NIR sorting unit with Hyper Spectral Imaging camera technology for optimal sorting of 2D materials

Up to 50% more throughput than standard systems

Lightweight 2D fractions such as plastic films and bags as well as paper and fibres tend to float up at high belt speeds owing to their low surface weight – which means they can only be sorted in low throughputs by conventional systems. All objects should also lie separately on the belt and overlapping of objects must be prevented for good performance.

This is less of a problem for applications using 3D material, since transfer of the objects onto the acceleration belt usually ensures sufficient separation. This separation process is much more demanding with light 2D components. Because these flat objects cannot be accelerated at the usual high belt speed of 3 m/s.
