Singulator-Scan-Induction
Unit  The Singulator-Scan-Induction
Unit (SSIU) is a robust system that can automatically process all of the
mail that is currently being handled by today's bulk mail center parcel
sorters. The SSIU is a solution that is both modular and scalable.The SSIU automatically separates package and parcel mail into a stream of single pieces, reads barcode information, and inducts single mail pieces into a facility’s existing sorting system for finalization. We are dedicated to improving today’s automated parcel processing by providing advanced sortation systems. System Overview The singulator takes a bulk stream of parcels and separates it into single pieces that are delivered to the data collection system for identification. The data collection system identifies the delivery location of the mail piece and verifies that the mail piece has been singulated properly; oversize and overweight checks are also made by the data collection system. The mail piece travels to a shoe sorter where it is diverted to one of several induction lanes. The majority of mail pieces are diverted onto high-speed induction units, which deliver the mail onto a sorter for final disposition. Mail pieces that are oversized or overweight travel to the end of the shoe sorter where they are returned to ground level for manual processing. Benefits source: Lockheed Martin |
