Nested Sorting Configuration
Nested sorting is typically used for tolerance-based sorting where an acceptable % or value range
is defined for each BIN #. First, the 3550 evaluates the measured value according to the defined
range of BIN 1. If the measured falls within the range of BIN 1 then the component is sorted into
BIN 1. If the measured value falls outside of the BIN 1 range then it is evaluated for BIN 2. If the
component value falls within the BIN 2 range then it is sorted into BIN 2. If not, then the 3550
proceeds the evaluation to BIN 3 and so on. If the measured value does not fall within any defined
ranges then the component will be sorted into BIN 0, the reject BIN.
