HDPE sorter separater PET recycle

Overview

The SpydIR-R is an advanced infrared sorting system that separates numerous selected polymers from a mixed stream.

It uses proprietary technology and fast, highly sensitive algorithms to rapidly identify unique polymer signatures from their infrared spectra.

This advanced technology is available in two models: the SpydIR-R, which uses reflective detection, and the SpydIR-T, which utilizes transmissive detection.

While other optical sorters detect material over the belt and eject some time later, NRT offers In-Flight Sorting, which detects and ejects material in flight.

In-Flight Sorting enables the use of transmissive detection and eliminates
motion-related error and belt interference, increasing purity levels and hit rates.
