Conveyor & Product Sorting Solutions with MTR Motor Driven Rollers and SRAD Servo Diverters

As logistics, e-commerce, and modern manufacturing continue to scale, the demand for automated conveyor systems and high-speed product sorting lines is rising fast—higher throughput, better accuracy, fewer errors, and reduced operational labor.
We deliver a complete conveying and sorting solution built around MTR (Motor Driven Rollers) combined with SRAD servo diverters, enabling stable operation, precise routing, and easy system expansion as your volume grows.

System Overview: Smart Conveying + Servo-Accurate Sorting

This solution is built on two core modules:

  • MTR – Motor Driven Roller conveyors: each roller integrates the motor, optimized for modular conveyors, zoned conveying, accumulation, carton/parcel transport, and scalable conveyor layouts.

  • SRAD – Servo Diverter modules: servo-driven diverting that routes products to left/right/multiple lanes with high precision and repeatability—ideal for high-speed sorting in warehouses and production lines.

With the right control architecture (PLC, sensors, encoder feedback, servo drives), the system forms a complete sorting line:
infeed → identification (barcode/vision) → routing logic → diverting → lane consolidation/output.

Key Advantages of MTR Motor Driven Roller Conveyors

1) Higher reliability, lower maintenance

Direct integrated drive reduces mechanical complexity and wear points, minimizing failures commonly seen in traditional motor + transmission configurations.

2) Quieter operation and improved energy efficiency

Zoned conveyor control allows sections to run only when products are present—reducing energy use and noise, ideal for modern warehouses and factories.

3) Modular design for easy expansion

The modular structure enables fast installation, quick replacement of sections, and flexible expansion as new lanes or capacity are required.

SRAD Servo Diverter: Fast, Accurate, and Stable Diverting

In any sorting line, the diverter is the productivity “gatekeeper.” SRAD servo diverters deliver:

  • Precise divert timing per item (correct moment, angle, and force)

  • High dynamic response for continuous, high-throughput sorting

  • Stable performance under changing loads/friction, reducing jams and product damage

  • Straightforward integration with PLC + barcode scanning/vision, supporting advanced routing algorithms

Typical use cases include carton sorting, parcel sorting, SKU-based routing, order consolidation, and outbound lane distribution.

Typical Applications

This MTR + SRAD solution fits well for:

  • Logistics / 3PL / e-commerce warehouses: parcel and carton sorting by route, hub, or outbound gate

  • Manufacturing plants (F&B, packaging, electronics): process routing, line merging, reject/OK separation

  • Distribution centers (DCs): sorting cartons by region, customer, or order batch

  • Packaging lines: accumulation, singulation, diverting, and grouping into batches

Business Value (ROI)

  • Higher sorting throughput with reduced dependence on manual labor

  • Lower misrouting rate and reduced risk of jams/drops

  • Less downtime thanks to modular conveyor structure and serviceability

  • Easier standardization and replication across multiple sites

Reference Configuration (Typical)

Depending on speed and payload requirements, a standard system may include:

  • MTR zoned conveyor sections (accumulation, merge, singulation)

  • SRAD servo diverters at key divert points

  • Sensors (photoelectric), optional barcode scanners/vision, encoder synchronization

  • PLC control + HMI monitoring + servo drive control for SRAD

  • Modular mechanical design based on site layout

Implementation Approach

  1. Product study: dimensions, weight, bottom surface, friction behavior

  2. KPI definition: throughput (items/min), acceptable error rate, number of sort destinations

  3. Layout finalization: conveyor routing + SRAD diverter placement

  4. Installation & commissioning: test runs + routing logic optimization

  5. Handover: operator training and maintenance guideline setup
