Waste sorting robots – SamurAI™
EVOLUTION IN SORTING
SamurAI™
Machinex presents SamurAI™, its self-aware sorting robot that employs superior artificial intelligence technology to identify materials for an accurate, positive product recovery or a precise quality control function. Featuring a unique 4 articulation robot, the SamurAI™ is a perfect solution to reduce the dependence on manual sorting within your recovery facility.
The sorting applications of SamurAI™ are numerous and evolve rapidly, however it is designed to positively extract recyclable commodities from a specific stream of material (ex: plastics from a reject line). As well as negatively sort a dedicated stream from all its contamination (ex: PET quality control after an optical unit).
Benefits Vs Human Sorter
- Reduced labor, managing costs & HR challenges
- Up to 70 picks/minute, nearly double the average pick rate (30-40 picks/minute) of a human sorter
- Up to 95% efficiency of targeted product recognition
- Ongoing evolution & optimization of the AI material recognition
- Increased sorting availability, productivity & performance
Artificial intelligence
The SamurAI™ is powered by an artificial intelligence which:
Identifies distinguishing features in the same way as the human eye
- Recognizes material in dirty, commingled and constantly changing conditions including the introduction of new packaging & designs
- Continually improves and learns from operating experience to assure maximum recognition efficiency
- Generates essential data from the material stream composition & evolution perceived
- Operates according to a pre-determined order of task hierarchy to maximize financial return
