Sorting & DWS Systems

High-speed sortation and in-motion DWS — built for networks that cannot stop.

For courier and parcel delivery operators, 3PLs and hub networks. High-speed sorting engineered around your throughput curve, with dimensioning, weighing and scanning integrated directly into the flow — not bolted on.

The operating reality

Parcel volumes no longer plateau. Peak is a structural state, not a November event. Every minute of sorter downtime propagates through tracking systems, last-mile schedules and customer promises. And there is no maintenance window during peak.

Performance bands

Up to 3,000 parcels/h
Mid-sized parcels up to 40 kg
Up to 5,000 parcels/h
Small parcels up to 3 kg
5,000+ parcels/h
Multi-line configuration, 250 g – 40 kg

Logisoft DWS — Dimensioning, Weighing, Scanning

Parcel identification, weight, dimensions and angle captured in motion, within milliseconds. Continuous pass-through, no stop-and-measure. Legal-for-Trade certified for both weight and dimensions.

Identification
Up to 13 Leuze barcode scanners reading all five visible sides of the parcel
Dimension & angle
Two pairs of Leuze light curtain transmitters, horizontal and vertical
Weight
Four single-point Laumas load cells
Control
Rittal cabinets, Siemens PLC, integrated HMI diagnostics
Data
Full parcel-level traceability, ready to stream into WMS, WCS or carrier systems in real time.

High-speed sorting modules

Proven building blocks, matched to parcel profile. The same architecture scales from regional depot to national hub.

  • Multi-Angle Ball Sorter (Itoh Denki MABS) — 30°, 45° and 90° divert angles for mid-sized parcels.
  • Single- and Double-Line Diverter (Flowsort) — compact high-speed sortation for mixed parcel types.
  • FRAT — right-angle transfer for orthogonal routing between zones.

Three proven system configurations

Parcel Sorting Loop with integrated DWS

Single-loop architecture with 13 infeeds and 13 outfeeds, DWS captured in flow, one Siemens PLC and one HMI diagnostic surface. Parcel dimensioning, weighing and scanning happen inside the loop, not as a separate gate.

Logisoft ZigZag Sorter

Modular sorting for small parcels up to 5 kg — without any separate diverter modules. Barcode reading from top, with optional weight and volumetry via integrated DWS station. Throughput approximately 3,300–3,500 parcels per hour. Ideal for e-commerce small-parcel lines and last-mile depots.

Multi-Line High-Speed Sorting Loop

Two parallel sorting lines combined with a buffer line into one loop, with 5-side barcode reading. Throughput of 5,000+ parcels per hour for parcels from 250g to 40kg, configurable with 50 or 100 exits. Two operational modes on one system — run as two lines with 50 exits, or switch to one line with 100 exits. If one line stops for any reason, the other continues operating.

Why our architecture wins on mid-volume hubs

  • Modular throughput — scale from 2,500 to 5,000+ parcels/h within the same footprint by adding a second line. No rebuild.
  • Operational redundancy — double-line loop means one-line failure never becomes a hub shutdown.
  • Compact vs cross-belt — higher ROI per m² on hubs where cross-belt capex is overkill.
  • Single control layer — one Siemens PLC, one HMI diagnostics surface, one escalation path at 2am.
  • Operator-first — every infeed can become an outfeed and vice versa. Reconfiguration in software, not site visits.

Proven at network scale

Speedy | DPD Bulgaria — part of the DPD and Geopost group, one of Bulgaria’s leading parcel carriers with over one million clients and 42 million parcels processed every year. We have delivered 20 sorting systems across 11 distribution hubs nationwide — both greenfield and retrofit — handling up to 100,000 parcels daily with design capacity for one million. The largest multi-level hub runs more than 30 infeeds and 30 outfeeds. Project timeline from first concept to last commissioning: approximately 20 months.

Trusted by leading operators across Europe — including eushipments and many more — using the same modular architecture tuned to local network design.

"Logisoft is very fast and reliable."
