OMRA’s new AUTOSORT lineup, introduced this past spring, is designed to be compact, highly flexible and upgradable, bringing together multiple technologies, including FLYING BEAM (NIR), SHARP EYE, DEEP LAISER, as well as updated Intelligent Object Recognition software, to deliver complex, artificially intelligent (AI) optical sensorbased sorting of recovered paper and plastics at very high throughput rates. The line, now available worldwide, includes the next-generation AUTOSORT optical sorter, the CYBOT robotic sorter, and SPEEDAIR, a 6m/second high-speed belting system (shown above, left).
