Large wholesale bakeries often use LED displays for a paperless dispatch order system. Such “Put-to-Light” systems offer a good performance and high quality for the distribution of bakery products in large bakeries of 200+ distribution and delivery points.

For smaller wholesale bakeries that typically work with lists on paper, the upfront investment for such systems is prohibitively high, and there is a need for a most cost-effective solution. The unique Vision Sorting system by ART4L fills this gap.

Without the need for investing in screens, cabling, converters and other site-wide hardware, ART4L’s Vision Sorting solution offers similar methods and performance as a classic “Put-to-Light” system, simply by providing operators with a SmartGlass and marking sites with printable visual tags.

A Vision Sorting system has a typical return on investment of less than one year for bakeries serving between 50 and 200 distribution points and can be installed quickly and easily.
