Danu Robotics’ Post

"Robotic waste sorting is inevitable, we just need to see it working well" was the common response from Material Recovery Facility (MRF) operators during Danu Robotics research phase. So building a demonstration facility to run their waste sorting system was also inevitable. Opening in April 2024, Danu's facility at the National Robotarium in Edinburgh will demonstrate their two arm 'Retrofit' system on dry mixed recyclable waste and soon the full system designed to sort across the whole mixed waste. Founder Amy (Xiaoyan) Ma said "we will show how accurate, operationally efficient and scalable the system is to customers who have been waiting for robotic systems to mature. Our robots are fit for purpose, designed and built to sort waste, they're not adapted from general purpose robots so are highly cost-efficient". Danu's series of systems are optimised for operational efficiency so are modular and use plug and play hardware - grippers can be replaced in minutes by on-site operators ensuring minimal downtime. Demonstrations are invite only, however Danu will explore educational opportunities for any organisation invested in the drive to a circular economy and the role recycling plays. info@danurobotics.com #RMAS #ESA #recycling #robotics #circulareconomy #wastesorting #manufacturing #zerowaste #DMR #MRF #materialrecoveryfacility #AI #retrofit
