Cross-Belt Sorting System: Cost-Effective Cross-Border Sorting Solution
The cross-belt sorting system is currently the most widely used type in cross-border logistics, consisting of a main conveyor line, cross-belt trolleys and code scanning identification devices. After the goods pass through the code scanning area, the system assigns a destination, and the cross-belt trolley accurately receives the goods and runs along the circular track, and sends the goods out smoothly when reaching the corresponding exit. Its advantages are gentle sorting, suitable for fragile items such as clothing and 3C products; the sorting efficiency can reach 2,000-4,000 pieces per hour, meeting the needs of small and medium-sized cross-border merchants. The system covers a small area, can be flexibly arranged according to the warehouse space, and has low maintenance costs. The failure of a single trolley does not affect the overall operation. For Alibaba International Station sellers, it can quickly process multi-SKU and multi-destination orders, and cooperate with the international logistics label printing function to realize the integration of "sorting-labeling-outbound", reducing labor costs and error rates in cross-border logistics links.
