PICKING SYSTEMS
LightSort™
Flexible Light-Directed Sorting for Modern Operations
As mail and parcel operations look for ways to improve productivity without adding unnecessary complexity, light directed sorting technology has become an increasingly valuable tool. Engineering Innovation’s LightSort™ systems offers a flexible and cost-effective solution designed to streamline sorting and picking processes while integrating easily into existing workflows.
LightSort uses intuitive visual cues to guide operators through sorting and picking tasks, helping reduce errors and increase throughput. Multicolored indicator lights direct users to the correct sort location, allowing operators to quickly identify destinations and complete tasks with minimal training. The system’s simple user interface enables teams to become productive quickly, making it well suited for operations managing fluctuating labor or seasonal volume increases.
A key advantage of the LightSort platform is its adaptability. The system can be deployed across multiple rack configurations and connected in series to create an interconnected sorting network. This design allows multiple operators to work simultaneously within the same environment, improving efficiency while maintaining accuracy across the operation.
LightSort can also retrofit existing rack systems, allowing organizations to introduce light-directed automation without replacing their current infrastructure. This approach helps operations modernize workflows while preserving existing investments in equipment and facility layouts.
To further support productivity, LightSort integrates wireless ring scanners that enable operators to confirm scans and complete sort actions while maintaining a natural workflow. Combined with flexible system configurations and customizable lighting patterns, the technology can be tailored to meet the specific needs of different operations, from mail sorting to order fulfillment and picking environments.
With its modular design and user-friendly operation, LightSort provides organizations with an adaptable automation tool that improves sorting accuracy, enhances productivity, and scales alongside operational growth.
