Success story: New Ruibang establish 300,000-ton annual intelligent sorting system with DataBeyond technology

DataBeyond Technology has partnered with New Ruibang Fiber Technology Co., Ltd. to implement advanced AI sorting technologies. Together, they are constructing eight production lines, each with a capacity of 60,000 tons annually, to produce hollow polyester staple fibers. This initiative aims to advance the industry's quality standards and set a new benchmark for green, circular production.

New Ruibang Fiber Technology Co., Ltd., based in Suqian, covers 539 acres with a total planned investment of 5 billion RMB. Phase 1 of the project, which began construction in March 2023, spans 233 acres with a building area of 120,000 square meters. The first production line was commissioned in March this year, with the second and third lines expected to come online in August. The company specializes in producing recycled hollow polyester staple fibers, which are widely used in home products, toys, and apparel, generating an annual sales revenue of 3.5 billion RMB.

How Does DataBeyond Technology Enhance Production Efficiency?

·High Purity: DataBeyond Technology combines AI and optoelectronic technologies, including a multi-label, multi-dimensional waste database and proprietary deep learning algorithms, to significantly improve the purity and efficiency of PET bottle sorting. The first phase of the project uses over ten DataBeyond optical sorters, including six AI+SPEC AI hyperspectral sorters, creating a robust technological advantage. These sorters can identify 256 wavelength bands and precisely remove various materials such as PC, PVC, PP, PE, PO, PETG, and composites, ensuring high product purity and addressing issues like PVC contamination.

·Standardized Incoming Material Quality Inspection: The incoming material quality is standardized using DataBeyond Technology's iiQC 1400 bale analysis line. It customizes detection for incoming material type, color, oil bottles, wide-mouth bottles, aluminum-plastic bottle, and residue (e.g., sand, metal, water-filled bottles, paper-filled bottles, iron wires). This enables precise pricing and clear visibility into material costs, with traceable quality information and real-time inventory monitoring.

·Automated Production: The process involves 11 stages and approximately 1 kilometer of equipment, including unpackers, conveyors, vibrating screens, de-labeling machines, bottle sorting, and pre-washing. The entire process is highly automated, requiring only about 30 workers, significantly increasing production efficiency.

·Simplified Maintenance: DataBeyond Technology's equipment features continuous monitoring via the DataBeyond Cloud Brain, allowing for remote upgrades, predictive maintenance, and 24/7 real-time management. This simplifies operations and reduces maintenance costs.
