Tech/Engineering - Forestry / Wood / Timber / Cross-cut saw system
German term or phrase: Fünffach-Sortierung
Text actually reads Fünfach but I assume this is a typo. Context is a sawing system for cutting timber into specific lengths to be made into shipping crates etc. Mit dem heb- und senkbaren Schiebesystem, der automatischen Materialbeschickung und der Fünfach-Sortierung kappt die Maschine Werkstücke bis xxxx mm sehr wirtschaftlich. Later in the same text: Ein weiteres Förderband bringt die Gutstücke beider Sägen auf dieselbe Sortierstation. Die fünf stabilen Abschieber sortieren alle Gutstücke gemäß der Priorität "Kommissionen". So the five refers to the five Abschieber (deflectors, sorting gate?). Five-gate sorting station? I originally thought the fünffach might be referring to five compartments or sections. Anyone familiar with this kind of technology?

Reference information:
Hope this helps!

D1 Immediate ejection
The cut pieces will be pushed out immediately after the cut onto a receiving table.
As all pieces are aligned to the operator, he can easily do the sorting manually.
This method is most efficient, when operating the machine by only one person.

D1 Abschieben sofort nach erfolgtem Sägeschnitt
Die Maschine schiebt alle Abschnitte auf den Ablagetisch aus.
Die Sortierung erfolgt manuell. Diese Anordnung ist besonders
geeignet, wenn der Zuschnitt von nur 1 Bediener erledigt werden soll.
