Sorting process

From controlled feed to two separated output streams

The technology page explains the decision chain without inventing sensor specifications that were not supplied.

01

Neutral feed

Material is presented to the sorter as a controlled, evenly spread stream so every piece can be inspected on its own.

Configure: Feed size range, moisture condition and how material arrives at the machine.

02

Sensing and recognition

Optical sensing captures the appearance of each piece as it passes the inspection zone, and recognition software reads what the sensors see.

Configure: The visual difference between the material you want to keep and the material you want to remove.

03

Decision

Each piece is compared against your sorting criteria and assigned to the accepted or rejected stream. On the BTKS-1600DW-AI, AI recognition supports this step.

Configure: Sorting criteria, defined with sample material wherever possible.

04

Separation

Pieces assigned to the reject stream are diverted away from the main flow, leaving two separate outputs for downstream handling.

Configure: Output handling and how the two streams leave the machine.
