Transforming Recycling with Innovative Automation
At Lumis Automation, we pride ourselves on delivering cutting-edge industrial automation solutions that blend mechanical, electrical, and software engineering. Our latest project, the Aerosol Can Recycling system, is a testament to our commitment to innovation and sustainability. This project underscores our dedication to addressing the growing demand for efficient recycling solutions, particularly in regions like California where environmental initiatives are paramount.
About the Project
The Aerosol Can Recycling system is a comprehensive solution designed to streamline the recycling process for aerosol cans. Here’s an overview of how this state-of-the-art system operates:
Crushing Mechanism:
- The system features a large vertical pneumatic mechanism that safely crushes aerosol cans within a robust chamber.
- This process ensures the cans are compressed efficiently, reducing their volume and preparing them for the next stage of recycling.
Reject Mechanics:
- Crushed cans are directed into a designated bin using advanced reject mechanics.
- This ensures seamless separation and collection of the crushed cans.
Feeding Options:
- Depending on the desired processing rate, the system offers versatile feeding options, including robotic feeders or flip stations.
- This flexibility allows for customized setups that meet specific operational requirements.
Conveyor Integration:
- Integrated conveyors facilitate the movement and singulation of cans, ensuring a steady and controlled flow through the system.
- This integration enhances efficiency and throughput.
Fluid and Gas Management:
- During the crushing process, fluids and gases are extracted through a vacuum system.
- The collected fluids are stored in a dedicated tank, while the gases pass through a carbon filter, ensuring safe and environmentally friendly disposal.
Control System and Software:
- Our team provides a fully customizable control system and software to manage the entire recycling process.
- This allows clients to tailor the system to their specific needs and ensures optimal performance and efficiency.
Benefits of the Aerosol Can Recycling System
Our Aerosol Can Recycling system offers numerous advantages, making it an invaluable addition to any recycling operation:
Enhanced Efficiency:
- Automation significantly increases the throughput of recycling processes, enabling the handling of larger volumes of aerosol cans.
