We saw a 300% increase in throughput in our sorting department while dropping fires.

The Challenge

Hidden risks everywhere in high-volume electronics

In high-volume electronics recycling, devices arrive with embedded lithium-ion batteries and hazardous materials slip through manual sorting.

PedalPoint needed to catch these threats before shredding without slowing down operations.

The Solution

AI-powered detection with chemistry-specific battery classification

Solstice's X-ray system continuously scans incoming material, identifying hazardous items like lithium-ion batteries through dense material in seconds. Laser guidance pinpoints flagged items for removal.

Solstice can differentiate by battery chemistry - enabling precise downstream processing and compliance with strict handling protocols for different battery types.

The Results

Improving throughput with reduced risk

PedalPoint saw a 300% increase in sorting throughput while eliminating thermal events. QC staffing dropped 67% without sacrificing safety.

Chemistry-specific battery detection enabled precise downstream processing.
