The BEUMER BS-7 Tilt Tray consists of mechanically activated tilt elements which ensure a controlled discharge of the sorter goods to both sides of the sorter. The same system can handle small 3"x3" items as well as large 48" x 30" boxes that span 2 trays, making it ideal for retail, e-commerce, and high volume shipping sortation. BEUMER’s 30 years of experience result in a library of proven sort destinations perfected for bulk apparel, direct to carton/gaylord, shipping downlines, and even fragile chutes with brake belts. Customized to each client's particular business needs, the BEUMER BS-7 Tilt Tray is the sorter of choice for many Fortune 500 companies.

Tilting elements are available in 2D (standard sideways tilt) and 3D (directed sideways tilt with a rotational component). Available in various sizes to meet project requirements; tray material, tray design and tray features can be customized including a Double Density (DD) tray arrangement to double system capacity. The patented design of the tilting element, torsion-resistant carriage assembly, and low-wear linear motor drive system decrease maintenance on the sorter. The highly engineered system and long proven system is comprised of durable aluminum materials to minimize the requirement for spare parts and to provide the highest uptime in the industry.
