Robots Aid Michigan MRF

摘要

Emmet County, Michigan, is in the process of making $2.4 million in upgrades at its material recovery facility (MRF), including extending presort lines, installing a glass breaker screen to break and separate glass and adding three artificial intelligence (AT) robots provided by Colorado-based Amp Robotics. The upgrades will help replace old equipment at the MRF, which the county purchased 10 years ago from Outagamie County,Wisconsin, to improve efficiencies and reduce labor costs, said Andi Shepherd, Recycling Director for Emmet County Recycling.
