Zusammenfassung:A diverter assembly for handling articles transported on a conveying surface (113) is disclosed. The diverter assembly includes at least one diverter arm (130a, 130b) and a motor (260) coupled to a drive arrangement for swinging the diverter anu over the conveying surface (113). An inverter controller is provided for operating the motor at a plurality of speeds. A sensor arrangement (831) is coupled to the inverter controller for monitoring the position of the diverter arm. The sensor arrangement sends a slow-down signal to the inverter controller when the diverter arm reaches a pre-determined position, causing the inverter controller to operate the motor at a slower speed.
