An optical sorter machine is an advanced sensor-based system that automatically identifies and separates different types of plastics based on color, polymer composition, and transparency.
In modern plastic recycling plants, optical sorters ensure high-purity recovery of PET, PE, and PP by removing contaminants, labels, metals, and mixed polymers that compromise material quality.
Through its partnership with Pellenc ST, Arcler integrates advanced optical sorting machines including Mistral+ Connect and Mistral Compact+ into plastic washing and recycling lines, helping industries produce high-quality recyclate for packaging, textiles, and circular economy applications.
