We can safely say that many technologies are tested here, and only then they go out into the world. However, it is not only CeMAT RUSSIA that demonstrates the prevalence of the digital agenda.
Dear readers! This is the ninth issue of the journal, which turned out to be very rich and diverse. Traditionally, the issue is opened by an analyst.

Dear readers! We present to your attention the eighth issue of the magazine and its materials.
Annotation. The article determines the specific cost of sorting and the optimal number of sorting channels for the following commodity sorting algorithms: one-stage with, continuous feed to the conveyor from the reception; multi-stage with continuous supply to the conveyor from the receiving station; multi-stage with periodic feeding to the conveyor from the acceptance; multi-stage with complex sorting; two-stage with pre-sorting. The dependence of the daily capacity of the sorter on the number of channels is shown. The analysis of the total unit costs for sorting by 300 goals showed that the minimum unit costs are provided by the pre-sorting scheme.
Key words. Sorting goods in a warehouse, sorter, sorting channels, sorting scheme, sorting algorithm, cost of sorting operations, cost of sorting system, fulfillment.
