A [[Ballistic Separator]] is a machine that sorts [[Waste|waste]] materials by separating flexible items from rigid ones. The machine, on an inclination, pushes light, flexible material up the screen/paddle and causes heavy rigid items to fall downwards<ref name="ref1">[https://www.machinexrecycling.com/products/mach-ballistic-separators/ Ballistic Separators]</ref>. This device is capable of sorting stones, [[Glass|glass]], [[Metal|metal]], [[Wood|wood]], [[Plastic|plastic]], [[Paper|paper]], containers, cans, [[Construction and Demolition Waste|construction and demolition waste]], other heavy items, [[MSW]] and [[Commercial and Industrial Waste|C&I waste]]<ref name="ref2">[https://www.zerowasterecycler.com/ballistic-separator-machine/ Ballistic Separator Machine]</ref>. The separator divides the [[Waste|waste]] input into three streams: 2-dimentional light and flat material, 3-dimentional heavy and rigid items, and fine pieces of [[Waste|waste]]. The angle of inclination and the speed of paddle rotation can be adjusted infinitely. The separation characteristics can be adjusted to changes in the [[Waste|waste]] stream at any time<ref>[https://www.turnerprocessequipment.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/SORT-O-MAT_Ballistic-Separator_EN.pdf SORT-O-MAT Ballistic Separator]</ref>. | A [[Ballistic Separator]] is a machine that sorts [[Waste|waste]] materials by separating flexible items from rigid ones.
