The Pick Rotor System is the ideal solution to automatically order pick and sort hanging goods into sequence.
The concept is based on the idea to use a standardised RFID equipped adaptor instead of the comparably unreliable garment hanger in automated transport and sortation systems. This results with a very high process reliability and performance.
Advantages at a glance:
» ROI of less than 2 years possible
» No employees in Pick Zone and sortation required.
» Less space
» Fully automated handling of current hangers, plastic or steel hook
» Very high process reliability and integrity.
Advantages:
» A high transport capacity of up to 15,000 items/hr.
» 22 mm slim adaptors ensure that the storage density is determined by garment thickness only.
» Fully integrated system with automatic handling of empty adaptors.
» Cost reduced by using gravity buffer-rails
» Only 3° slope required therefore can fit into lower height ceilings.
» Automatic linking of hangers and adaptors
» Reliable reading of the adaptor
Buffering and sequence sortation, are features of the system
The system can automatically single out, identify, store, pick, sort, sort in sequence, pack and label.
The system in operation:
Hangers which originate in receiving area are transported by means of conventional conveyors to an automatic linking station. Initially the goods are recognised by reading individual bar codes or by a leading bar code that indentifies a block of identical items. The information is then linked to the RFID Tag.
Before separation from the adaptor, the goods can be labelled or put into bags.
The Adaptor
Each adaptor can be identified in the system at anytime and at any location.
Its derail safe due to it being enclosed in an aluminium rail, transportation is managed by a chain.
The large aperture caters for large variety of hangers, made of plastic or metal and the transport of different hooked carriers. Flat goods can be sorted with specially devised hanger pouch.
Plastic covered rollers ensure quiet running and maintenance free industrial bearings guarantee long use of the adaptors.
