Questions you may want to know about hyperspectral sorting technology
A: Hyperspectral imaging captures continuous spectral information in the 400-1700nm range, forming a "spectral fingerprint," while traditional NIR only captures discrete wavelength data. Hyperspectral technology has significant advantages for difficult-to-identify materials such as black plastics, dark films, and multi-layer composite films, with higher identification accuracy. Additionally, hyperspectral data contains richer information, providing greater optimization space for AI algorithms.
A: Depending on material type and sorting precision requirements, single-channel throughput ranges from 500 kg/h to 3 tons/h. We can customize multi-channel systems based on your capacity needs, flexibly scaling processing capability. For ultra-large-scale customers, we also offer production-line-level overall solutions.
A: Depending on the model, equipment length ranges from 2 to 6 meters, height approximately 1.5-2 meters, and width approximately 1-2 meters. We can provide complete workshop layout plans, supporting integration with your existing production lines or use as standalone sorting stations.
A: Based on customer case statistics, the payback period typically ranges from 8 to 18 months, depending on material value, purity improvement, local market prices, labor cost savings, and other factors. Some high-quality projects can recover investment within 1 year.
A: Our equipment features a modular design for convenient spare part replacement. The software supports remote diagnostics and OTA upgrades, allowing most issues to be resolved through remote maintenance. We provide a one-year free warranty and lifetime technical support, with regular on-site inspections by technical personnel.
A: Our system can identify over 20 common plastic materials including PE, PP, PVC, PET, PS, ABS, PC, and PA. We have mature solutions for various scenarios such as films, flakes, mixed daily plastics, home appliance dismantling materials, and automotive dismantling materials. Special materials can also be developed on demand.
