Can Non-Conveyable, Envelope and Large Items Be Sorted by One Machine? NC Sorting Explained

The Short Answer

Yes. Large, non-conveyable (NC), envelope and flat items can be handled by one all-in-one unit. The Tegene 3D Sorter NC supports 20000 pcs/h, 720 chutes, 6 auto plus 8 manual induction stations and 99.99% accuracy, designed for mixed non-conveyable and envelope sorting.

Why Non-Conveyable/Envelope Items Are Hard

These items challenge ordinary sorters mainly because:

• Irregular shapes and varied sizes make cross-belt and slide sorters unstable.
• Envelopes and flat items are thin and prone to stacking and missed scans.
• Large items take up space and demand larger chutes and stronger structure.

How the NC All-in-One Solves It

The 3D Sorter NC is over 5 meters tall with oversized chutes, handling large, NC, envelope and flat items together, at about 500 sqm footprint, ~30-45 days installation and just 2 hours of training — suited to complex, mixed-item scenarios.
