Automated sorting only works well when the decision rules are clear.
SSI has a short video showing an automated sorting system in action:
The motion is the visible part. The important planning happens before product reaches the line. A sorting or verification process gets stronger when the team knows what decision the system needs to make, what counts as pass or fail, how parts should be handled, and what should happen after each result.
That planning can include photos or samples, pass/fail criteria, quantities, work instructions, packaging requirements, labels, and any traceability or logging needs. Without those inputs, a system may still move product, but the output can be harder to verify, route, or defend later.
For sorting, containment, inspection, or verification work, the goal is not movement alone. The goal is controlled handling around clear criteria and a predictable output.
This is also why the post stays facility-safe: it focuses on the process, not customer-identifying parts, labels, drawings, or paperwork.
If this is showing up in your process, send SSI the product photos, process context, quantities, and the decision the system needs to make.
