Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the NG station used for?

The NG (No Good) station automatically routes items that cannot be identified, are outside size/weight limits, or appear damaged. These items are collected separately for manual review without stopping the entire sorting process.

Can I expand from 6 to more stations later?

Yes. Our modular architecture allows adding additional sorting modules. Expansion typically requires minimal downtime and can be completed in 1-2 days by our technicians.

What recognition technologies are supported?

Standard barcode (1D/2D), QR code, Data Matrix, and optional OCR for address reading. RFID integration is also available as an upgrade option for high-speed identification needs.

How long does installation take?

Standard installation takes 3-5 working days including setup, calibration, testing, and operator training. Complex integrations may require up to 2 weeks total lead time.
