System for packaging and labelling of sorted products

摘要

A system for sorting and packaging of products includes sorting means including a plurality of sorting stations, recordal means including one or more processing units and packaging means for packaging one or more of the products to produce a packaging unit. Each of the processing units includes a processor operatively associated with one or more of the sorting stations and a labelling means operatively associated with the processor. The processor records information in one or more predetermined fields relevant to the products being sorted. In use the products are sorted and a single label is then produced by the recordal means and applied to the packaging unit. The label includes at least part of the information and is printed in a human readable format, electronic readable format or both human and electronic readable formats. The single label is used as the sole indicator for tracking and further processing purposes.
