MikroSort® AF
The MikroSort® AF is designed for special applications with flat glass in the particle size range of 0.5 – 4 mm. The material has been dried and screened into very small particles. This material is mostly contaminated by light and dark off-colors and rubber and foil residues. The input material is scanned as with the type AL, however, because of the reduced working width, one can work with a distinctly higher resolution.
The MikroSort® AF scans bulk goods on a working width of 900 mm in free fall by means of a color line camera. The respective data is evaluated by a freely programmable sorting software of an industrial computer by color, brightness and size into good product and rejected parts. The computer passes this information to 224 fast and robust compressed air valves, each of which serves one compressed air nozzle. Rejected parts are evaluated by position, shape and size and blown out of the material stream by specific jets of compressed air. Depending on the material, particle size distribution and the quantity of rejected material quantities between 8 to 20 t/h with the AX/AL and 2 to 5 t/h with the AF may be sorted.
