German term

Materialverschleppung

German to English Tech/Engineering Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.) recycling/waste management
Aufgrund von Eigenschaften, Übergrößen, Bauartbedingten Eigenschaften der Maschine und des Materiales muss mit einer Materialverschleppung gerechnet werden, d.h. es entstehen Fehlwürfe bei Ballistischer Fraktion und Überlauffraktion.

Attempted translation: Because of properties, oversizes, and design-related properties of the machine and of the materials, a [material displacement?] must be anticipated, i.e. the occurrence of sorting mistakes in the ballistic fraction and overflow fraction

This is from a document about a ballistic sorting system for solid waste, DSD material, recovered paper, etc.

Discussion

Gabriella Bertelmann Nov 4, 2010:
yes, that's how it makes sense
hazmatgerman (X) Nov 4, 2010:
is it correct to interpret thus: during sorting some items have fragments of other items of substantially different specific gravity adhering, and therefore reach the tray faster?

improper sorting/allocation , or: sorting errors
