China's First AI Hyperspectral Optical Sorter For Mixed Fabrics Launched!

Dongguan /PRNewswire/ - DataBeyond Technology has officially launched China's first AI hyperspectral optical sorter for mixed fabrics, which integrates advanced artificial intelligence algorithms with hyperspectral recognition technology. This breakthrough successfully addresses the long-standing challenges of mixed fabric sorting, marking a milestone in DataBeyond Technology's efforts to drive the transformation and improvement of the textile recycling industry.

Mixed Fabric Sorting : A Bottleneck in Traditional Technology
Mixed fabric sorting is a persistent problem for the textile recycling industry. Mixed textiles consist of a range of different materials with complex and uneven distribution, making it difficult to efficiently and accurately separate these materials using traditional sorting methods. As a result, a large portion of mixed fabric waste is either incinerated or landfilled, resulting in significant resource waste and environmental degradation. In response to this challenge, DataBeyond Technology has innovatively developed an AI-powered hyperspectral optical mixed fabric sorter that can accurately separate textiles containing multiple material components. This technology provides an excellent solution for efficient sorting and recycling of mixed fabrics.

Technological breakthrough: promoting the development of textile recycling
The AI ​​hyperspectral optical sorter for mixed fabrics revolutionizes the sorting technology of mixed textiles:

  • Precision sorting : The sorter is equipped with hyperspectral sensors that detect 256 spectral bands, which enables comprehensive recognition of textile waste. It can accurately sort textiles containing 30-80% polyester, nylon, spandex and cotton, and achieve an accuracy rate of 99%. This provides high-quality raw materials for downstream chemical recycling processes.
  • Adaptability : In response to constantly changing market conditions, the sorter easily adapts to meet customer needs. It can flexibly switch between sorting targets, facilitating effective matching with downstream processing requirements, which greatly increases the resource value of mixed fabric waste.

A New Chapter in Mixed Fabric Sorting
After seven years of development, DataBeyond Technology has remained true to its original mission and made continuous progress. The commercialization of the AI ​​hyperspectral sorter for mixed fabrics marks a historic milestone in textile waste recycling. This cutting-edge technology will enable the recycling industry to better valorize mixed textile waste, which will open up new revenue opportunities for the textile recycling sector and accelerate the advent of a new era of intelligent recycling in the industry!
