Sensor-based sorting

Sensor-based sorting, is an umbrella term for all applications where particles are singularly detected by a sensor technique and rejected by an amplified mechanical, hydraulic or pneumatic process. The technique is generally appliled in the three industries mining, recycling and food processing and used in the particle size range between 0,5mm and 300mm. Since sensor-based sorting is a single particle separation technology, the throughput is proportinal to the average particle size and weight fed onto the machine.
