Sorting machines are designed to optimize material separation and improve recycling efficiency. Our systems are built to handle a wide range of materials, from plastics and metals to paper, glass, and organic waste.
What Is a Sorting Machine?
A sorting machine is a system that automatically separates different types of materials based on physical properties like size, shape, weight, or material composition. Sorting is essential for increasing recycling efficiency, reducing contamination, and ensuring high-quality outputs in the recycling process.
Types of Sorting Machines
▶ Vibratory Separators
Ideal for sorting by size, weight, and shape. Commonly used in the separation of plastics, glass, and metals.
▶ Air Classifiers
Use air flow to separate lighter materials like paper, film, or plastics from heavier materials like metal and glass.
▶ Magnetic Separators
Specialized for extracting ferrous metals (e.g., steel, iron) from mixed waste streams. Perfect for material recovery from municipal solid waste (MSW).
▶ Optical Sorters
Using high-tech cameras and sensors, optical sorters identify and separate materials based on color, size, or material type. Commonly used for plastic and paper recycling.
▶ Eddy Current Separators
Designed for non-ferrous metal recovery, these machines use a magnetic field to separate metals like aluminum from non-metal waste.
▶ Trommel Screens
Rotating drum systems that separate materials based on size, commonly used for mixed waste or construction and demolition debris.
