The GridSorter is a decentralized controlled, modular conveyor system for efficient and space-saving sorting of goods. It can be flexibly adapted to changing requirements. In this article, the technical structure of GridSorter and the three main processes of its decentralized control are presented. The advantages and limitations arising from modularity and decentralized control are described and a short conclusion concerning potential application scenarios is drawn.
