Our advanced package sorting machines excel in versatility, especially when it comes to handling various postal containers. The Xstream seamlessly sorts packages directly into an array of container types, including:

• Postal Bags: Ideal for organized transport, easily handled by postal workers.
• Mail Carts: Durable, mobile, suited for heavier loads, and easy to swap out when full. Makes it easy to transport sorted parcels to their next destination.

Xstream Compact uses a Single Induct, Single Lane configuration, essentially shrinking its footprint compared to an Xstream, which is dual lane, dual induct. While the Xstream Compact contains a single lane, it is dual-sided, allowing for the same amount of outputs as the Xstream, but at a lower throughput rate, and smaller footprint. The outputs can be spaced at 22”, 26.4”, 33”, & 44”.

LFT (Legal for Trade) can be for dimensioners or for scales. Customers require weighing and/or measuring devices that have a certificate of performance from NTEP (National Type Evaluation Program) This is required by law if the mailer is using the weights or measurement for commerce. Mailers often use the measurements taken for “revenue recovery” on postage. If the prepaid postage is less that is should be based on these measurements they can assess a difference in postage from their customer.

Non-Cuboidal Detection is a function of stereoscopic laser dimensioners that can determine if an object is a box or irregular shape like a bag. Sorters have the ability to use this information about a parcel to decide what output to sort it to.
