FORTNA Company Profile

Boost throughput of a wide range of products and packaging types in an efficient footprint.

Boost throughput of a wide range of products and packaging types in an efficient footprint.

For operations facing e-commerce challenges like massive, diverse order volumes, the HC-Loop cross-belt sorter from FORTNA offers an efficient solution to keep orders flowing and meet strict delivery deadlines, handling everything from flats and bubble mailers to bagged items and corrugate cases.

By using the HC-Loop, operations can handle the wide range of products at the speed required by today’s commerce, all in an efficient footprint.

The HC-Loop sorter allows operations to pack more divert destinations into the same footprint – addressing both growing order volumes and space constraints facing distribution and fulfillment facilities. The sorter’s automatic centering mechanism locates items in the middle of the carrying surface for precise diverts every time, allowing the system to use narrower divert chutes located closer together, thus expanding sortation capacity in a more efficient footprint.

 

  • Cross-belt carrying surface accommodates wide range of products and packaging types

  • Linear induction motor provides smooth operation, precise speed control and prolonged system lifespan

  • Modular design offers layout flexibility and space savings

  • Fewer components enable simple maintenance and improved reliability

A variation of the sorter, known as the HC-Loop Double Cell is available so users can handle an even wider range of item sizes.
