Bollegraaf develops fully automated waste sorting robot

Fully automated quality control for waste streams offers material benefits for waste processors and recycling companies. RoBB will pay OFF in a number of ways. First, there are the savings on the wage costs. The robot also delivers a very high purity and separation quality in the waste stream, which means higher returns per kilo of processed waste for waste processors and recycling companies.

It is also easily possible to upscale the robot to 24/7 operation.

Economic considerations are playing an increasingly important role in the recycling industry all over the world. Rising demand for recycled products is resulting in waste being regarded more and more as a valuable source of raw materials. Waste processors and recycling companies therefore have much to gain by separating their waste streams as purely as possible, which will result in a

significant rise in proceeds at minimum costs per ton.

Bollegraaf Recycling Solutions will be unveiling its innovative sorting robot at the Pollutec expo. This international trade expo for environmental technology is being held from 27 to 30 November in Lyon.

Bollegraaf is regarded worldwide as an authority in the area of state-of-the-art recycling systems. The company has been operating in the recycling industry for over 50 years. The company has completed more than 600 recycling systems globally, with a total of 5,000 individual Bollegraaf recycling machines and components.
