Simtech Automation have an excellent aluminium slick rail, which allows the individual hangers to glide quietly and effortlessly along the slick rail unlike the conventional steel slick rail systems which require the rail to be waxed. With the easily manipulated switch points it makes manual transportation of single garments extremely easy without any falling from the slick rail onto the floor.
For the more automated systems Simtech automation have a variety of conveyors ranging from power and free, brush, screw, hook, pin and clip to enable storage and transportation of the items.
The garments can be fully tracked and sorted using barcode or RFID. Simtech Automation also supply an automated hook sorter that’s capable of sorting 12,000 garments/hour. The system can operate with plastic and metal hangers, which can be automatically loaded and unloaded onto a SimRail trolley. If the items cannot be fitted onto a hanger then they can be stored in a pouch.
