About Accu-Sort Systems, Inc. from www.accusort.com
Accu-Sort Systems has been providing engineered solutions to automatic identification challenges since 1971. Today we are the world leader in fixed-position laser and CCD scanners, with more than 80 percent of all parcels shipped in the U.S. passing under our equipment. We serve organizations such as Federal Express, United Parcel Service, FedEx Ground and the U.S. Postal Service.
We serve our customers along two broad lines — bar code scanners and a wide range of integrated, real-time data management systems for wholesale, retail, warehousing, distribution and transportation operations. We provide both line and omnidirectional scanners, including CCD cameras, label printer-applicators and systems for small-item sortation, in-motion scaling, dimensioning, inventory distribution and control and compliance labeling.
For nearly 30 years, we have produced a continuous stream of new products to solve customers' problems and create opportunities for information technology managers. Most recently, we added six-sided scanning tunnels and radio-frequency identification technology to our vast array of offerings. Our high-speed CCD imaging systems, which read both linear bar codes and two-dimensional symbologies, now transmit images to remote keying stations where operators manually enter information to facilitate automated sortation of non-barcoded items.
Every Accu-Sort solution is backed by our team of professional support personnel, including more than 100 field service technicians and our direct sales force in North America, Europe and China. We also have trained representatives in Japan, Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australia.
