MAS-CCOLOR SORTING SERIES
Precision Flake
Color Sortingfor PET and Rigid Plastics
Advanced optical detection and high-speed ejection deliver exceptional color separation for PET and rigid plastic flakes. Purify clear, light-blue, green, and mixed-color streams with outstanding accuracy and stable performance.

01
Feed
Even flake delivery ensures consistent sorting.
02
Detect
Optical detection identifies color and material.
03
Accept / Reject
High-speed ejection delivers clean accepts and accurate rejects.
Why MAS-C
A color sorter built to make recovered plastic worth more.
The Maximum Sorting (MAS) color platform is engineered for flake and rigid-fragment streams where visible color and appearance decide product value.
Advanced color sorting
Precise separation driven by subtle color and shade variation across flakes and rigid fragments.
Cost-effective
Low maintenance keeps the total operating cost down across the machine's working life.
Real-time performance insight
On-board data analytics support process optimization and faster line decisions.
Streamlined operation
A clear, user-friendly interface shortens operator training time.
Energy savings
An energy-efficient design lowers power consumption per tonne sorted.
Compact design
A space-efficient footprint integrates into existing recycling lines.
Main applications
Two color-sorting jobs, one platform.
MAS-C is positioned by the visible sorting target rather than a vague plastic category, so the recipe stays concrete.
Application 01
General color sorting
Sort single- and double-sided colored plastic flakes, detect and remove opaque and black flakes from multicolored material, and pull black material out of mixtures such as PC alloy and PC / PP / PS / ABS.
Opaque piecesBlack flakesOff-color flakesPC / PS / ABS mixes
Application 02
Color sorting in PP / PE
Separate red and yellow, blue and green, black, multicolored, transparent and white flakes from PP and PE material to recover clean, single-color fractions.

Corriente de color de escamas
Escamas de color mezclado, rango de color aceptado y rechazos fuera de color.
El MAS-C se enmarca alrededor de la clasificación por color visible y apariencia para escamas preparadas o fragmentos rígidos, no para botellas enteras.
Los límites de color dependen del contraste visible, el tamaño de escama, la humedad, la iluminación, la presentación y la receta seleccionada.
Raw materials
Color classes MAS-C is built to recover.
Switch between material families and click any class to see exactly what enters the machine and what comes out — feed, accepted product, recovered color fractions and reject classes.
Typical color fractions recovered from prepared PET flake streams.
Mixed feed
Clear PET dominates the incoming stream, mixed with blue, green, amber, pink and slightly yellowed pieces. This is the raw flake curtain MAS-C reads before any decision is made.
Accepted and reject classes are always confirmed on your representative samples before a configuration is quoted.
The platform
A dedicated color-sorting platform, not a generic line.
Stable feeding and presentation, controlled visible-light imaging and precisely timed ejection are tuned around prepared flakes so color decisions stay repeatable from the first pass.

Cómo funciona
De muestra de color a tiempo de rechazo.
MAS-C debe explicarse como inspección visible controlada y eyección guiada por receta para escamas preparadas.
- 01Customer-prepared
Feed & stabilize
Prepared flakes are metered by a vibratory feeder and spread into a thin, even curtain so every piece is presented to the cameras the same way. Stable presentation is what makes the color decision repeatable from the first pass.
- 02Controlled lighting
Illuminate & image
Calibrated full-spectrum LED lighting floods the inspection zone while high-resolution cameras capture each flake's color, brightness and transparency — read from both sides so a flake cannot hide its off-color face.
- 03Live recipe
Recognize against the recipe
The processor compares every flake to the accepted color range and the named reject classes from your sample test — clear versus off-color, opaque, black or aged — and makes an accept/reject call in real time.
- 04Air ejection
Time & eject
A fast valve bank fires a precise air pulse the instant an off-spec flake reaches the ejection line, knocking it into the reject channel while accepted flakes fall straight through. Timing is tuned to flake size and chute speed.
- 05Quality check
Verify & re-sort
Accepted and reject streams are checked against your quality target. Tighter targets can run a second pass to lift purity, or route the reject stream to recover a saleable color fraction instead of losing it.
Technical details

Buyer questions
What buyers ask before specifying a MAS-C.
Straight answers on purity, throughput, what MAS-C can and cannot separate, and how a sample test turns into a quoted configuration.
¿Es MAS-C para botellas enteras?
No. MAS-C se enmarca para escamas o piezas plásticas preparadas. Las botellas enteras deben revisarse bajo MAS-B.
¿Puede MAS-C separar PET de PVC?
No como afirmación de clasificadora por color. La separación de material PET/PVC debe revisarse bajo MAS-P o MAS 3D donde la configuración seleccionada lo soporte.
¿Puede una receta de color funcionar para cada corriente de escamas?
No. Diferentes polímeros, colores, tamaños de partícula, suciedad y niveles de humedad necesitan revisión de receta.
¿Se publican aquí el rendimiento y la pureza?
No. Esos valores requieren pruebas representativas de muestras y configuración confirmada.
Real sample testing
Use your own flake color targets before finalizing the sorting recipe.
A MAS-C project should start from real feed, accepted color fractions, off-color pieces and borderline material from the line.
