AI-powered systems use computer vision, deep learning, and near-infrared (NIR) sensors to identify materials by size, shape, weight, brand, and chemical composition with unprecedented accuracy. ...
This is where PICVISA's technology plays a critical role — using advanced optical sensors, NIR/SWIR hyperspectral cameras, AI, and robotics to sort textiles by composition and color at industrial scale, enabling true textile circularity. ...
An optical sorter uses high-resolution cameras, near-infrared (NIR) sensors, and image processing algorithms to identify and differentiate materials in a mixed stream on a conveyor belt. ...
Common contaminants include non-battery electronic components from mixed WEEE streams, construction materials from inadequately screened collection streams, and biological contaminants from storage and transport. Multi-sensor optical sorters detect these contaminants through combined XRT density analysis and NIR polymer classification, rejecting non-conforming ...
The pharmaceutical industry is under constant pressure to ensure product integrity, regulatory compliance, and efficiency in manufacturing. As production processes become more complex, the need for real-time, data-driven quality control has never been greater. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is essential for advanced monitoring of drug manufacturing, enabling rapid, non-destructive analysis ...
Developing a Cost-Efficient Strategy for Continuous Quality Monitoring of Feed Ingredients Rich-protein grain, cereals, oilseeds and various by-products are the common feed ingredients for poultry and swine. In recent years, farmers worldwide are struggling with the increasing prices of raw materials which resulted in the need to maintain optimal livestock performance in a cost-effective manner. ...
This technology can be used with RGB color cameras, which provide information about what the image is, or cameras with near infrared spectroscopy (NIR) sensors that, on the other hand, tell us what type of material the object is made of. ...
Materials identified are amongst others cotton, viscose, wool, polyester and different mixtures of materials. ECOFLOW has NIR and RGB sensors and is powered with the state of the art AI algorithms. ...
When it comes to factory production, for almost all industries, moisture content is an essential measurement that you need. Not only can the moisture levels damage a specific product but if the level is too high or low, it can affect the way that your product performs and its overall quality. Learn more about how MoistTech uses NIR technology to allow you to get precise and exact ...
Producers focus to minimize cost, reduce waste, increasing product quality, and maximizing plant efficiency. Wasted efforts are certainly a drain on resources in addition to wasted product, creating the need to evaluate and implement lean manufacturing principles. Identifying the key areas in which the manufacturing process is not operating at its peak efficiency provides the framework for ...
Moisture measurement is crucial in food processing operations for a multitude of reasons: Knowing the moisture content of the materials used throughout the food and baking process has become one of the most critical components in the industry as many raw materials sold today are based upon weight. MoistTech moisture sensors can provide a quick test of the moisture levels of the ...
The MoistTech series of online moisture sensors for measurement and control are designed for full real time process control, developed for instant non-contact measurement for all types of moisture sensor applications. MoistTech sensors are engineered to allow users to optimize their process and dramatically improve product quality. Unsurpassed in performance, stability, reliability, ...
Immediate results: The sensor produces hundreds of readings per second to allow the user to have immediate access to the product moisture content, allowing for increased or decreased dryer control. All equipment included: Everything needed to operate the sensor is included and the software can be installed on an unlimited number of devices, allowing for better ...
MoistTech Corp manufactures a range of on-line sensors & at-line instruments for moisture measurement and real-time moisture process control. ...
While moisture is our major focus, we also supply analyzers for the continuous online measurement of protein, fat/oil, sugar, seasonings, caffeine and other constituents/elements that absorb the NIR beam. Realizing that many food processing companies use many primary reference measurements, either in-house or outsourced, MoistTech's NIR moisture ...
After that, it is conveyed to the first 3-way sorting machine (REDWAVE NIR 2000). There, PET and HDPE are positively ejected by means of pressurised air in the first step and TETRA in a second step. ...
The colour sorting, including recovery using REDWAVE is done in the next steps. With the REDWAVE NIR/C, the different materials and colours can be identified and separated efficiently. ...
In addition, Thermoteam found out that there is still a very high amount of PET-drink bottles in the input material, which is high in value and worth removing in the new plant. Solution The two REDWAVE 2800 NIR units are located directly behind the shredding machine and separate PVC and PET from the SRF stream. An additional REDWAVE 1200 NIR separates the PVC ...
These wavelengths are slightly longer than those of visible light and are located in the near-infrared (NIR) band. Light reflected in the NIR band correlates to the biological processes in plant material. ...
After that the remaining waste stream is sieved and divided into the following fractions: 0-80mm, 80-160mm, 160-300mm and The two remaining fractions will then be sorted with 2 REDWAVE NIR machines. The first NIR sorter is used for the 80-160mm fraction and the second NIR machine for the 160-300mm fraction. ...
