[Warehouse](https://rual.nl/en/warehouse) > Conveyors and sorters

# Your sorting line runs on the same software as your orders.

No interface between two systems that only half understand each other. Core knows the order and drives the belt, in one environment, at the same moment.

## From scan to pusher, with nothing in between.

A scan point reads a parcel, the system knows which order it belongs to, and the belt is told where to send it within the same cycle. There is no queue between knowing and acting.

- Destination per parcel decided on the order as it stands right now

- Pushers, diverts and lifts driven from the flow itself

- Feedback per station, so you see the pinch point before the line stops

- Manual actions and faults land in the same log

## Sorting logic you can change yourself.

A peak, a new customer or an extra station is not a months-long project. The rules live in flows, not in the control cabinet.

- **Dynamic sorting** — Products go to whichever destination is right at that moment: a chute, a workstation or a buffer. Change the order and the destination changes with it.

- **Spreading the work** — When a workstation fills up, the line pushes tasks on to a quieter one. Without anyone having to move staff around.

- **Picking on the line** — Staff get their instruction by scanner, voice or colour signal, matched to whatever works at that station.

- **Put-away and shelving** — Products are routed to the storage spot that takes the least movement, with support for heavy parcels and tight locations.

## The label comes out at the right station.

Core drives ZPL label printers natively, with no layer from an outside integrator in between. The right label, at the right station, the moment the parcel passes it.

- Shipping and product labels from the same flow as the order

- Label design belongs to your environment, not to the printer supplier

- Carrier labels through integrations including PostNL

- Every printed label traceable to an order, a station and a timestamp

## Runs on the hardware already on your floor.

We do not replace your installation. We take over control from the layer that can no longer keep up, and connect to what is there.

## What the control layer does.

| Term | Def |
| --- | --- |
| Control | Belts, pushers, diverts, lifts and scan points, driven from the same flows as your orders. |
| Feedback | Every movement reports back, with execution times per step down to the millisecond. |
| Simulation | A new sorting rule runs on real data first, before it touches the line. |
| Faults | Alerts arrive where your operation is already looking, with the order and the station attached. |
| Expansion | An extra chute or workstation is added in the flow, not in a new project. |

### A sorting line that has been running for years.

At W.K. Heyl Jr., Core drives the sorting line that gets fresh flowers to German florists within 12 hours, three times a week.

## More on warehouse.

[Warehouse overview →](https://rual.nl/en/warehouse)

- **[WMS](https://rual.nl/en/warehouse/wms)** — Receiving, put-away, picking logic and stock you can trust. The system that decides what goes onto the line.

- **[Administration](https://rual.nl/en/warehouse/administration)** — From order to paid invoice, connected to Exact, Mollie and SEPA.

- **[Robotics](https://rual.nl/en/robotics)** — Where the belt ends: pick-and-place, vision and autonomous cells on the same platform.

## Is your sorting line falling behind your orders?

Let us spend a day on your floor. After that you know what your existing installation can still do.
