Positek RFID communicates with your existing Route Accounting Software or CA Track to create electronic lots. An electronic lot is a logical grouping of uniquely identified articles which may be garments, flat work, or any other item. The lots can be created from a soil count or can be created based upon a model that uses the history of what articles have been seen in the plant for the last x weeks. As garments are scanned at your existing presort system, which can be slick rails or conveyor, CA Sort will sort those articles into the appropriate lot. As each article's RFID tag is scanned at the sorting station, the operator is notified by a voice prompt and on the screen to place the article on the appropriate hook. If using a spider sort, a light also illuminates over the appropriate rail.

Positek's approach to the sort process is to use as much of the existing infrastructure as possible while obtaining optimal efficiency. The first sort can be completed on either a spider rail system or moving graduated hook conveyor system. The final sort can be completed on our 32 slot CA Sort Bay or on a graduated hook conveyor system. In either case, your final sort is at least twice as fast, error free.

The system is so easy to use that any employee can be trained to sort without lengthy training or supervision. No more trying to decode a man readable label and determine where to place the garment. The operator just scans each garment and places it on the appropriate rail or hook. The voice prompts are given in the language needed for the individual operator. Any changes or adjustments caused by holidays or weather are made by management. The simply continues to scan and hang.

The cost to implement CA Sort is typically returned in 24 months. Every operation is slightly different. Let us review your current process and provide a proposal that will have a positive effect on your operating costs including labor and merchandise, customer satisfaction, and your bottom line.
