Key Features of the ENERPAT AI Colour Sorting Machine
Equipped with high-resolution RGB cameras and AI intelligent recognition, discover how our advanced optical sorting system directly tackles your operational bottlenecks.
High-Resolution RGB Camera Recognition
The machine uses high-resolution RGB cameras to capture detailed visual information from individual metal pieces.
By identifying differences in color, shape, size and surface appearance, the optical sorting system provides the visual data required for separating different non-ferrous metal fractions.
For copper recycling applications, this technology provides a practical approach to distinguishing red copper and yellow brass based on their visible characteristics.
AI-Based Intelligent Metal Identification
Unlike basic color detection systems, the ENERPAT AI Optical Sorter combines visual recognition with intelligent classification.
The recognition system analyzes the captured material characteristics and identifies target metal categories according to the configured sorting requirements.
This supports flexible sorting applications involving copper, brass, aluminum, zinc and other non-ferrous materials.
Enhanced LED Illumination System
Stable lighting is important for optical metal sorting.
The integrated high-intensity LED illumination system provides consistent lighting conditions for camera detection, helping capture material surface characteristics and support reliable visual identification.
High-Speed Air Ejection System
After identifying the target materials, the system uses high-speed compressed air to separate selected metal pieces from the main material stream.
The high-speed air ejection system supports continuous automated sorting and reduces the need for workers to manually pick individual metal pieces.
Flexible Integration into Existing Recycling Lines
The ES-AIOS-M Series is designed as an additional sorting stage in non-ferrous metal recycling operations.
It can be integrated with existing shredding, crushing, screening and metal separation equipment according to the incoming material and required sorting process.
Both M600 and M1200 configurations are available to accommodate different conveyor widths and production requirements.
Applicable Materials and Recycling Applications
One Optical Sorting Machine for Multiple Non-Ferrous Metal Fractions
The ENERPAT AI Colour Sorting Machine is designed for further separation of pre-processed mixed non-ferrous metal scrap.
Copper and Brass Separation
One of its important applications is separating red copper and yellow brass from mixed non-ferrous metal streams.
By recognizing differences in material appearance, the machine can help recyclers produce separate copper and brass fractions, improving the commercial value of recovered materials.
Aluminum and Copper Sorting
For mixed metal streams containing aluminum and copper, the optical sorting system can identify target fractions according to their visual characteristics and configured sorting requirements.
Zinc and Other Non-Ferrous Metals
The machine can also be configured for additional non-ferrous sorting applications, depending on material composition and sample testing results.

How to Choose Between M600 and M1200?
ENERPAT can help evaluate the appropriate model based on material samples, expected throughput, particle size and existing production line configuration.
ES-AIOS-M600 – 600 mm Belt Width
A compact configuration for recycling facilities with narrower material streams or smaller processing lines.
ES-AIOS-M1200 – 1,200 mm Belt Width
A wider configuration with more air nozzles, suitable for larger material streams and recycling operations requiring a wider sorting belt.

Build a More Efficient Non-Ferrous Metal Sorting Process
Integrate AI Optical Sorting into Your Existing Recycling Line
The AI Colour Sorting Machine is particularly useful as a secondary sorting stage after the initial recovery of non-ferrous metals.
A typical process may include:
Primary Size Reduction
Shredders or crushing equipment reduce the size of incoming scrap materials.
Initial Metal Separation
Magnetic and eddy current separation equipment remove ferrous and recoverable non-ferrous metal fractions.
Material Screening
Screening equipment helps control particle size and prepare materials for optical sorting.
AI Optical Sorting
The ENERPAT AI Colour Sorting Machine identifies and separates selected metal fractions, such as copper and brass.
Final Material Collection
Different metal products are collected separately for further processing or sale.
FAQ
Q1. Can the ENERPAT Colour Sorting Machine separate copper and brass?
Yes. The ES-AIOS-M Series can be configured for copper and brass sorting applications. Its RGB cameras capture visual differences between materials, while AI recognition identifies the target fractions and high-speed air nozzles perform the separation. Actual results depend on the condition and composition of the incoming materials. Sample testing is recommended.
Q2. Does the machine use X-ray or XRF technology?
Q3. Can ENERPAT test our copper and brass samples before purchase?
Q4. Can this colour sorting machine be integrated into an existing metal recycling line?
Q5. What determines the sorting accuracy and processing capacity?
Q6. Does ENERPAT provide installation and after-sales support?
