CI – Polymer Sorter

MEYER CI enables precise separation of different types of plastics, ensuring material purity and consistency at every stage of production. Using infrared technology and multispectral material analysis, the system can distinguish PET, PE, PP, and PVC even when there are no visible differences between them. As a result, the processed material retains its properties, and PET flakes can meet food-grade standards required for food packaging production.

• Accurate polymer identification:
  InGaAs technology combined with multispectral infrared analysis allows for precise detection and separation of various plastic types, such as PET, PE, PP, and PVC, even when their appearance, color, or transparency is very similar. The system analyzes the material’s structure and composition in real time, minimizing the risk of errors and ensuring a clean material stream. This makes it possible to produce uniform, high-quality plastic granulates or flakes that meet stringent industry standards.
• Three-dimensional material analysis:
  The system uses 3D material reconstruction, enabling each item to be accurately mapped in terms of shape, size, color, and material type. Precise positioning allows Maglev ejectors to remove unwanted elements with exceptional accuracy, minimizing material loss. This ensures a consistent material flow, improves sorting repeatability, and effectively prepares the material for subsequent production stages.
• High-speed Maglev ejectors:
  The ejectors respond almost instantaneously, precisely removing unwanted plastics from the material stream. This ensures uninterrupted sorting, minimizes material losses, and allows for a more concentrated waste fraction.
