What is PAS (Piece Assorting System)?

PAS is a self-contained piece-assorting system that automates the work of sorting small items by store and by category at the individual piece level. This mixed-order sorting system is a combination of a high-performance piece sorter and information management system. With its simple, tool-like operation, there is no need to train a dedicated operator.

The ultimate tool for increasing labor efficiency, that is the core concept of PAS.

PAS is much more than just a sorting conveyor.
It’s a cutting-edge sorting system that responds to your company’s ideas and is as easy to use as any traditional tool.

Feature

High-precision, low-stress

Quantity counting work is where human error manifests itself most, undermining the strict delivery accuracy that customers demand now more than ever. Letting PAS take over quantity counting tasks not only relieves stress on workers, but also reduces the delivery error rate to almost zero.

Boosting manufacturing power through team play

Today, there is an increasing demand for deliveries by section, and the majority of time taken in conventional picking is spent on labor. PAS enables team play, where each worker has an individual role instead of repeating tasks done by other workers. This means that productivity increases even with the same number of workers, allowing work to proceed unhindered by focusing on sections and maintaining a high level of delivery service.

Simple, foolproof operation

Increasing the level of delivery service drives up costs, and cutting costs drives down the level of service. PAS is a sensible solution to this dilemma. That’s because it was designed as a tool, allowing anyone to use it without ever making a mistake – there’s no need for a dedicated operator.

Utilizes individual product management data

PAS surpasses the questionable reliability of vague aggregate data, eliminating errors in quantity checks, sorting by store and by item category. Also, unlike a fully automatic machine, PAS does involve handling work, meaning that product abnormalities (broken goods, etc.) can be easily singled out.

Compatible with a wide range of product shapes

Because PAS can transfer products with a variety of shapes and sizes, you can continue using it even if your company’s product line changes after installation.
