduce the need for frequent repairs or upkeep, which in turn lowers overall maintenance costs and maximises productivity. In addition, the solution operates quietly for minimal disruption.
