Lyngsoe Sorter Controller™: Take Control of Your Library’s Sorting Strategy
Experience enhanced control and seamless optimization for your automated material handling system with Lyngsoe Sorter Controller™. Enhance your library's efficiency through our intuitive, web-based software that enables you to fine-tune sorting strategies, monitor system performance, and respond proactively to peak demand.
Seamless System Control at Your Fingertips
Sorter Controller is an intuitive, web-based software tool, which enables you to independently establish and adjust your sorting strategies (sort tables) for the Lyngsoe Sort Mate™ 2000 sorting system.
It provides graphical overview statistics and detailed data to support optimal use of available inductions and destinations.
By understanding actual usage patterns across key parts of the sorting system, you can make data-driven decisions on how to best assign categories to sorting destinations and how to improve the use of underutilized inductions.
Take Control of Your Sorting Strategies
The step-by-step approach to building sort tables (defining the logic that connects chosen categories to available sorting destinations) is straightforward to set up and optimize. Accessible on both PC and tablet, it allows users to easily create or adjust sorting strategies and its multi-language support makes it usable for all staff.
Sorter Controller goes beyond traditional static sorting tables. For example, a dynamic “waterfall” strategy across multiple destinations, such as for children’s books, can help prevent bottlenecks and maximize capacity – ideal for when large numbers of materials are returned during unmanned hours or holiday periods.
Improve Operational Efficiency and Control
We understand that some sorting tables are highly detailed to support minimal handling of items when returning them to the shelves. However, this level of complexity can sometimes result in items being directed to unexpected destinations. With the convenient ‘look-up’ feature, it is easy to identify and correct any sorting logic errors that caused an item to be sent to a particular destination.
The ‘nearly full’ early warning feature also supports operational efficiency by enabling your staff to act in advance and prevent destinations from reaching capacity.
In addition, the database accurately tracks where items are sorted, allowing the search function to quickly locate an item requested by a patron – even before it has been returned to the shelf.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the “waterfall” sorting strategy work using Lyngsoe Sorter Controller™?
Sorter Controller supports “waterfall” strategies, meaning it can cascade items across multiple destinations. For example, during high-volume return periods, such as holiday seasons, items can be dynamically distributed to available destinations to maximize capacity and maintain smooth system flow.
How does Lyngsoe Sorter Controller™ help avoid full destinations?
Sorter Controller provides early-warning notifications when a destination is nearing capacity, so staff can act before it fills up completely. It also tracks where each item was sorted, helping you understand which categories go where and why.
How accurate is Lyngsoe Sorter Controller™?
Our precision control system, which uses photoelectric sensors, encoders, and intelligent software, means you can precisely track and discharge items. If something goes wrong (for example, an item goes to the wrong chute), the controller can backtrack to diagnose whether it was a strategy error or a full destination.
