REDWAVE C is an optical sorting system for colour recognition. For working in the field of mineral sorting, the machine is equipped with a RGB camera.

Sensor system:

This sorting machine works with a high-resolution RGB camera.

Functional principle:

Infeed material is spread over the entire REDWAVE sorting width by a vibration feeder or an acceleration belt. The material is then scanned and identified by the sensor system (single or double sided sensing), while in free fall. If the identified minerals meet the set ejection parameters, a signal is sent to the ejection units. Individual high speed air jets, operated by compressed air, eject the identified mineral. The number of activated solenoids depends on the size of the identified part.

Machine data:

  • Sorting width: 600 - 2000mm
  • Capacity: depending on the material and grain size
