Tomra has been helping the aluminium industry reduce its environmental footprint for many years through automated sensor-based sorting solutions. The sorting specialist’s field-proven X-Tract machines, based on x-ray transmission technology, help scrap recyclers and smelters achieve high purity of the materials used. X-Tract has harnessed the power of dual energy x-ray transmission (XRT) with high resolution and high sensitivity sensors for the aluminium market since 2007. Today, more than 30m tonnes of aluminium scrap is recycled globally every year. The European Aluminium association projects a 40 increase in demand for aluminium in Europe by 2050, and the potential to meet half of this demand with recycled, post-consumer aluminium.
