Abstract
This paper explores the functionality and application of vision and sensor-based sorting systems using robots and PLC for recovering recyclable material from waste. This was part of the advanced programmable logic controllers (PLC) course at Michigan Technological University, this class project is performed on an integrated PLC, vision, and a robotic system. In the waste management industry, there is an opportunity to recover large amounts of aluminum and other recyclables from landfill. Automation is a possible solution to increase safety and efficiently while reducing the cost.
