About Us - Equipment

Included in NRT's proprietary on-line sensing and sorting equipment are

  • The VinylCycle x-ray based family of automated sorters that separate polyvinyl chloride (PVC) from post-consumer mixed plastics streams 24/7 with high precision and unparalleled reliability.
  • The MultiSort ES family of sorters which use robust machine vision technology to identify and separate plastic products by color/shape and polymer type at high speed and high accuracy.
  • The MultiSort IR family of sorters which apply advanced reflection and transmission infrared spectroscopic sensing technologies to identify and separate plastic products by polymer type including bottles and pieces.
  • The MultiSort IR-ES Combo family of sorters that integrate ES color/shape sorting and IR polymer sorting into one compact sorting enclosure presenting three product output streams, thereby saving the client capital cost and valuable processing floor area.
  • The FlakeSort system which uses specialized infrared sensing to identify and remove polymer contaminants from PET plastic flake at high processing rates.
  • The FlakeAnalyzer family of automated analytical process control systems that provide either laboratory batch analyses or continuous on-line system analyses of plastic flakes.
  • The SpydIR system can identify many different polymers, and remove selected ones from a process stream of clear or opaque objects.

The majority of the world's recycled PET plastics are processed through sorting machines designed, manufactured, marketed, and serviced by NRT.  PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is the material of choice worldwide for packaging of beverages and water in plastic bottles.  These and many other types of NRT inspection equipment are in operation at facilities in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe, Japan, and Australia.
