The machine consists of a conveyor belt (1), a vision system (2), an extraction system (3), and a control cabinet (4). The machine by means of the vision system identifies the material to be separated based on a dimensional attribute, color or shape or a combination thereof according to the type of material to be separated. An extraction system that can be pneumatic (blow or suction) or by means of robots and / or manipulators connected to the vision system. The machine satisfactorily solves the problem of the separation of some recyclable materials that are currently done manually as non-ferromagnetic metals, plastics, glass, etc. Likewise, the machine significantly improves the health conditions of the operators used in the process of selecting and separating recyclable materials.
Description
Máquina para la extracción automática y clasificación de materiales reciclables basada en la tecnología de visión artificial.Machine for automatic extraction and classification of recyclable materials based on the technology of artificial vision.
La presente invención se refiere a la separación y clasificación automática por visión artificial de plásticos, vidrio, metales y materiales reciclables en general.The present invention relates to separation and automatic classification by artificial vision of plastics, glass, metals and recyclable materials in general.
Actualmente este proceso se lleva a cabo manualmente por operarios que realizan estas operaciones de separación y selección en unas condiciones higiénico-laborables y de salubridad muy deficientes.Currently this process is carried out manually by operators who perform these operations of separation and selection under conditions hygienic-working and very healthy poor
Por otra parte al automatizar este proceso el rendimiento del mismo mejora ostensiblemente.On the other hand by automating this process the its performance improves significantly.
Hasta la fecha la separación de algunos materiales reciclables se realiza de forma manual con el evidente riesgo para la salud de los operarios.To date the separation of some Recyclable materials are done manually with the obvious risk to the health of the operators.
Por otra parte, algunos sistemas actuales automáticos de separación se basan en las técnicas empleadas desde hace muchos años en la minería, que involucran el uso de agentes tensioactivos, empleo de una cantidad excesiva de agua, etc..., con el consiguiente perjuicio medio ambiental.On the other hand, some current systems Automatic separation are based on the techniques employed since many years ago in mining, which involve the use of agents surfactants, use of an excessive amount of water, etc ..., with the consequent environmental damage.
Es por ello que esta máquina viene a resolver de forma automática y fiable el proceso de separación y clasificación de materiales reciclables, con evidentes mejoras en las condiciones de salubridad del proceso productivo y con una eliminación de la contaminación medio ambiental debido a los procesos de selección basados en las técnicas tradicionales de separación por flotación y diferencias de densidad de los materiales.That is why this machine comes to solve automatic and reliable separation and classification process of recyclable materials, with obvious improvements in health conditions of the production process and with a elimination of environmental pollution due to selection processes based on traditional techniques of flotation separation and density differences of materials.
La máquina consta esencialmente de una cinta transportadora, un sistema de visión, un sistema de extracción y un armario de control donde está ubicada la electrónica y el sistema informático para el procesado de las imágenes.The machine consists essentially of a tape conveyor, a vision system, an extraction system and a control cabinet where the electronics and the system is located computer for image processing.
La máquina por medio del sistema de visión identifica el material a separar basándose en un atributo dimensional, de color o de forma, o bien una combinación de los mismos dependiendo del tipo de material a separar.The machine through the vision system identify the material to be separated based on an attribute dimensional, color or shape, or a combination of same depending on the type of material to be separated.
El sistema de extracción puede ser neumático bien por soplado o por aspiración según la granulometría del material a separar.The extraction system can be pneumatic either by blowing or by aspiration according to the grain size of the material to separate.
Por otra parte el sistema de extracción puede consistir en robots o manipuladores cuyos movimientos se determinan desde el sistema de visión.On the other hand the extraction system can consist of robots or manipulators whose movements are determined from the vision system.
La elección del sistema de extracción dependerá de las características y granulometría de los materiales a separar.The choice of the extraction system will depend of the characteristics and granulometry of the materials to pull apart.
El armario de control dispone de monitor con pantalla táctil donde se registran el número de piezas separadas y se visualizan estadísticas por turnos, el tipo de material que se está separando, etc...The control cabinet has a monitor with touch screen where the number of separate parts are recorded and turn statistics are displayed, the type of material that is is separating, etc ...
La cinta transportadora dispone de motor con variador de frecuencia para ajustar las diferentes velocidades de marcha según el tipo de material a separar.The conveyor belt has a motor with frequency inverter to adjust the different speeds of March according to the type of material to be separated.
El sistema de visión está ubicado en armario estanco y dispone de un sistema de control automático de la temperatura que garantiza un funcionamiento correcto y estable de los sistemas electrónicos.The vision system is located in a closet waterproof and has an automatic control system for the temperature that guarantees a correct and stable operation of Electronic systems
