Sorting TRIZ Cases

Alloy analysis adjusts fraction limits dynamically, allowing compensated pieces while keeping the target alloy within limits.

Density-based sorting misclassifies cast alloys; X-ray fluorescence and machine learning separate 319, 360, and wrought aluminum alloys.

Central input-number sorting reduces local space and processing time while helping deliverers begin tours promptly.

A sensor-guided pivoting arm rapidly ejects defective conveyor objects while preserving flow continuity and reducing damage.

Palletized cans of different flavors are stored between production and packaging lines for automated retrieval and multi-flavor assembly.

A translating reject unit diverts defective pharmaceutical articles while intact articles continue into containers without conveyor halts.

A compact conveyor loop uses grid carriages and pick-and-place transfers to reduce jamming and protect mixed-case articles.

A pusher-based indexing line combines positioning, vision inspection, and rejection to separate usable frozen products.

Sensors inspect containers during conveyor movement, combining integrity checks with automated diversion of defects.

This mineral separator uses neutron and X-ray attenuation to classify lithium or boron ore and reduce water, chemicals, and infrastructure.

A linear rail, dual-view cameras, and automatic size adjustment improve screw sorting while reducing manual setup errors.

RFID readers and database lookups automate current placard generation, reducing rework and waste in distribution networks.
