Brand Cross-border E-commerce Pick-and-sort Warehouse

This brand-owned cross-border warehouse stores and ships a full product range using a pick-and-sort workflow. The system went live in October 2024 and has run stably ever since.

Before automation, the project faced these operational pressures.

• The cross-border e-commerce platform handled many SKUs, including many small and cylindrical items
• Manual picking errors created customer complaints and affected the brand service experience
• The original cross-belt sorter required paper boxes for small-item sorting and box recycling consumed significant labor

Tegene configured the solution around site flow, parcel profile and throughput goals.

• Customized a four-layer 3D Sorter M with 360 chutes and six induction stations
• Configured equipment around a pick-and-sort workflow
• Used stable conveying and chute delivery to reduce irregular-item dropping problems

A customized four-layer 3D Sorter M with 360 chutes and six induction stations stabilizes delivery for small, cylindrical and irregular items.

• The project has operated stably since entering the site in October 2024
• Supports full-category cross-border e-commerce warehousing and distribution
• Reduces paper-box circulation and manual handling pressure for small, cylindrical and irregular items

A four-layer 3D Sorter M with 360 chutes and six induction stations supports pick-and-sort workflows for full-category, small, cylindrical and irregular items.

Useful for similar industry customers, system integrators and warehouse operators evaluating sortation automation.

If this project looks like yours, having site space, volume, parcel profile and system interface details ready makes it much faster to size the equipment.

• Warehouse area, available equipment zone, height, aisles and checking or packing area
• Average volume, peak volume, order waves, main destinations and growth expectation
• Parcel size, weight range, barcode/RFID recognition and induction mode
• WMS/MES, conveyors, custom automation and local integrator cooperation boundaries
