High-Resolution Color and
Shape Sorting System
Recent upgrades to both hardware
and software of the L-VIS® high-
resolution camera sorting system
further improve the accuracy of
color and shape separation of small
particles.
The most successful applications
include extracting high-value
commodities from electronic
waste, such as circuit boards and
copper wires, or sorting shredded or
granulated plastics by color.
ColorMask™
ColorMask™ is MSS’s proprietary
illuminated reference technology.
The most recent design update
features improved sorting accuracy
for materials with difficult colors and
weak contrast, such as dark green
circuit boards and black insulated
wires.
The L-VIS
®
analyzes materials
in flight over the ColorMask™
illuminated reference, which is
adjustable in color and light intensity,
for maximum contrast and accuracy.
WireHawk™
The patented WireHawk™ software
algorithm is specifically designed
for electronic and metal scrap
applications.
WireHawk™ provides customers with
increased recovery rates for even
the thinnest wires, resulting in higher
returns for high-value commodities.
The combination of both WireHawk™
and ColorMask™ technologies open
the L-VIS
®
platform up to many other
applications.
