[QUOTE="Northbaypkg, post: 3974321, member: 58387"] The automated small sort still requires a ton of people. You still need debaggers. Then you have inductors. In our hub, there are 5-6 inductor stations. These people basically place each small on the belt in an empty slot and that belt takes off for the scan tunnel. Then after the scan tunnel the smalls are automatically sorted into the correct bag. Then there's even more people who zip up the full bags, slap the proper label on it, and throw it on the belt. There's about 8-10 people that do this. Then depending on how many smalls you have, they'll still have stations using the old system where you have a person sorting the smalls into the correct bin that lights up automatically and a person on the other side bagging them. So no need to worry about less people. The automated system will have the ability to process a lot more smalls per hour, but will take the same amount of people to do it. [/QUOTE]
