VarioRoute
Optimize your parcel flow with a high-speed, fully electric diverter designed to handle any mix—from small and irregular items to oversized cartons—without pneumatics.

Flexible sorting for dynamic logistics
Benefits
High adaptability
The modular design adapts to specific layouts with a small footprint, while standardized components ensure short delivery times.
High performance
Sets a benchmark with processing speeds of up to 2.5 m/s and a capacity of up to 12,000 parcels per hour.
Low energy consumption
Features the lowest energy consumption and maintenance requirements among its peers, reducing total cost of ownership.
Reduced noise
Creates a better working environment with an extremely low noise level of under 68 dB(A).
High-speed routing
Maintains critical gaps between items with higher speeds at the diverts, ensuring precise routing for continuous flows.
Broad parcel spectrum
Handles a wide range of items, from small to oversized goods, across different packaging materials like paper, carton, or plastic.
In numbers
Uptime
>99.85%
Engineered with high-quality components to ensure consistent system availability of over 99.85%.
Fast Repair
15 min
Designed for easy access, enabling maintenance teams to complete repairs and replace parts in under 15 minutes.
Throughput
12,000
Achieves high-volume sorting of up to 12,000 items per hour to meet peak Ecommerce demands.

Solve the "irregular items" challenge
Distribution centers face increasing pressure to handle very small and irregular items. VarioRoute processes these items without becoming bottlenecks.

Technology built for speed
Precision gaps
Individual Pivot Roller Units (PRUs) pivot instantly up to ±45° to route items, enabling parallel or curve diverting with smaller gaps between parcels for higher overall throughput.
Seamless integration
Whether for primary sorting or sorter induction, the system integrates easily with upstream singulators. Belt Transport Modules allow for rotation and redirection even while parcels are partially on the belt.
