Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017216124A1] The invention relates to a sorting device with which objects (0) of a material flow (M) are sorted, comprising an image-capturing unit (1) with which the material flow (M) is optically captured and image data (4) of same (M) is generated, an evaluation unit (2) with which objects (0) in the material flow (M) are identified and classified, and a sorting unit (3) with which classified objects (0) of the material flow (M) are sorted, characterised in that one or more configuration parameters (5) characterising the material flow (M) in terms of the configuration of the objects (0) therein is determined with the evaluation unit (2) from the generated image data (4), and in that one or more evaluation parameters (6, 8) controlling the identification and classification of the objects (0) via the evaluation unit (2) is/are used on the basis of the determined configuration parameter/s (5).
