RS Material Handling Inc. Narrow Belt Sorters (NBS) have many advantages over more conventional sorters; most importantly, they are designed for quiet operation and maximum efficiency. Features such as:

  • several narrow belts instead of one wide belt
  • belts running in a track
  • elimination of drive mechanisms at divert points
  • minimal belt snubbing at 30-degree divert points
  • optimum belt tension on each narrow belt with patented automatic belt take-up
  • no product-to-roller noise at any divert point

contribute to a sorter so quiet that actual sound pressure measurements are 75% less than those for conventional sorters.
