How many picks/min does your robot do ?
As many as needed : 30, 60, 3000
Will put the number of robots necessary to achieve the application.
Can your robot beat my best human sorter ?
Absolutely, because it doesn’t eat, break or sleep. Moreover, it can see material composition invisible to the human eye.
How fast can your robot learn to identify new objects ?
If you come across a new object you can scan few dozen examples that will get uploaded to the Waste Robotics Cloud Service and few days later you will be able to sort this object with precision.
Is your robot more expensive than the others ?
Never. If you want an AI-only cheap robot with a suction cup we can make it at a competitive price.
If you want a quality sorting multi-sensor robot, it will be more expensive, and it will do more.
Waste Robotics can always be upgraded to offer more functionality.
Is having several slower robots better than having one (1) fast robot ?
Absolutely! Several robots working in series augments the robot’s workspace and material contact time so there is more opportunities to make the picks. Two (2) 30 picks/min robots will achieve more picks than one (1) 60 picks/min robot.
Can your robot recognise objects that are touching or overlapping ?
Yes, our multi-sensor robots can clearly recognise moderately overlapping objects.
Can your robot use different type of grippers for different sorting applications ?
Waste Robotics designs and fabricates specialized robotic toolings for various waste sorting applications.
Can an army of little robots beat an optical sorter ?
Absolutely, it will deliver better quality sorting and sort several fractions in a single pass.
Can you adapt your robot to fit my application ?
That’s one of Waste Robotics key differentiators. We deliver specifically adapted robotic sorting applications.
Can you offer local service ?
Throughout its Licensed Integrator PartnerShip (LIPS) program Waste Robotics is building a network of specialised robotic integrators that can locally build, install and service Waste Robotics systems.
Do I have to pay a monthly license fee to use the robot I bought ?
No, but we offer various hardware/software service packages to maintain equipment and software up-to-date.
What kind of waste can you handle?
Any type of waste. We will design the right solution to your needs. Biowaste, construction demolition, recyclable, mining, scrap metal, etc.
How does SAAS work?
SAAS is different from leasing. We provide a full service the machine will full maintenance. SAAS is a full service (leasing is a financial tool). We work with a 4 years contract.
How often the robot breaks?
The mean time between failure is 100 000 hours.
Do you provide a local service?
We are affiliate with Fanuc. They have a worldwide network and we can send a specialist to repair the robot in a few hours.
Is the robot high maintenance?
Robot need low maintenance. A few hours maintenance (2-3 hours) is required every three months.
