ALR4000 is doing for the Recycling World what the TESLA is doing for electric vehicles…we accelerate change and make advanced technology affordable. We elevate your recycling facility with the best of what European Robotics Technology has to offer. Votechnik with the support of German industrial robotics KUKA and industrial automation controls Siemen AG is leading the way in advanced deep tech solutions for the circular economy of the future.
Does your facility receive large tonnage (~700+ tonnes) of waste LCDs per annum?
Are you manually disassembling these LCDs or exporting the problem?
Are you loosing revenue or barely breaking even on your in-house LCD recycling?
These are the challenges facing many SME recyclers across Europe and beyond as they deal with the onslaught of waste LCDs arriving at their recycling facility. As the relentless wave of waste displays continues to grow and expand, recyclers are struggling to keep up. In particular, SME recyclers are the backbone of the European recycling industry and are facing the harshest conditions to deal with these wastes without the capability to invest massive capital into bespoke technology development, which in turn can be risky. Votechnik have spent 10 years with highly qualified teams of engineers and scientists qualifying and derisking the technology.

Votechnik Technology at KUKA

Votechnik specifically focused on depollution of the displays allowing their subsequent shredding and contributing to circular economy by retaining the secondary raw materials value of these waste fractions. The ALR4000 technology meets the needs of and empowers the SME recycling ecosystem while building out the technology infrastructure needed for our cities and communities dealing with vast growing stream of waste displays.

ALR4000 Demonstration Sites

Votechnik with the support of the European Commission has developed a Centre of Excellence Demonstration site for the ALR4000 technology in Ireland. The objectives of the ALR4000 Centre of Excellence are to achieve the following:

A visible on the map technology lighthouse showing the environmental benefits of the ALR4000 technology
Showcase the contribution of the recycling plant to the Sustainable Development Goals
Record the positive impact of the ALR4000 technology on the local environment
Illustrate the economic benefit of the ALR4000
