The TranSorter

With it’s origins in the bakery and confectionary industries, the TranSorter is an evolution of SpanTech’s extendable nose conveyor technology commonly referred to as a Transpositor. Proven in hundreds of applications, TranSorter is ideal for sorting a wide array of parcels, mixed –mail, bundles and difficult items such as irregular shaped cold- sealed envelopes and ultra lightweight polybags.

The transpositor retracts to create an opening while the belt continues to move forward similar to pulling a tablecloth from under a wine glass. Items are gently deposited onto a tilting device or crossbelt conveyor.

Perfect for Returns Processing , Fulfillment, Inbound sortation and End of Line Systems, the new TranSorter is versatile, modular and easy to expand.

Transpositor

Our transpositor provides right-angle product transfers without skewing, which allows product lanes or patterns to be built across the width of receiving conveyors. The transfer function uses our sprocket-driven MicroSpan chain. Servo, pneumatic actuator or AC motor can power the depositing function.

The transpositor is ideal for many applications, including:

• Feeding wrappers
• Casepackers
• Handpack stations
