THISTED, DENMARK — Cimbria has introduced BRAIN, a highly advanced software control system in its top range optical sorters powered by artificial intelligence (AI), which can easily create the most complex recipes for the best optical sorting, increasing efficiency up to 18%.  

AI now allows customers to experience easy and simple handling of optical sorters from Cimbria while operating at a highly advanced level. The combination of human operation and machine learning increases the precision sorting of raw materials for impressive results. 

“With BRAIN we have revolutionized the way our top range optical sorter operates,” said Michela Pelliconi, head of sales for optical sorting at Cimbria. “Our many years of experience and in-depth knowledge of what makes the best possible sorting are key in creating the most complex recipes for optical sorting. This simplifies the manual operation of the machine because the right settings have already been adjusted for an optimized outcome through artificial intelligence.

“A complex algorithm of the BRAIN software enables the SEA.IQ PLUS optical sorter to identify elements even more precisely and distinguish color, shape, size, and defects quickly and easily, saving precious time and manual workload.”

Technical staff overseeing optical sorters benefit from BRAIN, which simplifies machine use by providing AI generated recipes. This reduces reliance on individual interpretation, leading to faster and simpler operations. This enhanced application allows operators to manage multiple sites and machines, increasing overall efficiency by approximately 18%.
