The IDL system for item detection performs an analysis of letters and parcels on continuous belts, tilt trays and cross belt conveyor systems. The IDL system provides information about the number of items, their position and other characteristics used to increase throughput by reducing missorts and optimizing the off load process. Reliable operation of the sorter requires adequate distance between packages and the detection of packages that are on top of each other. IDL provides accurate singulation verification and classifies packages as singles or doubles. A strength of IDL is its use of both 3D shape and 2D grayscale imaging. Using laser triangulation for 3D imaging is ideal for small- to medium-sized items. Items as small as 2 mm high can be accurately analyzed, increasing efficiency in product streams that contain both flats and packages. By measuring position, volume, occupied area and product overhang, the IDL system increases throughput and efficiency of the sorter.
