Distribution conveyor
The distribution conveyor is a laundry sorting system useful for tasks in which items are sorted and, in general, when a product is to undergo different production steps. It is used in various industries and in dry cleaners and industrial laundries.
It consists of a conveyor with several outlets that automatically send the semi-finished products to the operator at his workstation; in fact, the system can feed the entire production chain. At the end of each step, the item is paired with a specific slot, moving it on to a new step. The slots in the conveyor belt are not numbered, but have a name that corresponds to the routing, i.e. the item’s destination (e.g. quality control, rewash, shirt ironing). The system is designed to minimize operator movements, saving time and increasing operator efficiency during the work shift
