Sorting system for sheeted material

摘要

A sorting system for sheeted material is presented, the sorting system including a path for travel of the sheeted material; an entrainment gas source for providing a first flow of gas in a direction substantially the same as the path for travel of the sheeted material; a plurality of receiving bins for receiving the sheeted material; a directional gas source associated with at least one of the plurality of receiving bins for providing a flow of gas directed to maintain the sheeted material entrained in the first flow of gas; a sorter associated with at least one of the plurality of receiving bins for directing selected ones of the sheeted material into such receiving bin.
