Abstract

Nowadays, the technology that has been into the industry revolves around the use of sensors and motors to segregate the waste that is put into the machine/bins. Machine automatically senses the type of waste being put into it and it segregates and pushes down the waste into the respective bin, but these machines have been built on an industrial scale which uses massive conveyer belts and more advanced technology to sense the type of the waste, and these machines are quick but very expensive. The automation in these machines is of utmost importance, and different controls are required for temperature management, operation, and other specific variable control. The present work is the effort of making a scalable model of stone and gas segregator machine. The objective is to segregate glass with similar materials having similar properties. In this study, a framework is proposed for designing and controlling the various sensors that will be used in machine.
