Hygienic sorting conveyorsGently diverts products while maintaining integrity and orientation at speeds up to four times faster than standard pusher and paddle arms.

Intralox Active Integrated Motion (AIM) Sorters allow you to redirect product at different angles and high speeds while maintaining product orientation. The equipment’s automated moving pegs and single-sculpted, robust belt design provide gentler handling than fixed rails, pusher and paddle arms, or conventional labor. AIM Sorters allow manufacturers to eliminate unscheduled downtime and increase throughput while running line speeds as fast as 200 ft (61 m) per minute.

AIM Sorters enhance performance across your line, especially in these applications:

  • Sorters
  • Reject sorters
  • Line balancing assignment
  • Rework lines and line diverters
  • Checkweighers over and under weighing diverters

Designed for a washdown environment, AIM belting’s single-sculpted and robust design allows for easy cleanability in critical sorting areas.


The smart design of the AIM Sorter provides good flexibility and offers an ergonomic solution that simplifies our working station.
