Cross Belt Sorter for Regional Distribution Centers Maximize Efficiency Minimize Costs

The Realkey Cross Belt Sorter is a high-performance logistics system designed to automate parcel and carton sorting with accuracy and speed. Built around a modular framework, it integrates rail tracks, smart carts, perpendicular conveyor belts, and advanced recognition systems. Each cart—connected in a continuous loop—features a crosswise belt that activates at the correct drop point, ensuring precise and efficient delivery. Items can be loaded manually or through automated feeding systems.
Available in both looped (circular) and linear configurations, the system adapts to a variety of sorting environments. Circular models process up to 22,000 units per hour at a speed of 2 m/s, while linear formats sort around 8,000 units per hour at 1.5 m/s. These capabilities make the sorter an excellent fit for industries like courier and express delivery, online retail, fashion, food logistics, healthcare, cosmetics, and airport cargo handling.

Technical Parameters

Ideal Use Scenarios
Postal and Courier Facilities
Realkey’s cross belt sorters are widely used in regional depots, transfer hubs, and central processing centers. Linear systems, in particular, are valued for their space-saving footprint and layout flexibility, helping organizations reduce labor dependency and improve processing flow.
E-Commerce Fulfillment and Global Logistics
E-commerce growth, especially during high-demand seasons, requires adaptable solutions. Realkey's sorters are built to handle a wide range of product categories—from fashion and personal care to infant products and consumer goods—making them a core component of scalable distribution strategies.

Key Benefits
Advanced Vision Integration
When equipped with optional vision systems, the sorter continuously monitors cart performance in real time. Malfunctioning units are automatically identified and removed from the line. Instant notifications minimize unplanned interruptions (automated feeding required).
Optimized Cart Management
Intelligent software dynamically assigns single carts for compact items and dual carts for oversized parcels up to 1.2 meters. This flexibility eliminates the need for physical reconfiguration while maximizing throughput and resource use.
Smart Maintenance Workflow
Through the operator interface, maintenance can be scheduled and executed automatically. Carts are rerouted to service bays as needed, reducing technician workload and minimizing downtime.
Engineered for Longevity
With over 18 years in the logistics automation space, Realkey offers proven, long-lasting equipment trusted by industry leaders. Every system is built to deliver consistent performance and dependable uptime in demanding operational settings.

Equip your regional hub with Realkey’s Cross Belt Sorter—an intelligent, scalable solution that enhances sorting speed, reduces manual labor, and supports long-term operational growth.
