What is GAINnext™?
GAINnext™ is a deep learning-based add-on for TOMRA’s industry-leading AUTOSORT™ units. Thanks to its integrated deep learning software, it identifies hard-to-classify objects, reducing the need for manual sorting.
By leveraging artificial intelligence, GAINnext™ can instantly identify and remove over 92% of opaque objects from PET streams. This ensures a higher purity of transparent and light blue PET, meeting the stringent requirements for food-grade recycling.
Sorting based on visual information
Traditional sorting systems struggle to remove hard-to-detect objects like opaque bottles, polyester fabrics, and multilayered foils, leading to contamination in the recycling process.
GAINnext™ efficiently remove opaque white bottles, polyester textiles, and plastic foil to significantly improving PET purification levels. The system also enhances hit rates for hard-to-eject and multilayered foils, allowing recyclers to recover more valuable materials and reduce waste.
Advantages of GAINnext™
- Increase sorting efficiency and accuracy
- Enhance the purity of food-grade PET fractions
- Unlock new revenue streams from opaque PET bottles
- Contribute to a more sustainable and circular economy
