FAQs

  • Our technology reduces energy consumption, minimises mechanical wear, and decreases material waste, leading to substantial operational cost savings. By extending equipment life and lowering energy needs, AcoustoFab’s systems provide a cost-effective solution over time.

  • Our machines can sort a variety of materials, such as seeds for agricultural applications, delicate pharmaceutical powders, and small electronic parts. For example, in seed sorting, our technology can classify by size, shape, and density without causing bruising or contamination, making it ideal for high-quality agricultural processing.

  • In industries like pharmaceuticals, non-contact sorting prevents contamination of delicate powders and chemicals. For instance, handling seeds or tiny electronic components without physical contact eliminates damage or static buildup, preserving the integrity and longevity of each item.

  • Our systems use significantly less energy than traditional pneumatic systems, typically consuming around 200W per metre of belt width. This efficiency makes them an environmentally friendly choice and helps reduce operational costs.

  • Our technology can perform multi-category sorting, ideal for complex applications. For example, in agritech, it can sort seeds by multiple criteria—like size, density, and color—within a single process. This adaptability also applies to recycling, where small electronic components can be sorted by type without causing damage.

  • Absolutely. For example, in high-throughput seed sorting, our systems can process 15–30 items per second depending on size. This speed, combined with precise sorting accuracy, ensures reliable output even in large-scale operations such as bulk seed distribution or pharmaceutical sample processing.

  • AcoustoFab’s modular technology is designed to integrate easily with current sorting belts and infrastructure. Its flexible design allows for rapid implementation, enhancing existing systems without extensive changes or downtime.

  • Our acoustic levitation systems consume less energy than traditional pneumatic systems, produce minimal mechanical wear, and reduce waste, aligning with sustainability goals by extending equipment life and lowering overall energy use.

  • Our technology supports classification beyond simple binary sorting, allowing for multiple categories based on size, density, or other attributes. This capability provides tailored sorting solutions, optimising accuracy and output quality.

  • Our sorting systems are designed for straightforward installation with minimal modifications required. The modular, flexible setup allows for easy integration into existing facilities without extensive infrastructure changes or downtime.
