Laser sorting system for secondary mineral processing
Achieve precision in material pre-concentration with cutting-edge laser technology that sorts and inspects particles by size, shape, and composition, optimizing your mineral output while reducing operational costs.

Sorts and Pre-Concentrates Mineral Particles
The PRO Secondary LASER Sorting Machine from TOMRA is a robust solution for mineral processing and pre-concentration. Featuring patented multi-channel laser scanning technology, it inspects particles double-sided to identify a range of material characteristics such as structure, color, and transparency. Ideal for applications in mining and industrial minerals, it efficiently sorts and handles particle sizes from 20mm to 120mm, enhancing throughput and quality of end-products like quartz, talc, and metallic concentrates. This machine’s compact design suits continuous, automated operations and integrates seamlessly with production lines. It offers connectivity to TOMRA Insight, a cloud-based data platform, for real-time performance monitoring. Renowned for its durability, long-term stability, and minimal maintenance requirements, the PRO Secondary LASER is engineered for reliability in demanding environments.
