STEINERT US (Walton, KY) introduces the UniSort Film sensor sorter, with the ability to efficiently and accurately sort paper, plastic film and bags to help recyclers reach today's export paper grade standards. The challenge for sorting lightweight plastics and paper is the flyaway nature of the material. STEINERT addresses this challenge with its state-of-the-art Active Object Control (AOC) System. The AOC is a stabilizing system which controls the way the material is sent through the equipment for sorting, keeping material from getting trapped in the machinery and causing damage. Using air injection at the beginning of the process allows the material to be spread out before it reaches the belt, resulting in higher purity and recovery of the end product. AOC also enables the UniSort Film to operate at close to three times higher belt speed in comparison to standard settings, providing higher throughput with better sorting results.
