Mixed plastics color sorting recycling machine

Material Recovery Facilities and Plastic Recyclers face biggest challenge to process high volume waste and achieve pure polymer and color sorting.

When you do the recycling  plastic like precess PET. I think its very headache for you about how to sort the discoloured plastic from transparent or white PET ?We still have a long way to go to improve recycling rates, but—for a minute—let’s reflect on how far we’ve come. One technology that has had a great impact on the quality of the produced recycling pellets are optical sorting machines. Our color separator can achieve separation rate of 99.99% purity .Optical  color sorter use spectroscopy, lighting up objects with white light. Each object absorbs light according to its material characteristics, reflecting the remaining rays back to the detection unit. The missing ray allows the machine to classify the type of object, for example HDPE or PET. The machine then ejects undesirable objects. These modern day marvels can also sort plastics by color. Technologies like these automate and enable plastics recycling. 

Sorting by colour and material type

Color sorter Technical Features:  

• Intelligent real-time display of actual material image: Real-time checking the targets marking situation is available in the Touch-screen through the real-time display system of actual material image, which is easy for engineers to adjust sorting parameters both on site and by remote service.

• Full color CCD cameras: Unique vision system converts the captured targets into image signals through CCD cameras, and then transmits the signals to a dedicated image processing system, high resolution CCD color cameras with sharpness up to 0.01mm2 can identify subtle color differences and defects successfully. 
• Customized image algorithm: Advanced image algorithm, which can customize specific algorithm according to different sorting materials: color sorting and shape sorting available.

• Long life and full color LED light source: With uniform color, high brightness, and long life when using the white LED light source in our full colored color sorters.

• Remote interconnection system: Remotely diagnoses each color sorter and assist with equipment operation are available after obtaining customers’ authorization.

• Precise target technology: Accurately identify materials’ defects and impurities, and blow the target defects through the combination of the latest CCD cameras and target positioning program, which can increase the sorting accuracy and reduce the optimized carryover a lot.

• High-quality customized valves: With high frequency and strong motivation, they can accurately blow off some high density materials like minerals, waste metal flakes, etc.

• Uniform feeding system: Different vibrators are used for different materials. We adopt the motor vibrators and electromagnetic vibrators to ensure smooth feeding for different materials.

we also supply other sorting machine for different customers' choice, if you are interested in this product,please consult us!
