The system transports pieces on a conveyor belt, identifies and sorts them depending on the type of material (plastic /aluminum). The belt is driven by a DC motor controlled by relay. Aluminum pieces are identified by an inductive sensor above the conveyor belt, and then pushed into the first warehouse by a pneumatic cylinder. Plastic pieces are not sensed by the sensor and therefore continue their way towards the second warehouse.
