TRIALU®
A NEW SORTING SYSTEM
The TRIALU® is the result of five years'
experience and research in household
packaging sorting centres. ANDRIN
and LEAS have designed a system for
selective detection and ejection of aluminium-
based packagings to overcome
the lack of selectivity of
eddy-current separators.
The LEASar®, which are specially
developed, patented sensors, precisely
distinguish all aluminium items, whatever
their shape:
- rigid (drinks cans, food cans, aerosols,
punnets),
- bricks,
- foil.
FIELD OF APPLICATION
The TRIALU® is intended for automation
of recovery of aluminiums in household
packaging sorting centres and the recycling
industries for this packaging.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The TRIALU® consists of:
- a flat-belt conveyor with special
strips for stabilization of the products,
- a battery of LEASar® detectors
assembled in anti-vibration resin and
mounted in a movable slide,
- high-speed calculators implanted in
each of the sensors, containing the
details of the object to be extracted,
its nature, its speed and the technical
and mechanical details of ejection
(distance, power, kinematics of fall),
- an adjustable pneumatic ejection
system based on ultra-high-speed
solenoid valves mounted on a sealed
manifold. The ejection nozzles, optimally
designed for the precision, the
frequency and the speed of the air jet,
are in high-strength light metal. A
casing protects them from impact
and pollution.
- an anti-rebound ejection chute with
an adjustable separator flag,
- a control cabinet including electrical
controls, the ultrafiltration and the
pneumatic adjustment.
SPECIFICATIONS
Performance varies depending on a
number of parameters:
- characteristics of the flow,
- nature of the packaging to be
ejected,
- organization of the sorting plant,
- position of the TRIALU®..
Seven types of TRIALU®are available
depending on the width of the
conveyor:
400, 600, 800, 1000, 1200, 1400, 1600mm.
METHOD OF INSTALLATION
The TRIALU® is installed downstream
of the sorting cabin for household packaging,
preferably on a line dedicated
to lightweight hollow bodies.
A single-layer flow and stable products
are two important criteria.
They are ideally suited to sorting
centres servicing at least 100000 inhabitants.
We suggest 3 installation layouts :
The LEASar® method can also be installed
on semi-automatic sorting
tables. A luminous marker indicates to
the operator the packaging selected.
