Government department concerned
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport
Overview of the technology
It is a technology for a cross-belt type sortation system that automatically sorts parcels with maximum 50kg operating at a speed of 4m/s to be used in warehouses and distribution centers for fast and accurate parcel delivery.
Needs for the technology
- Increasing demand for high-speed parcel processing due to the growth of the e-commerce market
- A high dependence on import for high-speed sorters
- Need for domestically produced sorters to reduce costs for purchase and maintenance
- Need for a sortation system that sorts items based on their characteristics and sizes due to increasing small multi-item orders
