The Product Sweet Spot SpanTech Sortation TechnologiesDivision of Span Tech LLC

• Been A Focus on Speed & Throughput– Loops sorters running at 400-500+ FPM

– Line Sorters running at 600+ FPM – The need for speed has driven many designs– Only a few customers really need this capacity– Less attention paid to low end of market– Many customers say: “Sorters are only for the big guys”
