BATTERAY

LINEV Group  - the world leader in innovative X-ray screening technology - has developed X-ray detection solution for batteries' collectors and recyclers. The LINEV Group X-ray battery sorter utilizes unique Artificial intelligence software to reduce the human factor in batteries sorting process.

Sorting groups:

• Alkaline
• Zn-Carbon
• Li-ion
• Li-primary
• Nickel – Cadmium (NiCd)
• Nickel – Metal hydride (NiMH)

Key features:

• Possibility to sort out batteries without marking label as well as badly damaged, corroded and counterfeit batteries
• Throughput performance of 350 kg/hour which significantly exceed 25kg/hour of manual sorting rate
• Sorting purity up to 99,5%
• Wide sorting map with option available for customer to add previously unrecognized batteries to the database
• Full X-ray operator protection

Area of application

• Recycling

BATTERAY utilizes state-of-the-art technology to identify batteries and sort them by types for the following recycling.

• Non-destructive testing

Possibility of capturing high-quality X-Ray images of batteries flow on conveyor could be efficiently used by portable batteries manufacturers for quality control
