Method and apparatus for synchronizing the distribution information for a sorting item with the information relating to a sorting element provided with this sorting item

摘要

The method involves preparing an image from the overlay of a sorter element (3) before and after the feeding of the sorted material at the sorter element. The occupancy of this sorter element with the sorted material is detected by image comparison. The information identified before the feeding about the sorted material is definitely assigned to the sorter element identified as fed. An independent claim is included for a sorting and distribution system, which has an arrangement for synchronization of distributing information of a sorted material.
