Automated material handling solutions provider Intelligrated<\/a>\u2019s dynamic discharge compensation (DDC) technology was as a 2016 MHI<\/a> innovation award winner. The IntelliSort cross-belt sorter with DDC emerged from a pool of 98 submissions before judges selected it as the winner from a group of three other finalists in the best innovation to an existing product category.<\/p>\n

The innovative DDC technology uses the same software and hardware already included on the IntelliSort cross-belt sorter, but combines an algorithm with a vision system to determine the most accurate discharge trajectory based on item location on the carrier belt, product dimensions and chute location. This increased precision results in 99.99% sortation accuracy, it said, cuts energy consumption in half and minimizes manual touches.<\/p>\n

\u201cInnovation holds special significance to the material handling industry and Intelligrated<\/a>. With the market looking to push supply chain performance to ever-greater heights, the commitment to new breakthroughs and continuous improvement is the perfect formula to push our industry forward and provide more value to our customers,\u201d said Jerry Koch, director, corporate marketing and product management. \u201cWe appreciate MHI<\/a> recognizing the innovation efforts of Intelligrated and running an awards program that supports one of the cornerstones of our industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
