Detect Contaminants At High Line Speeds: RAYCON Bulk X-ray Sorting

The RAYCON Bulk X-ray product sorting system detects contaminants at high line speeds that due to their density, chemical composition, or mechanical dimensions absorb X-radiation to greater degree than the surrounding bulk product.

The RAYCON BULK product sorting system detects all metals. Iron, stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals. X-ray technology furthermore is especially suited for such applications where optical sorting systems reach their limits, for example because contaminants have the same colour as the good material. All the detected contaminations are deflected from their trajectory and are separated through the reject outlet. Separation is performed by up to 20 individual flaps, or with up to 80 air-blast nozzles to keep the loss of good material at an absolute minimum.
