In the news
- SORTBAT MACHINE Three things that surprised people when they spoke with Alexis Thoelen at ICBR Berlin (ICM AG): 1️⃣ Flexible by design The sorting system scales with your business. As your volumes grow, the system can be expanded at an incremental cost. No entirely new installation needed. 2️⃣ Continuous flow The system sorts continuously. No batching. No stop-start process. Just a constant flow. 3️⃣ Two streams, one machine Household batteries and battery packs can be sorted at the same time. Not one after the other. Built on
- Still time to catch us at ICBR Berlin. Alexis Thoelen and the team are at booth 50 today, ready to show what Xbat.ai brings to battery sorting: AI-powered technology that works across formats and chemistries, now being brought to the international market by Smiths Detection. #XbatAI #BatterySorting #SortbatMachine #CircularBattery
- SORTBAT MACHINE Smiths Detection is presenting our machine at ICBR Berlin (ICM AG). Alexis Thoelen, General Manager of Xbat.ai, was recently interviewed by Smiths Detection about its partnership with Xbat.ai, the joint venture of SORTBAT and VITO. This partnership combines our AI-powered battery sorting technology with Smiths Detection’s 75+ years of experience in detection. Behind this technology lies decades of battery expertise. Bebat brings 30 years of expertise in the responsible collection of used batteries, while
- SORTBAT MACHINE Around 3,000,000 scanned batteries. This is what our AI has learned from. ✅ Different formats. ✅ Different chemistries. ✅ Different stages of degradation. VITO’s scanned batteries database captures this variety, including mislabelled, corroded and damaged batteries that can be difficult to classify reliably by eye. Battery streams continue to grow in both volume and variety. For manual sorters, this means keeping up with an ever-growing range of battery formats and chemistries. The AI behind our sorting machine
- Our AI-powered battery sorting technology is now commercially available through Xbat.ai, together with its exclusive commercial partner Smiths Detection. Smiths Detection will showcase the technology at ICBR in Berlin from September 9 thru. 11. A major step from proven innovation at SORTBAT to bringing smarter, safer battery sorting to the global market. #XbatAI #SORTBAT #SmithsDetection #BatteryRecycling #AI #ICBR
