Part Sorting Table

Yes. The Novo sorting table is designed to work in both configurations. Its durable construction makes it suitable as a permanent fixture on a production line, but it can also be repositioned as production needs change. If mobility is a priority, discuss this with us when requesting a quote and we can explore appropriate options for your setup.

Yes. Every Novo MFE sorting table can be built to your specific requirements. Whether you need a compact table for a tight space or a larger unit for a high-volume line, we can adjust the dimensions and design to fit your operation. Custom configurations for specific product lines or workflow layouts are also available — contact us to discuss your needs.

Yes. The Novo sorting table can be configured with a barrel or basket hanger positioned above the table surface. This allows parts to be deposited directly from a plating barrel or basket down into the sorting area, reducing manual handling steps and improving throughput on the line.

A sorting table gives operators a controlled, consistent inspection point where rejected parts can be tagged and separated before they move downstream. When integrated with digital tools such as barcode scanners or vision systems, the sorting station can become a formal traceability checkpoint — logging defect types, tracking rejection trends, and feeding data back to upstream processes. This is particularly valuable in regulated industries where part traceability is required.

Yes. Polypropylene is naturally resistant to most plating chemicals, oils, and cleaning agents, and its smooth surface wipes down quickly between batches. This helps maintain a clean inspection environment and prevents cross-contamination between different part runs.

Yes. The Novo sorting table features an adjustable height mechanism so operators can set the working surface at the right level for their height and task. This reduces repetitive-motion strain and fatigue, which is especially important on shifts where operators are sorting parts continuously over several hours.

Our sorting tables are used across a wide range of industries that rely on metal finishing, including automotive, aerospace, medical device manufacturing, electronics, and industrial hardware. Any operation running barrel or rack plating at volume and requiring consistent quality control at an inspection point can benefit from a dedicated sorting station.

A part sorting table provides a dedicated workspace where operators can inspect, sort, and organize parts before, during, or after the finishing process. In a metal finishing environment, this typically means checking for defects such as incomplete plating, surface imperfections, burrs, or contamination before parts move on to coating, packaging, or shipment. A well-placed sorting station helps catch quality issues early, reducing scrap and costly rework downstream.

The parts chute includes a removable door that gives operators control over how and when parts flow through the sorting area. This prevents parts from escaping prematurely, keeps the sorting area organized, and allows operators to pause the flow if they need to address a quality issue or reposition a container. It's a simple feature that makes a meaningful difference in day-to-day operation.

The table surface is made from high-quality polypropylene, which resists corrosion, stains, and chemical exposure — making it well suited for metal finishing environments. The frame is constructed from a robust aluminum extrusion, built to hold up under the demanding conditions of manufacturing and assembly lines.
