An optical sorter is doing a sorting after color, reflection or form.
-
First, the optical sorter must be trained to distinguish between defective and high-quality seeds. This process begins by manually identifying defective seeds and impurities, which the sorter captures in multiple images from all angles. Similarly, images of high-quality seeds are also taken for reference.
After this, the optical sorter can accurately differentiate between defective and good seeds, as well as remove impurities, forgien material and ergot.
The product is then fed into multiple channels based on capacity. Each channel is equipped with cameras to detect defects. Any identified defects are precisely removed using an air nozzle.

An optical sorter is an efficient machine used in the processing line together with air and screen cleaners, indented cylinders, and gravity tables. It ensures exceptionally high purity levels while minimizing the loss of good seeds.
Unlike other machines, an optical sorter can distinguish and separate seeds that are identical in size and shape but differ in color, providing a level of precision that other sorting methods cannot achieve.
