Company Profile

CommodasUltrasort a wholly-owned subsidiary of Norway-based TITECH AS, is the leading provider of sensor-based sorting systems for the mining industry.

With sensor developments and fast data processing, numerous opportunities present themselves - notably in the field of dry separation techniques which utilise new options for sorting materials. Adaptation of analytical methods such as near infrared detection or intelligent image recognition and evaluation have led to remarkable innovations in automatic sorting machines. Today, many sensor-based devices are available in the sphere of primary and secondary raw materials, delivering more cost-efficient operation and higher throughputs in comparison to traditional processing techniques. As the application ranges of these sorting machines continue to expand, the relevance of sensor-based sorting techniques is increasing in all areas of processing.

CommodasUltrasort always continues to search out and expand options for extracting and sorting raw materials, to provide customers with a more extensive product line and enhanced services in custom sorting systems. Sensor-based sorting machines from CommodasUltrasort make it possible to significantly increase the efficiency and lifetime of a mine and to make use of deposits that could not previously be mined economically.

Whether diamonds, gemstones, coal, precious metals such as gold and platinum, all metallic ores and numerous minerals, the sensors recognize the target material on the basis of typical characteristics such as color, atomic density, transparency or conductivity.

The sorting technology presents a unique, efficient and cost effective alternative to traditional beneficiation processes, particularly where conventional procedures have either failed or are ineffective.

The recent merger between Commodas and Ultrasort brings new innovations to the mining industry. Both acknowledged as leaders in this highly specialized field of sensor-based sorting technology, now constitute a joint corporation operating at a global level, providing state-of–the-art systems, quality and excellence in automated material identification and sorting for the mining and mineral processing industries.
