(openPR) - Woburn, MA, ---Visitors to Innov-X’s Booth 601 at the ISRI show† will see the new QXR-M, the only automated, high volume sorting and separating system that positively identifies and sorts mixed metal scrap into product specific categories based on highly specific material chemistry – improving recoveries and increasing asset value for metal recyclers. Ideal applications for the QXR-M include:

• Extracting Cu (or Cu alloys) from your heavies
• Sort your Al product by alloy content
• Clean and grade your stainless steel
• Meatball extraction
• Coin and precious metal extraction
• Plastics, glass and more

Based on proven X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology, the QXR-M offers many key advantages over physical property based techniques:

• Highly accurate sorting – typically >95%
• Highly efficient separation - >90%
• Highest value product in one pass - no reprocessing
• User defined capacities – 1 TPH to greater than 10 TPH

All of the QXR systems are designed to maximize cost effectiveness with a fast return on investment. Industrially hardened and reliable, they afford a low cost of ownership and are engineered with flexibility in mind:

• Quick on-site software modifications to meet changing criteria and new market demands
• Pricing as individual components or complete turnkey systems
• Each system is custom designed specifically to your process configuration
• Wide variety of conveyors, feeders and diverters to meet performance needs
• Integrates nicely with or can replace your current technologies - eddy current, magnetic separation, induction systems, heavy media separators, flotation devices, hand sorting, etc.
• Upgradeable to accommodate changes in application, capacity and accuracy
Visit booth 601 at the 2007 ISRI show to view a live demonstration of the QXR beginning at the top of each hour during the exhibition.

Innov-X Systems is a vital new force in the x-ray fluorescence (XRF) industry. Their systems perform fast, accurate chemical analysis in seconds to identify, differentiate and quantify most materials by elemental composition. Founded in 2001, they pioneered handheld XRF instrumentation using a miniature x-ray tube rather than radioactive isotopes. Innov-X has rapidly expanded into many other XRF areas. These include the new SEA-Mate™ System for marine on-board fluids analysis; MobiLab X50, a portable XRF that in comparison to handheld units, delivers higher power and superior performance throughout the periodic table. Innov-X has also taken a leading position in custom XRF and online/automated XRF instrumentation.

With R&D and manufacturing facilities in the U.S., Innov-X has offices in Europe (the Netherlands), and Asia (Hong Kong). They maintain sales and service alliances in Canada, the Middle East, Latin America and worldwide. Service, installation and training is available in over 100 countries.
