About

With ORDIVO, we are developing a generic and flexible sorting system specifically for SMEs, designed to address the challenges of sustainability, efficiency, and innovation. The transition to circular economies and sustainable food chains calls for smart ways to manage increasingly diverse product and material streams. Traditional sorting systems are often expensive or too application-specific. ORDIVO offers a scalable alternative. Together with Newcircle Technologies, we are building an on-site sorting machine capable of inspecting and sorting multiple product streams without costly, task-specific installations or manual labor. At the heart of the system is Newcircle Technologies’ AI-driven 3D vision system, which recognizes objects based on color, shape, and quality, combined with modular hardware from C-Tech. The result is a flexible and affordable system that can be easily adapted to new applications. The initial focus is on the raw materials and agri-food transition, where the prototype will be tested in an operational environment. In this way, we help SMEs take the step toward automation and data-driven quality control without major investments. This project is co-funded by the European Union and the Dutch government.
