Advanced Material
Sorting for Difficult
Rigid Polymers
MAS-P Pro goes beyond conventional PET purification. Using material recognition and multi-spectral analysis, it accurately separates visually similar rigid flakes such as PP, PE, ABS, PS, PC and PMMA with exceptional precision and minimal loss.




Material Recognition Workflow
- PP
- PE
- ABS
- PS
- PC
- PMMA
Feed
Consistent rigid flake feed with controlled flow and spacing.
Identify
Material recognition and multi-spectral analysis identify material signatures with high accuracy.
Accept / Reject
High-speed ejection ensures clean separation with minimal loss.
Problem / Fit
Use MAS-P Pro when one-dimensional sorting is not enough.
MAS-P Pro is built for complex mixed-polymer streams where material and color targets must be combined to reach the quality your process demands.

Suitable input form
- Rigid flakes and regrind
- Clean, dry, free-flowing feed
- Typical size: 2-20 mm
Typical challenge
PP, PE, PS, ABS, PC and PMMA can look similar after preparation, especially in white, milky or transparent streams.
Why color alone is not enough
A color-correct piece can still be the wrong polymer. MAS-P Pro combines material recognition with multi-spectral analysis.
Out of scope
Not designed for film, pellets, powder, liquids or whole bottles.
Evaluation note
Performance depends on material condition, target defects and representative sample testing.
Best fit materials
- PP
- PE
- PS
- ABS
- PVC
- PET
- PC
- PMMA

Spectral Response
Application Scenarios
Representative material challenges for MAS-P Pro.
These scenarios look visually similar but require stricter material decisions and representative sample validation.

Mixed Polyolefins (PP / PE)
Challenge: PP and PE flakes can share a white or milky appearance while requiring different recovery paths.
Sorting objective: Separate PP from PE after sample-led recipe validation.

Neutral Engineering Plastics (ABS / PS)
Challenge: ABS and PS can overlap visually in neutral-color rigid fragments.
Sorting objective: Evaluate material class and route target polymers with controlled loss.

Transparent Rigid Mix (PC / PMMA)
Challenge: PC, PMMA and other clear plastics are difficult to distinguish by appearance.
Sorting objective: Use material-response references for transparent and smoky rigid fragments.

White / Milky Polymer Feed
Challenge: White and translucent pieces can hide polymer differences after washing and drying.
Sorting objective: Build a screened sample set around accepted, rejected and borderline materials.
Why it matters
Material recognition keeps decisions stable when color alone is not enough.
Visual similarity is only the beginning. MAS-P Pro combines material recognition and multi-spectral analysis to make consistent decisions where color-only sorting struggles.
Anatomía de la máquina

Buyer Questions
Questions to answer before finalizing the configuration.
These questions replace the previous FAQ set and keep capability wording tied to sample validation.
¿Es MAS 3D para botellas enteras?
No. Se enmarca para escamas o piezas plásticas preparadas. Las botellas enteras deben revisarse bajo MAS-B.
¿Puede clasificar PP, PE, ABS, PC y PMMA?
Esas clases pueden evaluarse como materiales objetivo, pero la capacidad final depende del material, color, aditivos, contaminación y configuración seleccionada.
¿Significa todo-en-uno que no se necesitan pruebas?
No. La clasificación combinada de color y material aún requiere pruebas representativas de muestras y revisión de salida.
¿Es MAS 3D lo mismo que MAS-P?
No. MAS-P se enmarca alrededor de la purificación PET. MAS 3D es para decisiones más complejas de color más material en corrientes de escamas preparadas.
