Bühler highlights Sortex technology
Bühler, a leading company in optical sorting technology, is exhibiting at the Plastics Recycling World Expo in Cleveland. The company says it considers its Sortex technology to be highly suited for the challenges faced by US plastics recyclers. “Millions of tons of plastics are produced in
the US each year, yet only a small fraction is being recycled. In order to maximise plastics recycling while minimising waste, Bühler developed Sortex plastic sorting technologies to help companies meet the high-quality demands of the food industry in regard to rPET flakes,” says the company. “Both recyclers and food packaging proces- sors can benefit from utilising our range of optical sorters as it will allow the production of recycled material with a close to virgin quality. Our two-machine solution enhances purity and enables the use of 80 to 100% recycled material with only 20 to 0% of virgin material for food packaging production. “This purity is made possible by the combina-
tion of different Sortex technologies allowing the removal of both colour and polymer contami- nants. The Sortex B range provides an efficient and consistent colour sorting and foreign material detection, while our polymer sorter, the Sortex E PolyVision detects and removes same colour polymer contaminants (PVC, PP, and PE) and reduces the percentage of other polymers such as PS, PA (Nylon), POM flakes and silicon. Used together, they are offering an unrivalled accept quality and reject concentration perfor- mance for an optimised yield.” �
