-Introduction of the automatic parcel singulator:

The automatic parcel singulator system is mainly composed of a scattering belt conveyor, a separation belt conveyor and a visual recognition system. The singulation machine is applied to the front end of various automated sorting schemes. The core function of this parcel singulation equipment is to automatically separate, stretch and intelligently queue up the mixed parcels that before entering the sorting lines so that the messy parcels can become the single row according to the specified spacing. The unloaded stacked parcels are processed onto the same-level platform and sent to the small parcel sorting. Then the gapper is going to separate the parcels horizontally and vertically to create a gap between the parcels and prepare for visual recognition. The transition belt of parcel singulation equipment can ensure the parcels running under stable speed before the visual system measuring. The visual recognition system takes the pictures for the postures of parcels and starts the algorithm so that to make sure the directional dimensions of rotated parcels are within the preset allowance. The visual recognition system of parcel singulation equipment will decide whether to split or merge the detected parcels by algorithm. Cyclical operation enables the singulation machine to adjust the speed of the parcel flow in response to changing levels of demand at the induction.

As the visual recognition of parcel singulator, It is a complex vision system based on artificial intelligence which can accurately detect the shape, size and position of each package. The collected information are transmitted to the control system of parcel singulation equipment that determines the individual separation parameters and adjust the speed of belt. We provide self-developed light infrared binocular 3D camera for the automatic parcel singulator. It has high stability and resistance to ambient light interference. This visual system has innovated high precision algorithm for recognition of parcel's contour. It supports various types of parcels' separation for automatic adhesion states such as left and right, front and rear, high and low. The main purpose of singulation machine's visual system is to achieve precise control of the package and fully automatic single piece separation in the smallest space.

-Advantages of small parcel sorting:

1.This parcel singulation equipment processes at least 4500 parcels per hour. Compared with the traditional manual operation method, it's efficiency can be increased by 5 times.

2.The parcel singulator can reduce manual operation errors, the accuracy of small parcel sorting is as high as 99.5%.

3.The automatic parcel singulator is specifically designed for automatic induction units and loop sortation system.

4.The singulation machine’s visual recognition coverage for parcel’s dimension can be as small as 15mm.

5.The visual system of parcel singulation equipment has modular and stable design with easy installation and maintenance.

6.The automatic parcel singulator has power saving efficiency through variable speed drives and sleep mode.

-Use of singulation machine:

The parcel singulator is commonly used in e-commerce. With the capability to handle a wide variety of items, the automatic parcel singulator provides a single system for handling parcels, flats, totes and sealed bags from the collection and distribution sorting areas.
