Today, accurate and quick order-picking and distribution are key to successful business performance. Maintaining your operations at optimal standards means creating the most reliable and highest-quality system possible, and for that, you need the best partner you can find.
Growing demand of B2C has resulted in the emergence of multiple delivery models and distribution hub types:
- Receivingย Centres
- Fulfillmentย Centres
- Sortationย Centres
- Traditional Distributionย Centres
Most of these involve a basic model of receiving (infeed), sorting and dispatching (outfeed) which we concentrate on in this section.
โNot only do we have quality belting for logistics, we go one step further through our fabrication and service capabilities. Trust our dedicated service professionals to improve your uptime.โ

Un collettore (APS) trasforma un semplice sistema di gestione di merce sfusa in un sistema ergonomico ad alta efficienza operativa per controllare il flusso dei pacchi a valle e a monte.
Principali sfide
- Efficiency, belts working in sync together
- Need of different belts (e.g. flat belts, roller drive belts, and PU or PVC-coated belts), all capable of delivering high-performance and durability
Soluzioni
- Fortunately, Ammeraal Beltech is your One-Stop Belt Shop and we can provide, install and service all the different belts that your APS requires
La fase operativa in cui vengono accumulati (raccolti) i pacchi garantendone un flusso costante in fase di induzione.
Principali sfide
- Wear and tear
- Belt longevity
- Good tracking needed due to uneven loads
Soluzioni
- Good hard polymer top covers providing the low COF (coefficient of friction) and durability necessary for this stage
- Our EX fabric construction to resist wear & tear but provide good tracking characteristics
Questa fase prevede il trasporto dei pacchi al sorter, attraverso piรน sezioni (da 4 a 6).
Principali sfide
