Summary Innovation
The ABOT eSort Receiving System….Unload, Manifest, Open and sort product right on the receiving dock in one process. That is exactly what receiving dock operations can do when they utilize the modular ABOT Box Opener with eSort Receiving sorter. These two systems utilize the same 24v DC Conveyor, drive and control technology, so when an Ethernet Cable connects both units, they automatically recognize each other and operate as a complete receiving system. This entire system mounts on casters and can be moved around the dock from door to door very easily. When not in use it automatically folds up with the push of a button and stores nicely under pallet rack. The sorter can be easily re-configured on the fly to add or reduce sort destinations. This unit is ideal for Large Retail Stores that need to unload trucks, quickly, accurately and have the boxes opened ready to replenish the store front in Real Time. Operations can decouple the units and use them independently as well…Ultimate Modular Flexibility.
