Outline of Final Research Achievements

In recycling of insulated wire factories, operators manually adjust the airflow of air classifier while checking the tailings discharged. However, the adjustments are done by trial and error. In this study, we tried to develop the monitoring system that calculates the ratio of Cu and PVC in the tailings as a substitute for the operator’s eyes. Using the Acoustic Emission (AE) signal of the collision sound between Cu / PVC particles and an AE sensor head, we carried out waveform analysis, and frequency analysis using the Wavelet transform. In our image processing, applying Otsu's thresholding twice onto images, we succeeded to extract object from background automatically without losing any black particles. Moreover, we also applied discrimination analysis on saturation histogram of sample image to calculate the ratio of PVC to Cu, using respective basic saturation histograms of Cu and PVC. As a result, the estimation error of proposed system was less than 1%.
