The fundamental aim of the system (and its great innovation potential) will be to replace multiple currently manual, expensive, hazardous and time-consuming tasks of WEEE materials pre-processing with correspondingly automatic robotic-based procedures.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-full wp-image-5537 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/indumetal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/hr-recycler-1.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/indumetal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/hr-recycler-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"567\" height=\"388\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27567%27%20height%3D%27388%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20567%20388%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27567%27%20height%3D%27388%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.indumetal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/hr-recycler-1-200x137.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.indumetal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/hr-recycler-1-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.indumetal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/hr-recycler-1-400x274.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.indumetal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/hr-recycler-1.jpg 567w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"(max-width: 567px) 100vw, 567px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Indumetal Recycling will carry out several pilot tests in its plant, located in Asua-Erandio, in order to assess the adaptation capacity of the robots, creating a hybrid collaboration environment, where humans and robots will harmoniously share and undertake at the same time different processing and manipulation tasks.<\/p>\n<p>With a budget of 7M\u20ac, this three year and a half project is coordinated by CERTH (Centre of Technology and Research Hellas) and counts on the participation of 12 partners from different European countries.
