Smart Tilt Tray Sorter with Automatic Identification Precision Meets Performance

Smart Tilt Tray Sorter with Automatic Identification Precision Meets Performance

The Realkey Tilt Tray Sorter—also called the flip tray sorter—is an intelligent, cost-effective solution engineered for high-speed sorting of small to medium-sized items. Designed to improve sorting accuracy and workflow efficiency, this system is ideal for a broad range of industries requiring scalable automation.
Built around a modular, horizontal conveying system, it combines tray carriers, conveyor lines, tilt mechanisms, automated ID systems, and centralized controls. Packages are placed on trays that travel on motorized carts along a continuous loop. Once a tray reaches its destination, the integrated tilt function gently offloads the item into its correct chute, completing the sort with minimal impact or error.
The system handles a variety of item types—from parcels and boxes to rounded goods like tubes and spheres—making it more versatile than conventional sorters. With throughput ranging from 7,200 to 10,800 pieces per hour, depending on model specifications, the Realkey tilt tray sorter offers a reliable solution for postal networks, e-commerce fulfillment centers, apparel distributors, and produce handling facilities.

Technical Parameters

Broad Application in Logistics and Retail
Realkey’s tilt tray sorter is tailored for environments with a high volume of mixed goods. It excels in sorting tasks where accuracy, consistency, and speed are critical:
Postal & Express Logistics: Efficiently handles letters, parcels, and small packages.
Online Retail & Omnichannel Fulfillment: Sorts a wide range of SKUs, including fashion, tech accessories, and returns.
Consumer Goods & Pharmaceuticals: Supports high-throughput sorting of lightweight, often irregular items.
Produce & Perishables: Manages produce like fruits or vegetables that may roll or vary in shape.
Tilt tray sorters are particularly effective in batch-based picking and order preparation, helping streamline operations in third-party logistics, retail replenishment, and reverse logistics. However, for delicate goods requiring zero impact, Realkey recommends the RKSORT-NBS series.
