Hanging Garment Sorter
SDI's hangsorter system is the standard in high-speed unit distribution of hanging garments.
Its design can be configured for installation in either multi-level or single-level operations with
equal effectiveness.
Induction to the sorter is achieved either manually or automatically by adding a
mechanical device which synchronizes a screw conveyor or quick picker with the hooks and
automatically delivers the hangers to the hooks as they pass through the induction area. The
induction process can also be integrated with an automatic trolley-stripper.
The hang sorter has a variable speed controller, allowing the operators to optimize the travel
speed of the garments as well as the induction rate. Induction rates are determined by two
factors: rope speed and center distance. SDI's Standard Speed Hangsorter, running at
maximum speed with hooks at 324mm centers has an induction rate of 6000 hooks per hour
with either manual or automatic induction. The High Speed Hangsorter has hooks on 250mm
centers and is capable of induction rates of 10,000 hooks per hour but for this speed requires
an automatic induction device.
We have developed the most comprehensive and innovative hang sorter system in the world.
We continue to refine our systems, incorporating more ergonomic designs, high-tech
materials and components, and labor-saving applications. Whether you're allocating single
garments or pre-packed packs of GOH merchandise, our sorters deliver the merchandise
to the store land accurately and ready to be shipped.
