Next Generation SpydIR and ColorPlus™ Recycling Systems : VIDEO: NRT’s Latest Optical Sorting System for the Recycling Industry Debuts in Munich and Vegas
Nashville, Tennessee based National Recovery Technologies (NRT) is to launch its next generation SpydIR® and ColorPlus™ optical sorting systems for the recycling industry at the imminent IFAT and WasteExpo tradeshows in Munich and Las Vegas respectively.
The company, a part of Bulk Handling Systems, said that the new design is a culmination of customer feedback and its own R&D. The new platform incorporates NRT’s proprietary In-Flight Sorting® technology and continuous auto-calibration, and introduces numerous new features which include performance-enhancing design and internalized controls.
The company said that the platform’s shape creates a more controlled ejection pattern and laminar air flow which improves the recovery of fibre and film - commodities that industry wide have lower optical recovery rates than containers.
“For our customers, a couple of percentage points in recovery can significantly impact their bottom line,” said NRT President Matthias Erdmannsdoerfer.
“Through mapping the trajectory of ejected commodities with high-speed cameras, we found that a small percentage were bouncing back and not being recovered. The new units offer a sleek, modern design, but more importantly the new shape provides advanced trajectory control that virtually eliminates “bounce backs” of any ejected objects,” he continued.
Erdmannsdoerfer added that the new design is delivered with an entirely self-contained electrical system and a completely new software package, featuring an intuitive HMI (human machine interface) and powerful analytics delivered by NRT Connect™.
According to the manufacturer, the plug-and-play design allows for a faster installation, commissioning and startup, and delivery of a proven solution.
“We’re not simply a supplier of detection and ejection components. We manage the entire process,” said Erdmannsdoerfer. “Everything is designed to work together, from detection and ejection to flight trajectory. The air and cooling system, an accessible and upgraded ejection block, and larger clear side panels and other improved access points are all designed to deliver recovery, purity and maintenance benefits to the customer. We’re extremely excited to bring these game-changing optical sorters to market.”
