TOMRA and Levitated Metals teams together in front of aluminum alloys to be sorted

Levitated Metals fosters new recycled aluminum markets leveraging AUTOSORT™ PULSE’s elemental analysis

Levitated Metals, New Caney, Texas, already had a successful business transforming Zorba into high-quality, valued Twitch with low magnesium and iron content. But seeing the product’s wrought aluminum downcycled into cast aluminum was viewed as a missed opportunity for Levitated. The recycler wanted to further process the material into recycled aluminum alloys valued by many wrought rolling mills. It was a step that required a new, once-in-a-generation technological evolution provided by TOMRA’s AUTOSORT™ PULSE.

MATIQ enhances sorting accuracy, material recovery and real-time process visibility with 14 TOMRA AUTOSORT™ units, AI-powered waste analyzers and digital monitoring tools.
