REDWAVE CX

Sort smarter, not harder - the power of intelligent sensor-based sorting!

REDWAVE CX is a sensor-based sorting machine developed for the GLASS RECYCLING sector to achieve high-performance colour sorting and contaminant separation. It enables efficient and cost-effective operation of the system. The machine can effectively separate different impurities such as glass ceramics, CSP, and metal using a single sorting machine. The modular design allows for different sorting tasks, resulting in cost and energy savings.

Additionally, this sensor-based sorting machine is capable of recovering valuable coins from SCRAP METAL. The REDWAVE CX coin sorter offers an economical solution for the recovery of these metals. Otherwise, they may have been lost or sold as cheap heavy metal. The sorting process is fully automated, making it a reliable and efficient way to recover these metals.

REDWAVE CX ADVANTAGES

MOST ADVANCED FLINT GLASS SORTING

INCREASE OF QUALITY AND PROFIT
With REDWAVE CX, different qualities of flint glass can be produced. This makes it possible to produce the highest flint glass quality and customised combination, which in turn increases the use of cullet, and offers a valuable contribution to the cycle
EXPANSION OF THE CUSTOMER PORTFOLIO
Different qualities of flint glass opens up new possibilities for glass processors.

Dark glass recognition

PRODUCTIVITY RATES
Glass loss in plants is reduced, and the recovery of marketable glass product is expanded, leading to an increase in plant productivity rates.
UPGRADE
A retrofit kit is available to existing REDWAVE CX users supporting a system upgrade to improved technology at low cost.
GLASS RECOVERY
Establishing a stand-alone downstream stage for the recovery of dark glass pieces from the CSP waste of existing plants.

Unique 3‐way design – modular system – 100% REDWAVE

CAMERA AND LIGHT SOURCE TECHNOLOGY

CAMERA AND LIGHT SOURCE

Developed 100% by REDWAVE
Specially developed for better sorting performance in dark glass
High availability of spare parts and low stocks on site and integration of REDWAVE mate
Own REDWAVE software developed for the best sorting results

MAINTENANCE MADE EASY

EASY TO MAINTAIN

Sophisticated pivoting mechanisms
Lightweight spare parts
Easily exchangeable parts

3‐WAY SORTING

SORTING

Due to same distance to the recognition of both ejects
Same performance for both ejects
No air turbulence influences
No calculation uncertainties
3‐way sorting allows efficient plant layouts with fewer machines and therefore less costs

SENSOR FUSION

ADDITONAL SENSORS FOR YOUR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS

Additional metal sensor for removing metals
Additional NIR sensor for removing remaining plastics >3 mm
Any additional sensors can be upgraded at a later date

MODULES FOR YOUR SUCCESS

ONE SORTER IS MADE OF MODULES WITH 500mm or 750mm

Each module can be set to its own sorting task
Different grain sizes or even different colours can thus be efficiently sorted in one machine
Lower spare parts inventory and lower costs

REDWAVE CXFP

REDUCTION OF PLASTICS IN END PRODUCT

For sorting the smallest plastic particles >3mm
Either used directly in the main stage or at the final sorting stage

Functional principle REDWAVE CX 3-way

Vibratory feeder
Material slide
Camera
Light source
Valves and nozzles at the frontside
Valves and nozzles at the rearside
Chute for eject from front to rear
Chute for eject from rear to front
Chute for passing material

The unique 3-way design enables equally high efficiency for both the first and the second ejection. With one ejection on the front and one on the back, the distance between the material scan and the ejection is the same for both sorts. This concept, in combination with the improved, independently developed camera and lighting technology as well as the associated sorting software, enables an unprecedented high detection rate. The powerful valve and nozzle arrangement allow for a compact sorting system with fewer sorting steps.
