There is. The redpower sorting machine is a more complex device than diamond pipes, used in many advanced sorting machines.

There are many different problems that can happen ith a sorting machine. Here is a list of the necessities:

1. A repeating redstone current. This can come from a Timer.

2. A blue alloy current. This can come from Blue Alloy Wire connected to a Battery Box.

3. Pneumatic tubes coming in and out of the sorting machine

4. A buffer on the "in" end of the sorting machine, so that the sorting machine doesnt freeze when it has an item it cant process.

See if you have all of these, and if you still cant find out your problem, look for a tutorial on youtube.
