SKAKO has developed a copper recycling feeding system in cooperation with one of their customers. The system is fully automated and consists of a Lift Tipper and a Vibration Feeder that feeds copper material into two separate melting ovens. On a given signal from the FV-feeder, the Lift Tipper fills recyclable material from a container into the feeder. The melting oven has a load cell and is able to signal to the FV-feeder for more material when it reaches a preset minimum weight. The FV-feeder will then move forward towards the oven on its rails and start the material discharge. The FV-feeder has an integrated weighing system and will stop the filling of material when the required amount has been filled into the oven. It will then return to its original position. The FV-feeder is motorized and can feed multiple ovens as it is placed on a rotating table that can turn 90 degrees.

For the sorting the mixed plastic types, pre-sorting, where SKAKO’s finger screen helps separating the waste bales into smaller fractions, is important Nomi4s has introduced a new development project, where the main objective is to develop and demonstrate a technical concept with automated technologies and methods. The concept will, with minimal human effort, help identify and sort recyclable resources from large fractions of waste. The project can be divided into two main processes: # The first stage is the pre-sorting, where SKAKO’s finger screen helps separating the waste bales into smaller fractions, thus the metal, glass and plastic can be sorted by the vibrating scalper, that transports and separates the fractions under a magnetic belt. # The second stage is sorting the mixed plastic types. SKAKO’s Storage Feeder and Vibration Conveyor distribute the different types of plastic which help the infrared NIR sensor to scan the plastic and send the information to the robotic arms for pick up. The most common plastic types PP, PE and PET. SKAKO supplied * FINGER SCREEN S2U180/0320, * CONVEYORS 2 X CCU140/250 *
