Next-Generation Optical
Fiber Sorting Technology
Based on the popular CIRRUS
®
sensor platform, FiberMax™ provides
operation flexibility and top of the
line sensing capabilities.
MaxSelect™
utilizes patented
sequential scanning technology
for the highest-definition image
possible. High number of NIR and
color wavelengths make it possible to
change sort setups by only software
programming, no hardware changes
required.
ClearLight™
technology provides
the best signal-to-noise ratio of
any optical sorter in the recycling
industry. MSS doesn’t use gratings
or light beam splitters, so detectors
receive the maximum amount of
reflected light possible, allowing for
the most accurate detection of highly
transparent items such as lightweight
single-serve PET bottles.
Your Shield Against the
National Sword
The ultimate optical fiber sorting
solution for MRFs, FiberMax™
reduces head-count on the Fiber QC
line while greatly improving fiber
purity for best marketability, reducing
exposure to market risks such as
“Green Fence” or “National Sword.”
The Material Handling
Experts
One FiberMax™ does the job of
20 manual QC sorters, averaging
600‑800 picks per minute.
Maximizing material recovery relies
on proper material handling. MSS
uses high-velocity belt speeds
of 1,000 feet/minute (5 meters
per second). This enables proper
material distribution that results in
minimal collateral damage, giving
FiberMax™ a competitive advantage
over other optical sorters.

FiberMax™ Sort Efficiency
In an independent 2017 study,
FiberMax™ achieved a 96.6% sorting
efficiency on flexible plastics
packaging (FPP) such as film,
bags, pouches, etc. from mixed
paper in a commercial single-
stream MRF. Over 23,000 pieces of
FPP were artificially added to the
input material in order to create
a “spiked” sample that generated
more statistically relevant data.
