Pop-up sorter
A pop-up sorter is an efficient alternative for automatic sorting of materials. Using pusher arms, the item can be deflected by 30° or 45°, directing it into the desired lane. This system is ideal for higher capacities compared to traditional transfer units, providing faster and more accurate sorting. It is primarily used in applications requiring swift and reliable product separation for subsequent stages of production or distribution.

A pop-up sorter is an automatic goods-sorting device that uses retractable skate wheels to divert an item by 30° or 45° and direct it into the required route. It divides the flow of parcels or products on a conveyor line into individual output branches, for example by destination, order or product type. Thanks to its retractable mechanism, it operates gently and quickly, making it suitable for higher-throughput operations such as distribution centres and parcel depots.
A pop-up sorter works using skate wheels that rise above the conveyor level at the moment of sorting and divert the item by 30° or 45° into a side output. Outside the sorting cycle, the wheels remain retracted and goods continue straight ahead. This lifting mechanism enables smooth redirection without hard impacts, making it suitable even for more sensitive consignments. The exact speed and number of outputs depend on the design and required capacity.
A pop-up sorter is suitable for operations where the goods flow needs to be divided automatically into multiple directions, typically distribution centres, parcel depots and industrial applications. It is useful where manual sorting no longer provides sufficient capacity or where the aim is to speed up and improve the accuracy of parcel routing. We always assess the suitability of the specific solution according to the volume, dimensions and weight of the sorted items and the number of output branches.
We design the pop-up sorter as part of the complete conveyor route and connect it to downstream conveyors as well as the operation’s control and identification system. The sorter works with code scanning, so the direction of each item is determined by identification data and the next section of the line follows accordingly. We prepare the solution to order according to the hall layout and existing technology. More information about related elements can be found in the goods identification section and under other methods of automatic sorting.
Yes, we supply pop-up sorters as a custom solution from design through manufacturing and installation to subsequent service. As a Czech manufacturer and integrator of conveyor and automation technology, we develop and manufacture everything ourselves, allowing the design, number of outputs and capacity to be adapted to the specific operation. After installation, we provide service and support to keep the sorter operating reliably over the long term. Delivery time and price depend on the scope of the requirements and the specific line specification.
