Two models are included in the first update, which is being gradually extended to the entire product range. Numerous new features are being added for even more durable and convenient operation. In the future, proven AI-based sorting programs will continue to achieve the best quality on the market when processing secondary raw materials.

The EVO 6.0 generation significantly improves how the sorting system is handled. Better access to the system components speeds up maintenance work. For example, the pneumatic unit has been re-arranged and, rather than being located under the sorting system, it is now at the front end, making it easily accessible.

Users also stand to gain from a permanently integrated railing with ladders, allowing the 3D and colour sensors to be accessed quickly and safely without requiring climbing gear. External footrests are no longer needed for work in the discharge area. An integrated rolling platform permits quick and safe access to the nozzle bar and conveyor belt.

Swivel-mounted doors rather than removable hoods deliver further improvements to day-to-day handling and, alongside a number of further optimisations, round off the update.

Through the process of switching to the EVO 6.0 generation, Steinert is creating a common architecture for its sensor sorters. The platforms of future sorting systems will be harmonised, resulting in handling synergies and enabling even more efficient use of Steinert technologies for the long term.

The process will start with the Steinert KSS | CLI EVO 6.0 with colour, inductive and 3D detection as well as the Steinert KSS | XT CLI EVO 6.0 with additional X-ray transmission (XRT) technology. These models are available right now with the new features for no additional cost. They will soon be followed by the XRT variant with a special configuration for mining and the Steinert KSS with X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology.
