Therefore, Machinex is proud to unveil the new generation MACH Hyspec®, prior to one of the most prestigious national trade shows in the USA, the Waste Expo, in Las Vegas, May 7-9. Machinex Experts will be at booth 2800 to present the new features of the machine to the visitors.
Our Research & Development department has been working closely with our Design Engineers during the past year in response to detailed communication, with our customers to meet their needs. The revised access features within the new design result in a significant 50% saving of the cleaning and maintenance time required, with the added benefit of improving the ergonomic operation and the general safety for the staff. With the overall increase in the use of optical sorting within new and existing facilities, these features will result in significant time savings per shift.
“At Machinex, as Sorting Technology Experts, we strive to provide innovative equipment design and performance. As such, we are constantly focused on the requests and requirements from the industry with safety, maintenance, and operational availability as our core focus. We recently surveyed several existing customers, many of the comments/requests have been featured within the new improved design and operation of our MACH Hyspec® Optical Sorter. The new ergonomic design provides increased ease of access for maintenance and servicing ʺ, says Jonathan Ménard, Executive VP Sales and Strategic Positioning at Machinex. “We also significantly refreshed the esthetics of the unit by harmonizing its design with the newly released SamurAI robotʺ, Ménard added.
The new design features include a built-in platform allowing a standing working position (81’’ height x 23’’ width) which is the biggest in the industry, incorporating a full-size access door into the ejection hood. An internal guard rail system ensures the security of the worker when inside the machine and the optional secondary splitter will be positioned by a rail when the platform moves into place. Both the lighting system and the ejection nozzles bar can move into an ideal position to facilitate cleaning and maintenance. As for the outside of the machine, an access ladder has been added to maintain the components accessible from the speed belt conveyor, also installed is a mechanism to easily retract the air tunnel.
For a better understanding, a video that demonstrates all the new features of the optical sorter can be viewed below.
