UCY Q-series

Compact inline inspection and equipment protection.

UCY Q-series is a compact inline monitoring system that continuously evaluates material composition, logs quality metrics, and protects downstream machinery from damaging foreign objects.

Continuous quality monitoring

The compact sensing head continuously analyses material streams and logs long-term purity statistics where a full sorting machine is not required.

Mounts over existing conveyors

Engineered for 800–1,200 mm belt widths (adaptable for custom applications), Q-series retrofits easily over existing conveyors, chutes, and manual picking belts, with optional pneumatic ejection.

Advanced object detection

Deep learning computer vision reliably identifies objects without requiring complex laser systems. Optional SWIR spectroscopy adds polymer classification.

Mill protection interlocks

Configurable digital I/O triggers immediate alarms or conveyor stop signals when heavy, uncrushable, or hazardous items threaten granulators and shredders.

Integration

Flexible installation and plant connectivity.

The industrial control cabinet can be placed up to 50 m from the sensing head for versatile plant placement. Secure networking enables remote diagnostics, continuous data logging, and automated reporting.

  • Industrial Ethernet interface with optional integrated 4G/5G cellular modem
  • Standard digital I/O for direct PLC integration and line interlocks
  • Optional inductive sensor module for metal contaminant detection
  • Real-time purity metrics, threshold alerts, and mill-protection stop signals
