Sorting
Optical sorting is crucial in plastic processing because it improves the efficiency and quality of recycling. Advanced technologies like optical sensors allow for the quick and accurate separation of different plastics, resulting in pure recycled material. Efficient sorting helps recycling companies provide high-quality materials, contributing to a more sustainable and circular economy.

Benefits of the Meyer sorting machines
MEYER offers advanced optical sorting solutions that significantly enhance the efficiency and quality of plastic recycling. Our sorting machines use cutting-edge technologies like precise ejectors, optical sensors, and AI-driven material recognition. These technologies quickly and accurately identify and separate plastics. This results in purer recycled materials, reduces contamination, and increases the value of recycled plastics. Additionally, the machines are easy to integrate into existing production lines, allowing recycling companies to seamlessly optimize their processes. Suitable materials for these machines include PET, PE, PP, and PVC. Our focus on customer-oriented, customized solutions ensures we can provide a solution for every material.
Our machine range
Colour sorting machine
MEYER's chute color sorting machines are advanced optical sorters designed to separate plastics (mainly flakes) and other materials by color. They use high-quality cameras and sensor systems to quickly and accurately identify materials based on color, ensuring efficient removal of unwanted contaminants. This results in higher purity of recycled material and improved quality of the final product. With their smart design, these machines are easy to integrate into existing production lines, offering a cost-effective solution for companies looking to sort plastics by color for recycling.
Polymer type sorting machines,
MEYER's chute polymer sorting machines are specially designed to separate plastics (mainly flakes) by polymer type. These advanced machines use optical sensors and near-infrared (NIR) technology to accurately detect and sort different polymers. This allows for efficient sorting of various plastics, such as PET, PE, PP, and PVC.
Other products
The sorting machines mentioned above are primarily designed for sorting flakes. MEYER equipment can also separate complete objects, like PET bottles, before they are reduced in size. After the extrusion process, granules can be sorted by color and polymer type. In addition to chute sorting machines, MEYER also offers belt sorting machines.
