Sorting techniques

How materials are sorted and processed

How we sort materials

Some of the techniques we use to sort effectively.

3D trommel screen

Our patented screening technology to prevent the passage of elongated waste components that would otherwise cause much disruption in the subsequent sorting process.

Optical (NIR) separator

Using advanced detection, and ejection by compressed air, we enable automated sorting of wood, various types of plastic, paper, textiles, cardboard, etc.

Windshifter

The windshifter separates materials of different weights from the sorting line by means of a powerful airflow. Heavier and lighter materials are discharged separately.

2D trommel screen

The screen trommel separates the material flow to be processed based on size. The small part fraction to be sieved disappears through the perforation of the trommel screen, while the large part fraction is discharged to the end of the trommel.

Vibrating Screen

The flat screen or vibrating screen is designed to meet the high demands of the recycling industry, with optimum processing of large masses of material for maximum screening performance and clean screening quality. It is characterised by its wide range of applications, interchangeable screening decks and optional machine cover.

Trommel washer

Using a trommel washer, the dirty fraction, for example plastic films, is washed clean.

Sink-float separator

In a water basin, the heavy and light fractions are separated based on the difference in buoyancy.

Conveyor belts

Conveyor belts are a very common method for continuous transport of loose materials and are used in almost every solution for a sorting process.

Dosing bunker

The bunker ensures a measured product flow to the sorting line. To prevent irregular operation, disruptions or congestion, a metered, continuous product flow is crucial for the supply to a complete sorting line.

Sorting cabin

Waste is sorted manually on a well-lit sorting belt in a sorting cabin with fresh air supply. A good workplace on the sorting belt makes it possible to work in a neutral body position and provides the opportunity for variation in body position.
