SPEKTRUM CE-G
Off-colour separation system for glass recycling applications
Spektrum colour separation systems are designed for the glass recycling industry to remove off-colours from glass cullet. The material to be inspected is spread out on an external feeder and reaches the glass slide where the pieces are further individualised before continuing into the inspection area of the CCD linear camera. If an off-colour contaminant is detected its exact location is determined. Electronics evaluate this position and ejection nozzles are activated with pinpoint accuracy and at precisely the right time to blow out the contaminant. The ejection nozzles are so precise that the contaminant is removed with very little loss of cullet. The rest of the cullet then continues along the conveyor.
