MACHINE FOR AUTOMATIC EXTRACTION AND CLASSIFICATION OF RECYCLABLE MATERIALS BASED ON ARTIFICIAL VISION TECHNOLOGY.

摘要

Machine for automatic extraction and classification of recyclable materials based on artificial vision technology. The machine consists of a conveyor belt (1), a vision system (2), an extraction system (3), and a control cabinet (4). The machine by means of the vision system identifies the material to be separated based on a dimensional attribute, color or shape or a combination thereof according to the type of material to be separated. An extraction system that can be pneumatic (blow or suction) or by means of robots and / or manipulators connected to the vision system. The machine satisfactorily solves the problem of the separation of some recyclable materials that are currently done manually as non-ferromagnetic metals, plastics, glass, etc. Likewise, the machine significantly improves the health conditions of the operators used in the process of selecting and separating recyclable materials.
