ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the exact positioning of the items to be sorted in an automatic sorting plant, comprises a plurality of carriages or units, each provided with a revolving belt which moves in a direction orthogonal to the direction of feed of the unit in order to unload the carried item. The method uses a loading mechanism which comprises a plurality of revolving loading belts, arranged head to head and angled at 45.degree. with respect to the direction of feed of the units. The method according to the invention provides that, at the moment of loading, the unit belt is set in rotation and its speed is adjusted as a function of the speed of the item to be sorted, so that the loading takes place at a null relative total velocity.
