ABSTRACT

Devices and systems are provided for improved article sortation. An example
sortation device includes a height adjustable frame and a sortation table
movably attached to the height adjustable frame. The sortation table defines a
first end, a second end opposite the first end, and a body extending
therebetween. The body defines a first surface that supports an article
thereon where a location of the body between the first end and the second end
pivotally attaches the sortation table with the height adjustable frame. The
sortation device performs a tilt operation in which the sortation table
rotates about the pivotal attachment between the second end and the height
adjustable frame so as to convey the article supported by the sortation table.
The height adjustable frame adjusts a vertical position of the sortation table
so as to modify a vertical position at which the article is conveyed.
