Steinert sorting machines help to recover pure and clean secondary raw materials, both when sorting streams of metal and during waste processing. The new performance app, processing of non-ferrous metals including separation of heavy metals, wood sorting, and recycling of steel are the main focal points at the IFAT trade fair in Munich.
When processing automotive shredder residue (ASR) and incineration bottom ash (IBA) in particular, sensor-based and magnetic technologies allow recyclable material to be sorted and put back into circulation. Since demand for sorting stainless steel content is growing all the time, one feature that Steinert is presenting is the hardware update to the Steinert SteelMaster, which generates pure iron scrap from shredded scrap.
In the area of waste recycling, the focus is on the UniSort PR EVO 5.0. Thanks to its hyperspectral imaging (HSI) camera, this has such a high spatial and spectral resolution that it can recognize and separate different types of wood. When combined with AI-assisted sorting programs, it allows chipboard made from OSB, MDF, or multiplex as well as fresh wood to be sorted by type from coated and painted wood.
Special Steinert.digital stand
For the first time ever, Steinert is dedicating a separate stand to digital issues. Steinert will be presenting its mobile performance app, Steinert.view. The app allows customers to monitor their sensor-based sorting machines from any location. Customers can test the app on various devices directly on the stand. "Intelligent digital solutions" exclusive to waste recycling which allow digital control of plants for processing post-consumer packages or commercial waste, for example, can also be experienced in a Web-App.
Steinert will also inform other areas of the trade fair about sorting solutions. Steinert can be found in the VDMA plastic recycling-themed world and at the VDMA demonstration days, as well as on the innovation stage at the Munich trade fair.
