Sorting technology of the future is compact, modular and highly efficient

Groundbreaking sorting concept for e-commerce and omichannel warehouses:

The market has known EuroSort for years as the specialist in high-quality loop sorting machines, which function circularly and can sort items on a large scale and with high capacity. The solutions are used with great success in retail, where a huge push towards the e-commerce market has been taking place for several years. During LogiMAT, EuroSort will show that it also excels in this market. Indeed, at the center of booth 3A67 is the full-scale launch of the E-Sort: a pioneering, compact and fully modular sorting concept for e-commerce operations in which not one, but three to fourteen exits can be placed under each tray, depending on product specifications and order size. “With this solution we set a new standard in the market,” says a proud Rens Gehling, commercial director of EuroSort. “Both in terms of weight, product size, capacity and number of exits - and that at an attractive price.”

People are ordering more and more products online, affecting order flow and order fulfillment. This trend will also continue unabated in 2026, with the number of products per order becoming smaller and smaller. “This has implications for the material handling equipment in the warehouse,” says Gehling. “Our latest innovation addresses this perfectly.” In most warehouses, products are delivered in waves or batches, which then have to be sorted out, he says. “This creates a growing need for many more outlets on a smaller footprint. Several years ago we introduced a special innovation for this - the Chute Pitch Reducer - which can increase the number of exits by approximately <40%, on the same floor space. A golden find, which we now see in approximately 70% of our sorting solutions. However, this solution is specifically aimed at traditional sorting solutions and not e-commerce. Our latest innovation is.”

One hundred outputs at just five meters

Batch picking solutions in the e-commerce market often function standalone, Gehling knows. “In many cases, a single operator loads the batch, after which smaller products are sorted out into bins or shelves on a small floor space. Only then is packaging done.” He compares it to an automated putwall. “From that trend, we also developed our E-Sort. This unique sorting concept uses our traditional Split Tray technology and combines it with a wide range of picking exit options. At the base is our SmartWall concept; a configurable wall of exits that can be configured to customer requirements. The SmartWall is then placed under the Split Tray. This allows us to achieve three to four times the throughput of our competition. Moreover, we can sort much larger and different types of products, over a large number of exits per square meter. For example, on a length of five meters - depending on the type of exit and customer specifications - as many as one hundred exits can be added. In doing so, we offer a significant increase in capacity within the same space.”

Flexibly scalable for maximum sorting output

The E-Sort is modular and therefore flexibly scalable, Gehling emphasizes. “At fifty meters in length, as many as one thousand (!) exits are possible. Moreover, because we use loop sorters, it is possible to make a loop in the layout, so that you suddenly have two, three or four thousand exits at your disposal. A huge economy of scale, which greatly reduces your cost per exit and square meter of floor space. Moreover, just one sorting system is sufficient for all processes.”

One system for the complete omnichannel warehouse

“Because we use loop sorters, we can easily combine our solution with standard and traditional replenishment flows to stores,” Gehling emphasizes. “But also with other types of chutes and controlling software. For example, with regard to return flows coming in in the morning. In other words, companies can use our solution to organize their store replenishment during the day, operate e-commerce in the evening and take the return flow in the morning. In doing so, they benefit from one unique logistics system, which can serve the complete omnichannel warehouse.’

Suitable for three divergent customer groups

With the E-Sort, EuroSort hopes to appeal to three divergent customer groups: the entry-level market in e-commerce, third-party logistics players/e-commerce customers with an increasing demand for small orders with relatively few items, and omnichannel customers with standard B2B processes who are also going to do B2C. “During LogiMAT they can see and experience the possibilities of the E-Sort in detail,” concludes Gehling. “At our booth, we will place a 3-meter-high and 6-meter-wide scale sorting solution, on which various demonstrations will be provided.”

At LogiMAT, EuroSort can be found in Hall 3 - Stand 3A67.
