CLARITY
CLARITY Animation >>
CLARITY is the only three-stream system on the market. This important advantage for efficient processes in a slim plant design is combined with the latest cameras and sensor technology.
Today, the third generation of CLARITY is already being deployed. Not only the design, but also the material used is setting the trend. For the first time, all exterior covers are made of fibreglass-reinforced plastic.
Even the inner life of CLARITY is setting new standards. The sorting widths of 1000mm and 1400 mm available up to now have been supplemented by a new design of 700 mm. The result is a process design flexibly adapted to the most differing customer requirements.
CLARITY doesn’t only recognise contaminants and cullet according to their various colours. The challenge today is in separating glasses with different melting temperatures. Heat-resistant glasses have to be removed from the material stream – the human eye cannot distinguish them from normal cullet.
Legal standards are expanding requirements on modern glass-sorting machines. Glasses with raised heavy metal content, in particular lead, also have to be separated.
In order to live up to these demands, CLARITY analyses information in the ultra-violet and visible-light wavelength ranges. By fusing a UV sensor with a RGB camera, heat-resistant special glasses and lead-containing glasses can be identified and reliably excluded. CLARITY is a real Jack of all trades!
