Zusammenfassung:The present application relates to an apparatus (10) for sorting a plurality of different objects and a corresponding method. The apparatus (10) comprises at least one first sorting stage (12) with at least two sorting lines (14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5), each having an input end and an output end. The input ends of the sorting lines (14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5) of the first sorting stage (12) are connected to an infeed conveyor (8) for feeding the objects, and the output ends of the sorting lines (14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5) of the first sorting stage (12) are connected to a first transport conveyor (18) for carrying the objects further. Arranged at the output ends of each of the sorting lines (14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5) is an interrupter (15.1, 15.2, 15.3, 15.4, 15.5), which is designed to individually let out objects from the respective sorting line (14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5), and arranged at the output ends of each of the sorting lines is a device (17.1, 17.2, 17.3, 17.4, 17.5) for counting and/or identifying the objects let out of the respective sorting line (14.1, 14.2, 14.3, 14.4, 14.5).
