GIMAX: Next-Generation Precision Sorting for Plastic Recycling
The GIMAX sorting system represents a leap forward in plastic flake sorting technology, offering unmatched precision, versatility, and operational efficiency for recycling operations worldwide.
Highlights
Sorting Version 4.0
GIMAX is engineered for color and material sorting of plastic flakes, accommodating a wide range of configurations to suit diverse processing needs.
All-in-One Separator
At its core, GIMAX integrates:
-
NIR (Near-Infrared) technology
-
An S-class high-precision multi-spectral infrared camera
-
A maintenance-free light source cooling scheme
-
A long-life infrared light source
This combination enables reliable sorting for various materials, with the option to customize special cameras for unique material requirements.
High and Stable Throughput
Designed for uninterrupted productivity, GIMAX features:
-
A wide chute
-
Multi-stage feeding
-
Anti-blocking material design
-
Long-term unmanned operation capabilities
These features ensure consistent high throughput, even in demanding industrial environments.
Energy Efficiency and Versatility
GIMAX supports multiple sorting modes—normal, reverse, single, re-sorting, and up to five-stage sorting—allowing it to adapt to specific production workflows while reducing energy consumption.
Unmatched Accuracy
With high-speed sensors, advanced processing chips, and a “missile guidance” targeting system, GIMAX achieves sorting accuracy rates above 99%.
GIMAX Material Type Optical Sorting Applications
- High-purity purification of PP materials, eliminating non-PP materials
- High-purity purification of PE materials (white, PVC, and bottle cap materials), eliminating non-PE materials
- High-purity separation of PP/PE composites
- High-purity purification of individual salt base materials and salt bleaching materials of various concentrations (PC, PET-G, PC/alloy, PMMA, PVC, POM, PA)
- Separation and purification of ABS/PS materials from disassembled home appliance scraps
- High-purity purification of alloy materials
- Purification of flame-retardant and non-flame-retardant materials

Why GIMAX Polymer Sorter Stands Out
-
Multi-material capability for diverse recycling streams
-
Customizable optical systems for specific material types
-
High automation for reduced labor dependency
-
Energy-conscious design for lower operational costs
-
Industrial-grade durability for long-term reliability
GIMAX is more than just a sorting machine—it’s a precision-engineered recycling partner designed to maximize yield, purity, and profitability in the modern circular economy.
